| New streamer Aurender users, I was reading some of the user guides, and noticed they do upscaling. I know this is system dependent & that my results may vary, as a starting point, do you use it? If so, to what level. For example, the max that your DAC can ... | |
| Phono stage hum - Rega Aria I had a similar issue with my Aria. I had to move my Aria on the opposite side of my shelf from my TT & Amp (4-5’), made sure my cable runs were also isolated and attached my TT ground cable to my preamp (which has a true ground) vs my Aria. ... | |
| New streamer @lalitk Perfect! That was one of the pluses mentioned by Upscale when I talked to them about my potential choices. Great to hear that was true! Can’t wait until it arrives. | |
| New streamer Great points. Another reason I selected the N150 was form factor (width). I needed to put my new streamer on the top shelf, left of my center. The A8 was too wide. Another factor was price. I bought it at 5:00 AM, the first day it was listed as ... | |
| New streamer @mojo771 The Aurender N150 has only one review I can find, therefore I am not positive that it is vastly superior to the A6/A8. There are certainly no professional head to head tests. Steve Huff stated the Lumin U2 mini was superior to the A6 (&... | |
| New streamer @mojo771 This is a quote from another post. He too was questioning his Qutest purchase. He then bought an N150. He stated: “The N150 is in-house and on its second day with 10 hours of total listening time. I’ve got one main thing to say— the p... | |
| New streamer Most people recommend having a separate DAC. I bought my first DAC as a low cost solution to my new Marantz AVR having cheap TI DAC Chips because of the AKM fire. The low end Schiit was a significant improvement. My system has come a long way sinc... | |
| DAC upgrade @gkelly Thanks! I think I will be happy! | |
| New streamer @lalitk Thank you! I think I will! | |
| New streamer @lalitk Thank you, I think I will be very happy. Will do on the performance. Stealing my high quality PC from my AVR (with the recent add of my Rouge pre, it is now only used for HT). Bought a good quality USB cable (XLO UltraPLUS) & have qu... | |
| DAC upgrade Just bought an Aurender N150 & look forward to its arrival. I think it will be a great match for my system & my Chord. Thanks again! I’m now done… at least for now. 😏 | |
| New streamer j just bought a slightly used Aurender N150 at the Music Room. Thank you for all your recommendations, to come to the (I believe) right choice. I look forward to its arrival! Thanks again. | |
| New streamer Just talked to Chris at Upscale Audio. First, my 3 choices are his most popular and most recommended streamers in that price range. Sound wise, he said they were all very close but ranked them as follows; N150 (only in critical listening mode), ... | |
| New streamer I use only Qubuz, so no issues with any OS. While I appreciate the various recommendations, I personally am down to my stated 3. The local Aurender dealer has no N150’s in stock so struck out there. Calling Upscale shortly. Thanks. | |
| New streamer @evank BTW, what DAC do you use? |
