| Streamer for LTA Aero I love my Innuos Zen Mk3! I remember when the Mk3 versions of both the Zen and the Zenith came out, and I was trying to decide between them. I watched a review by John Darko, in which he said that there was only a very slight difference in sound ... | |
| Best streamer, don't want Roon, don't want a screen, A DAC is OK but not necessary I've been extremely happy with my Innuos Zen Mk3. The Sense app for playing music is fantastic. In fact, I know several dealers who consider Sense to be the best streaming app currently available, preferring it over Roon (and others) based on soun... | |
| Cardas vs Cardas vs Shunyata interconnects @w123ale I'm glad the Cardas Cygnus cables have worked out well for you. Consistent with the comments from @decooney earlier in this thread, Clear Reflection interconnects and speaker cables have been solid in my system. Blanket comments about Ca... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @oczed I enjoyed your post. A calm, logical response to criticism is always welcome! | |
| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing @atmasphere Thanks for letting me know about the HiFi+ review. I was able to track it down, and it presents a very positive view of the sound quality of the A-S Class D amps. Going forward, these monoblocks will be high on my list of amps I'd lik... | |
| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing @tubeguy45 Can you comment on the fullness and tonal richness of the A-S Class D amps in your system? So many of the new generation of Class D amps (whether GanFET or MOSFET) receive praise for their resolution but are rarely described as outsta... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @acmaier3 I recognize your frustration in not getting a product that you expected would have a built-in streamer. I hope you find a DAC/streamer that you will enjoy. My situation is a little different. When I bought my original DS DAC, I alread... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @acmaier3 Don't keep everyone in suspense. Aren't you going to mention the response from the head of PS Audio when he suggested that you email him directly about your concerns. I understood from the PSA Forum that PSA was providing an RMA so that... | |
| Thiel Owners I don't know if this is of help in tracking down what is going on in your system, but I do not hear the same "flutter/buzz/vibration" sound you hear when I play a Qobuz FLAC file of the Boz Skaggs track on my Thiel 2.2s at moderate volume levels. ... | |
| Thiel Owners barnett, do you get the same sound if you switch the speaker wires so that you are now using the right speaker in place of the left speaker? | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev Thanks for the additional comments on the perceived midrange dip with your Innuos setup. When I think of what makes a system sound warm, I think particularly about some emphasis in how it is handling upper bass and lower mids. So if an Innu... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev Do you have any hypotheses about why you are hearing a lower midrange dip in the frequency response of your Innuos server/streamer? Is this a dip in a measured frequency response curve or a perceived dip based on your experience with your r... | |
| If you had to narrow your choices to 4 - 5 speakers Borresen X3 PS Audio FR20 Vandersteen Sonus Faber Magnepan And if you don’t like the sound of any of these speakers, just look for a used Thiel 3.7 or 2.7 at a bargain price. | |
| would innuos mk3 streamer benefit from network filter My Innuos streamer/server is also a Zen Mk3. I use a Network Acoustics Eno filter on the ethernet cable feeding into my Zen. Other NA ethernet filters, such as the Muon Pro, are reported to be even better but they are more expensive than the Eno. ... | |
| would innuos mk3 streamer benefit from network filter Which Innuos Mk3 streamer are you using? Is it the ZenMini Mk3 without the linear power supply unit, the ZenMini Mk3 with LPSU, the Zen Mk3, or the Zenith Mk3? The sound does get better as you move up the chain, and the strategies to improve the s... |
