NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier Anybody know the largest USB HDD/SDD that can be utilized by the NAD M10? | |
Lumin U1 vs Lumin U1 mini + sbooster? @goofyfoot no, I’m not using the Debussy anymore. Replaced with a Bricasti M3 DAC w/MDX upgrade. | |
Searching for a dac that matches the Marantz If you don’t like the RME ADI-2 then you should upgrade to a better CD player. That Marantz isn’t known for having a decent DAC. | |
Is it true that a digital cable has to acclimate to your system? If it sounded bad at first you are just getting used to the bad sound mixed with expectation bias. | |
Lumin U1 vs Lumin U1 mini + sbooster? I owned both the Lumin U1 and dCS Network Bridge. For a number of reasons I don’t own either one now, I found the U1 sounded better to me than the Network Bridge. I was using both with a dCS Debussy DAC. | |
Audiophile Approved USB Hub? Beware of anything that has the label of “audiophile approved”. | |
Does It Even Matter? +1 | |
Up From Oppo? What are you looking to replace? DAC? CD Transport with built in DAC? It isn't clear from your posting so that is probably why you haven't received any responses | |
Searching for a dac that matches the Marantz The ND8006 isn’t known for having a high quality DAC implementation. Having said that I think the RME ADI-2 FS DAC might give you what you are looking for and a much better sound too vs. what you have now. | |

NAS with RAID for streaming to Sonos Connect If you accidentally delete a file, folder, have malware or a virus or have corrupted files on your NAS a RAID array will propagate this to all drives.A RAID array isn't a viable backup device. | |
Bricasti DAC owners I have the M3 and installed the MDx board myself. I haven't had any issues. | |
NAS with RAID for streaming to Sonos Connect I use a Synology NAS to serve my Sonos AMP. It has two 10TB drives and has served me well for over two years. I moved to an Antiopodes DX2 to serve music in my main system. | |
Bricasti M1 - M5 - M12: Network Player - My REVIEW w/OEM Response Brian Zolner @ Bricasti @hgeifman the biggest issue with using the Mac for streaming is the noisy power supply and the poorly executed USB port. It will work and sound OK, but you should look to get a standalone renderer/streamer.I own the Bricasti M3 DAC with the MDx u... | |
Bricasti M1 - M5 - M12: Network Player - My REVIEW w/OEM Response Brian Zolner @ Bricasti The M5 is superior in my opinion to the Lumin and the M5 is made in the USA. When you call or email Bricasti you will most likely hear back from the owner of the company. Bricasti is a first class company. I own their M5 and M3 DAC and they are t... |
