| Analog vs. digital Close minded people have no chance to learn since they refuse to allow an experience that could cause them to reevaluate. @overthemoon Perhaps fairly easy to build a digital setup if playing cd's, Streaming may not be an easy plug and play en... | |
| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) For those who believe contemporary music and artists suck, give us a list of the all the artists who suck. | |
| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) Shazam, streaming is the key, so much good music made in recent decades, just not in commercial releases. I'm sure at least 25% of listening 2010-now releases. | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? I don't know if some don't get it,but ALL servers ARE COMPUTERS. They all have noise producing motherboards, most run off noisy switching power supplies, and they connect rendering ports directly to this noisy motherboard. They also use the clocks... | |
| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) I tend to agree with article as it pertains to 'commercial' music, however, I assume much prejudice from certain cohorts. The music of our youth and adolescence is often perceived as best since it elicits fond memories of those discovery years. So... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? I don't get why the guy inserted Phoenix between Devialet and ultrarendu. The Devialet has non-optimal usb rendering so I understand the improvment using sonore and phoenix. Reviewer should place UltraRendu directly after Devialet, listen, then ad... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? @tjag What you should look for in all these reviews is what server is being used, this will tell you what purpose Phoenix serving. I suspect everyone of those servers is not optimizing usb rendering, this means using inferior clocking and noisy us... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? I surmise these reclockers derive most of their improvements by lowering the noise floor rather than the reclocking. Servers are likely the noisiest component in streaming system, the Phoenix should be providing lower noise floor. I too am sk... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? Its all good, streaming is complex, I don't have all the answers. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I totally agree. The only reason I go off on tangents with this thread is because of the great potential of 005. In the context of streaming, full potential of 005 requires totally optimized streaming chain. With dacs used for streaming I perc... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? I should add, most streamers are going to require quality outboard lps for best sound quality, certainly brings cost up. Still, even with this, I believe good value vs. Phoenix or any dedicated usb only device. Not saying Phoenix not good for ... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? Well, in relation to those positive Phoenix reviews, were they used in combination with an optimized renderer. The Innuos Zeniths don't have optimized rendering, only the Statement does, adding the Phoenix to that would be redundant. Quality i... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @debjit_g I believe you're talking about atx board power supplies when you mention cost of ps for pf or jcat boards, Certainly these are pricey, JCAT Optimo would likely be my choice at around $5300. But the lps for individual boards can vary gr... | |
| Which USB reclocker is as good as the Innuos Phoenix USB? UltraRendu does have two Femto clocks,one for network, other for usb, also does usb rendering. So, in fact its network and usb device. Sonore in different league vs prior SOTM SMS 200 Neo. At this point I'm mostly in jjss49 camp as far as dedi... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I'm extremely leery about clocks after experience with the audiophile switch with OXCO clock, excessively precise sound staging and imaging, the very things clocks are supposed to improve. I assume my clocking is sufficient at the moment what with... |
