in search of audio nirvana ..... It has to be something I've listened to a lot over the long term. No single album or song or passage of music does it for me unless the improvement or deficiency is extremely obvious. It may take me weeks of long term listening sessions with wide ... | |
I believe I experienced great PRAT for the first time PRAT may be the most obscure audio terms I can think of. I relate it to music and performance far more than to system. Both pace and rhythm are generated by musician, not system. Timing even more obscure, this has most meaning to me in relation to... | |
Listening without interpretation...is it impossible? Srajan Ebaen of 6moons fame certainly has an ability to relate his personal experience to audio system listening. He tries very hard to give context to his listening preference, by context I mean his emotional states. His writing dense, bother... | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @dbb After further research I've decided to move in another direction. I have Sonore opticalrendu coming in tomorrow. This will replace one of my TPLink FMC and SOTM sms200 Neo. I've been streaming for six years now, greatest improvements I'v... | |
Don’t want to freak you out… Like to attach my cats ears/horns to my head. The good thing is these horns are adjustable, rotate as needed. | |
The hunt is over Yep, never say never We need evidence this is possible, lets hear from audiophiles who've gone long period of time without changing a thing. How bout thread asking this very question. | |
Genre: Sacred or Early World Music, what's your go to? Funny, because I'm not religious, but I much prefer the sacred. The sacred feels universal and timeless, much early world music feels alien to me, primitive and tribal. But then, certain early world music can feel spiritual, can't exactly put my ... | |

Lifespan of components? Heat is major cause of component wear, manage heat and get longer life. And then we have much faster evolution and innovation in certain audio categories. Take streaming for example, I consider these components consumables, certain components ... | |
Listening without interpretation...is it impossible? Are non-audiophiles non-audiophiles simply because they don't speak our language, or is something inherent to them? Could teaching them our audio language bring out the audiophile in them? Is there in fact a hidden audiophile within every human, o... | |
China built tube amps @hifijones Do you think one of those self learning remotes could be substituted? I too had Chinese dac remote go bad, in my case I found bad solder joint, reflowed, good to go. This only failure I've incurred with Chinese products. And it is p... | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Yep, usb is superior way to go with many dacs. Also has the advantage of using various usb rendererers/streamers and fiber conversion. For most, usb beats even I2S which should have inherent advantage of native topology within dac, therefore, no c... | |
A different world Above is partially incorrect, brain fade. More specifically, you bridge to a second ethernet port in order to split server and streamer duty. Most servers have only a single ethernet port, usb out to dac or usb renderers, perhaps I2S, spdif, etc.... | |
A different world @audiom3 I'm in process of converting to all fiber, just purchased fiber streamer, next will be fiber server. Doing fiber conversions via two FMC certainly one of best prior upgrades. Also, another upgrade I don't hear much about is bridging... | |
