Looking for a network player Check out the review of the Sonore microRendu on computeraudiophile. It is very impressive, flexible and a sonic steal at its price point. Cheers,Spencer | |
Fremer tours Audio Research. Kudos to Mikey for showing a sense of humor and not taking it all too seriously. | |
Upsampling - but seriously folks On computeraudiophile the rage seems to be using HQ Player to upsample to quad DSD. There's about a 100pg long thread about it there, which I don't have the patience to read. I can't recommend it because I haven't heard it(would like to), but it's... | |
Integrated for Vandersteen 2ce sigII One of the top Vandy dealers in the country, Johnny Rutan at Audio Connection often demos Rogue/Vandy together as an example of a system of superior value. It's a nice match and Rogue is well built stuff, with great service. Cheers,Spencer | |
Bookshelf speakers on a budget New Elacs designed by Andrew Jones are all the buzz. Cheers,Spencer | |
Considering buying a CD transport If that's the case, I'd suggest that it wouldn't be worth it to upgrade the transport alone. I'd rather see the money go into a dac if yours wasn't up to snuff, but I don't have any experience with the Bryston and know it's got plenty of fans arou... | |

An Amplifier Change for my Wilson Sophia 2's? If the issue appears more with analog, you should experiment by increasing the gain on the phono pre even if it's already at 60 or 65db. Hopefully you have a decent sound meter. If not, a free smartphone app will work for music that's midrange-cen... | |
grateful dead dick's picks @jafant I'll send you a PM to avoid getting off topic. Cheers,Spencer | |
Is my room going to suck Buy a long set of inexpensive Mogami or Canare interconnects and use the bigger room. Place amp only in front of the fireplace on a floor rack with speakers on either side. Put all your other gear on the side wall using the long interconnects. The... | |

grateful dead dick's picks Jafant, what exactly are you asking, are you trying to burn wav or flac files onto a disc in data disc format? Are you trying to make a CD that will play in any CD player? Are you using windows or mac? Cheers,Spencer | |
Top Ten Rock Vocalists Yeah, but The Blues Had a Baby and They Named It Rock and Roll. When I saw this thread I was listening to "Bring It On Home To Me" from the "Too Late To Stop Now" LP. Yes, it's blues, but if that's not rock, I don't know what is. Like OP said, don... | |
Does anyone know how you can get any parts for a Pro-ac speaker ? partsexpress sell them cheap in 2 sizes, could be the same kind. Cheers,Spencer | |
Calling all VDH Colibri Fanatics and Experts ... @rauliruegas Thanks for that. Perhaps I'll experiment with a slightly higher level of damping fluid in the arm's trough. Cheers,Spencer |
