| Almost equality I’ll try. But it’s difficult. LOL | |
| How important is spending time with your gear? The jungle of black boxes staring at me is not so appealing. I DO like the appearance of my speakers though. Just having sounds emanating from them would be fine for me. | |
| Almost equality stevewharton, Good question. The transport and streaming sound virtually the same, with maybe sometimes a slightly better definition with the transport. But it’s very close on most tracks. | |
| Almost equality The Benchmark DAC is anything but harsh. Both the Benchmark DAC and amp are extremely tonally accurate. Coupled with a tubed Conrad-Johnson preamp the sound is very sweet yet finely detailed. As a classical musician, I know what real music sound... | |
| Almost equality curiousjim, Thank you. You’ll find streaming to be a whole new world of enjoyment. | |
| Almost equality bayliner, “it basically comes down to the quality of the recording now” Exactly. | |
| Almost equality Dinov, Thank you! | |
| Almost equality eccyn, is that Mahler 3rd recording on Nonesuch by any chance with Jasha Horenstein? | |
| Almost equality Thank you very much. | |
| Almost equality Tuberist, I completely agree with you. it IS amazing how far digital has come. I, too now mostly listen to Qobuz and Idagio even though I have many thousands of CDs and records. It’s gotten so good I don’t feel I’m compromising. | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 I’m sorry but I don’t have that answer for you. | |
| Almost equality mijostyn, Yes, my system just blossomed when I added Benchmark. it’s amazing how good hi res files from Qobuz sound. | |
| Almost equality elliottbnewcombjr, it’s taken about three or four years. audioguy85, I do have the CDt. It’s an excellent transport, and a very good value. It really benefitted from the addition of a $300 Audioquest power cord. | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 I’m not sure I understand your question, but if it helps to know, you can access Qobuz independent of the StreamMagic app. | |
| Does Anyone Else Member the Golden Age of Audio Insults and Product Degradation? I once returned a Micro Sekei turntable to a dealer who without hesitation hurled it on the floor and proclaimed “Another Micro Turkey!” |
