| Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit Get your network and streamer optimized, you won't go back to playing cd's. I'm at point where I cannot tell between cd rips and streams. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC With your list of mods! Only reinforces my sense stock mac mini is your weak link, server quality does make a difference. If you were to keep mini, Uptone mods, for off the self, Roon Nucleus, any NUC or can go way upscale. I'm planning on diy sol... | |

| Compact Disc and Vinyl Habits Well, I have probably near 3K vinyl, 2.5K cd's, adding to vinyl all the time as gifts. People all too willing to give me their albums, just clutter to them and don't want the hassle of selling. But thern I stream probably 90% of the time, str... | |
| Herron Audio VTPH-2A - Modwright PH 9.0X - Icon audio ps1 mkii @audiosaurusrex Keep us informed as to sound quality as unit burns in.

| Elrog 300b vs we300b Another issue when going to boutique film caps is space to fit. If one has pcb may be impossible, even with point to point may have space issues. Major reason I'm looking at VH Audio ODAM for future mods where space at premium. These look like the... | |
