Anyone else order Caladans from Clayton Shaw? @vthokie83 Any initial thoughts/impressions on the Caladans? | |
Please be gentle with me! 🙏 Oops. I misread and thought he was using the DAC in the phone. Not sure if DAC in the Node would be an improvement or not. My bad. | |
Please be gentle with me! 🙏 Yes. It’ll sound better both as a streamer and as a DAC so he’ll get improvements on both counts. He should also be using a quality streaming service like Qobuz or Tidal. | |
Legacy Focus 20/20 Speakers AMP/Pre Amp Congrats man! Enjoy!!! | |
Revival Audio Atalante 3 vs Fritz Carbon 7 SE MKII I’d add the Joseph Audio Prisms to your list. Haven’t heard the other two, but I’ve heard your 705s at length and the Prisms are at another level entirely and in every way. Just another option FWIW. | |
Kids, Dogs, and Speakers You could look at speakers like Totem Audio Forests where the cabinets can be filled with sand that significantly increases their weight making them hard to knock over and also improves their sound. | |
Streaming Curious I've heard a few streamers and in general think they sound very compressed and 2D. The depth and air of vinyl is completely absent I feel. Sorry, but this seems a bit silly to me. How much do you have invested in your vinyl equipment? And yo... | |
Interconnects To answer your question, no. There is no difference between interconnects unless they have some type of resistor or other electronic altering device built it. Ah the flat earthers once again rear their ugly head where they’re clearly not needed... | |
AE SP12 or Zavfino Nova OCC? Since I need 3 meters Zavfino does not do returns for custom orders Well now that would’ve been good info to have upfront don’t ya think? Not nice to leave out critical details like that when you’re asking people for their time/help. Are we s... | |

Using a streamer to DAC to power amp, should I insert an integrated Sorry, but all your stuff is way dated. Do yourself a favor and go listen to some equipment from this century. Everything you’re thinking about is a sideways move so if you enjoy what you’re hearing just enjoy it for what it is unless you wanna ... | |
Streaming Curious I may do that although I am pretty content with the sound. How is the audio quality better? @ellajeanelle I have both Qobuz and Ultra HD Amazon and find Qobuz superior listening to the same recordings. It’s clearer, more 3 dimensional, more ... | |
Streaming Curious @ellajeanelle I’d encourage you to do a free trial of Qobuz and compare to Amazon (I have). I’m a Prime member too but still pay a few dollars more per month for Qobuz because IME Amazon’s “HD” quality ain’t there yet. FWIW. | |
Streaming Curious Streaming will change your music-loving life and will likely turn you into a streaming listener who plays an occasional LP. IMHO your system deserves much better than a Node. Buy this used Innuos Zen that has a very user-friendly interface, grea... | |
