| I want a streamer The Lumin U1 is the best streamer (no DAC) I have used in my system. | |
| NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier Did you pay $99.00 for the full Dirac Live solution or are you using the out of the box functionality? I haven't tried it yet | |
| NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier I forgot to mention, but it should be obvious, the NAD M10 has a built in DAC so all you need is a pair of speakers to have a complete system | |
| Questions on next steps with my power amp Power cables and speaker wires are the last thing you need to worry about! | |
| Alert, Warning, and Caution about Modified Components @clearthink has inhaled too much of something. His post makes zero sense and adds zero value to the forum. Smoke on, smoke on! | |
| Manufacturers pushing their products and agenda in the forums. @audiotroy never likes a product he doesn’t sell | |
| Anything wrong with PS Audio DirectStream DACs? I own a Directstream DAC and don’t agree at all with the 750 hour burn in. It sounds great out of the box and you may notice small changes for the first hundred hours or so, but 750 hours...this is excessive and not needed. | |
| The JC Whitney syndrome I agree with the OP. There are many tweaks that just don’t work and are just silly. One man’s tweak is another man’s snake oil. | |
| Why the fascination with subwoofers? I bought the Focal Sopra No 1’s knowing they would be light in the bass region. Just picked up a pair of JL Audio F112 suns with custom floor stands. Wow! I had an old Definitive Technology sub before but having two subs of much higher quality ... | |
| DAC Suggestions for Aurender N100C I have a PS Audio Direcstream DAC. Excellent DAC and very good discounts can be had for a new one (~40%] | |
| Esoteric F-07, F-05, Levinson 585 Mark Levinson No 585 is superior to anything listed here including the Naim and Esoterics. I own the Mark Levinson 585 and the Esoteric I-03 Integrated, the predecessor to the F-05 and F-07.Go with the 585 and get a great integrated you will keep! | |
| Oppo 205 guagers selling used units for twice the price... The 205s aren’t worth the MSRP in my opinion. They were overpriced from the start. The DACs are just OK and people are paying big bucks for 205s based on hype, not sound | |
| DAC Suggestions for Aurender N100C @mgrif104 I have compared the Aurender N100 to a Lumin U1 and the Lumin was superior. Perhaps you meant the Lumin U1MINI? If not perhaps you should upgrade your DAC or USB cable. | |
| Song (or music) you want played at your funeral. Leonard Cohen - “You Want it Darker” seems like a nice song for me | |
| Audio racks I love my Timber Nation Rack. 2" thick shelves and 135 pounds of solid wood. I'm not hearing anything but the music. |
