| Sub repair or new sub? I think you’re crazy to fix that sub, plus you’ll probably be on the hook for shipping both ways that will drive the cost up further. Just get an SB1000 Pro that’s probably a much better performer and comes with their integration software, and at... | |
| Speaker or amplifer What are Sonus Faber iii? Olympica? What specific improvements are you looking for, and what’s the rest of the equipment in your system? | |
| Great video on Phil Collins the drummer Great video — thanks for sharing. I too grew up mostly with the later Genesis stuff, but especially as a drummer I’m now looking forward into delving deeper into their earlier music. | |
| new Parasound A21+ vs my old Rotel RB-1080 just don't give enough of that... more than an educated guess. Ok, I was trying to be nice but now I’ll just give it to you straight. Your speakers won’t give you what you’re looking for because they can’t. I worked for Magnolia for a bit and... | |
| Comparing speakers at home questions @kahlenz You might wanna try these Herbies Gliders. They’re not very expensive and may give you a nice performance bump over the carriage bolts. Many people have reported significant improvements with them over spikes. Just a thought FWIW. ht... | |
| HDMI cable to utilize I2s Connection from LAIV uddc to Denafrips Terminator 2 Any HDMI cable will work, but optimally you want the cable to be a foot or less. I use this and the sound is so good I’m not itching to upgrade, and as the 1 foot length is only 8 bucks it might be a good option just to test it out without riskin... | |
| DAC, amp and headphone for the following 5 attributes I have a setup very similar to this that has all the characteristics you’re looking for in spades… https://www.amazon.com/HIFIMAN-Arya-Organic-Full-Size-Audiophiles/dp/B0C5RFXMM5/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1AEHGHOYG515G&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.0WmDWUDAdqWeTrT... | |
| new Parasound A21+ vs my old Rotel RB-1080 I don’t think it’s the amp, I think it’s the speakers you’re hearing. My friend has Martin Logans and the treble is anything but “crisp” sounding like that which you can get from a dynamic tweeter. It’s laid back and mellow, and I think that’s w... | |
| Streamer Advice I know a lot of people here use Eero. | |

| Streamer Advice You really don’t wanna use Wi-Fi — bypassing a streamers Wi-Fi processing is preferable. Better to get a Wi-Fi extender or Mesh system and go hardwired from that into your streamer, which also puts Innuos back on the table. | |
| Streamer Advice What are people's opinions on the IFI Zen Stream? @aberyclark I think it’s probably one of the best sounding streamers at its price point, but it’s given me fits getting it to link up through a Wi-Fi extender and their customer support is bas... | |
| Need recommendation for repair service in CA bay area - McCormack DNA-1 @newbee is correct. No brainer give SMcAudio a call — they designed/built your amp and will be by far your best resource, and lucky you at least they’re in California (I had to ship them my amp from NJ 😖). The input board on my DNA 0.5 RevA fail... | |
| Streamer Advice This is also a very good value… https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650163113-innuos-zen-mk3-2tb/ | |
| Streamer Advice Right around your price point I already recommended one earlier, which is about as good as you’re gonna do. |
