| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? @missioncoonery Don't know how much you watched but he had a top model MSB DAC & Streamer. It tells me it's "in the" media. I had an Esoteric K-01 for many years. A nice player but was easily beat by my TP. I now own a PS Audio PerfectWav... | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? For what it's worth I just came across the Jay's Audio Lab video "Vinyl Vs Digital: Which Is THE BEST?" Worth a watch. It mirrors my conclusions exactly and compares the high-end of both formats coming to the same conclusion I have. | |
| Qobuz + Lumin = Headache Sense is a great app that will only get better. | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? AR-2ax, how cool. I bought a pair of those new in HS. Then moved up to the AR-3a. Best speaker of the day. I drove them with a Dynaco Pre & Power that I built. It was a killer system. | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? I think that one thing we can all agree vinyl is a major hassle. Sone (not me) may enjoy the work. And then there's 45RPM.......... Ugh. But when the needle drops on my copy of Classic Records 45RPM series of Time Our I'm transported to anoth... | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? You're right about cost difference. I recently upgraded my entire vinyl setup along with the digital. Spent 3 times as much on vinyl. Found the greatest improvement with the DAC. It might be that a DCS based digital system, for example, could t... | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? As I said I have a Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter that isolates EMI/RF interference optically. Don't know if the Muon product would help? But thanks for suggestion. . | |
| Worthwhile to upgrade from Roon nucleus to innuos zenith mk3 I have run Roon on my Zenith Mk3 with absolutely no problems (no DSP). That said I prefer the Sense App's SQ and it is very intuitive to use. | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? I use my Mac mini as a Roon core to drive other systems in the house. I do love Roon but unfortunately Sense sounds better with Innuos products. I also agree it's fun to run both types of media. It just amazes me that vinyl can sound so good ... | |
| Denafrips Terminator II and Gaia DDC I believe the TT2 has the better clock. Try reversing the interconnects. Also make sure you turn on clock on both units. This is a setting change described in user manual. | |
| Do I need a streamer? I recently added an Innuos Zenith and USB reclocker to replace my Mac Mini. My DAC is a Terminator Plus. The delta on SQ improvement was small. It did add other features that I do like as the OS is simplified. The biggest improvement I got was ... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 I prefer NOS as it results in a more Detail sound in my system. I have tried both OS modes. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 I own a Terminator Plus which I use in my main system. Its feed by an Innuos Zenith Mk3 and a Phoenix USB. Love the result. I bought a Terminator 2 for my second system with a Gaia DDC. Fabulous results. Have not heard the other DACS. | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? I'm part of the all the above crowd. Ultimately I think what's best is determined by the media itself. I have many vinyl recordings that easily beat the digital version and vice versa. Currently use terminator plus with Gaia on Mac mini. The D... | |
| Why Purchase A CD Player or Transport ? I just purchased the PS Audio SACD transport. Primary reason was I had several hundred SACD discs that I could not play. I use a Terminator Plus with Gaia and MacMini. Very happy with purchase but agree with those who say it's an easy decision ... |
