| Digital is far better than vinyl @lalitk Sorry man. I get the perverse enjoyment of hearing people spout off on this thread, but my sensitive side got the better of me. I’m too weak. | |
| New transport or repair CD player Have you tried just cleaning the laser? Probably at least worth a try. | |
| Digital is far better than vinyl To those who don’t seem to get it, this post is a witty retort to another thread (just removed by admin BTW) where the title was “Streaming for Quantity,Vinyl for Quality…”. The OP came to this broad conclusion using a…wait for it…Node as a strea... | |
| What should be mandatory in every professional published review- @noske So, you purport to know my actual experience better than I do? You’re absolutely misguided and clueless, and you can quote me on that. | |
| Zavfino Majestic USB Cable @panzrwagn If you can’t hear differences between digital cables I truly feel sorry for you because it’s really not hard. As you’re obviously in the “I hear what I believe” camp you sadly probably never will. It, however, is much easier to just b... | |
| Zavfino Majestic USB Cable @1971gto455ho Please let us know what digital cables you’ve compared and found no difference. Also, what’s in the rest of your system? I’m thinking Bose cause you seem to be stuck in the past. | |
| How To Connect a DAC? Keep and use the Node 3. Trying to add a separate DAC is a futile endeavor at best. For real sound improvement buy a better pair of speakers. Don't pay attention to the audiophools who spend thousands on DAC's and streamers! @jasonbourne52 You’... | |

| How To Connect a DAC? What’s the rest of your equipment and budget for a DAC? | |
| Audiolab 6000CDT I find myself wondering if one added a good re-clocker like an Empirical Audio Synchro Mesh or a Wyred4Sound Remedy how much closer the Audiolab might approach the better transports at significantly lower cost? | |
| Subwoofer suggestions for budget system? Maybe try reducing crossover closer to 40Hz and see what that does at higher volumes? Sounds like you might be getting too much overlap between sub and speakers as volume increases. Just a thought, but I totally hear ya on the 3D imaging thing. ... | |
| Open Baffle Experience Kenjit you should expand your narrow experience before you make unqualified statements. But, that’s his specialty and sole reason for being. My guess is he isn’t allowed to leave his padded room enough to get out and actually listen to anythin... | |
| Subwoofer suggestions for budget system? Experiment with lowering the crossover and volume if things are getting unwieldy when you turn up the volume as that shouldn’t happen with proper setup. What Dynes do you have and where do you currently have the crossover set? You might also try p... | |
| Subwoofer suggestions for budget system? @grislybutter Great! Did you get the crossover, volume and phase set properly? How does it sound now? | |
| Subwoofer suggestions for budget system? @grislybutter When you say “terrible,” what specifically do you mean? It’s possible you’ve got the volume and/or crossover set too high and/or placed in a bad spot. Here’s a quick n easy guide to help at least get the sub’s settings properly diale... |
