What does your Virtual System page say about you? OP, Get out your phone and take a photo, post in the virtual system area. Takes only a minute. you can post a new photo with each change. It would be fun to watch. @ghdprentice I will do so this weekend. Thanks for the push. | |
What does your Virtual System page say about you? @newbee Doh! I didn't think about just listing my components, without pictures, as you did. That would solve my "too messy to photograph while moving too frequently" problem. Maybe I'll add a virtual system soon... I also wonder if people who use... | |
220v / 110v - Anthem STR Power Amplifier Another vote for using a transformer. Be careful on Amazon, as there are a lot of junk products that do not carry any safety certifications. I have been happy using Krieger brand products. They are UL and CSA certified, and utilize toroidal tran... | |
Axiom to remember +1 @gdaddy1 ! | |
Speaker Jumper/Link Cables - Best Ones? Nordost Valhalla, Tara Labs Omega Evolution OR.. I had bipolar speakers in the past. Lithium helped immensely. 😜 | |
Which Schitt Audio Equalizer operates as a loudness switch for low level listening Another happy Loki Max owner here. If you have a remote for volume control, you’ll want a remote for your “loudness” control, too. Similar to others, I started with approximations to a few Fletcher Munson curves stored as presets on the Loki Max, ... | |
BEST SPEAKER THAT COMES TO LIFE AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS +1000 Fletcher Munson It's settled science. I bought a Schiit Loki Max a while back. I use one preset that resets everything to zero change, where I can twiddle the knobs to adjust poor recordings. The other two I have programmed in different ... | |
Package Has Disappeared in USPS System The package arrived today, and, as it was superbly packed by the vendor, it came through in fine shape. @mike4597 Glad to hear it arrived safe and sound. Here's one more data point on USPS Priority Shipping and Tracking, from sending my tax ret... | |
Qobuz Skipping or Short Pauses Changing the DNS on my router to the Google standards of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 Haven't had any problems since this change..... it works flawlessly. @duckey Great advice in general! Another good DNS server is 1.1.1.1, run by Cloudflare/APNIC S... | |
Speakers for low-level listening +1 on the Loki Max. | |
a subwoofer dongle anyone tried it ? moderator NOT selling this ! @roxy54 Your punctuation (?) is fascinating. A creative way to get left-right justification without access to variable kern fonts… | |
a resonance in my left ear If it is a resonance in your ear, and not something else, you could experiment with DSP or digital EQ (you already have it if you have Roon, for example). Just create a notch filter centered around your resonant frequency, and adjust the Q value w... | |
ifi Neo Streamer I tried it, curious about its high bitrate I2S, but returned it. I found the software flakey (for example, the entire unit had access issues if you set a static IP address, even though that was clearly contemplated as it was a menu option). I was... | |
Bose buys McIntosh You may not be aware that Bose is owned by Massachusetts Institute of Technology - donated entirely by Amar Bose upon his death. MIT’s endowment fund exceeds $23.5 Billion. @musicearlyadopter If I recall correctly, the shares Amar Bose donated ... | |
HQPlayer and old Mac Mini 2012 Hi @ubdu -- I am currently running HQP on a 2012 Mac Mini (part of evaluating whether I like HQP). What I have determined experimentally is: You can upsample PCM safely to about 384-768 k. If you go higher, you will get occasional clicks/pops d... |
