Looking for my End Game Speaker
I spent a couple years in search of my last pair, as I knew once retired, the funds would never be there again. Unless I won a lotto etc. I made a CD of songs that I felt were 1) familiar 2) offered both male and female vocals 3) offered bass heav... 
Bluesound mode not really cutting it
Ronboco, glad its not just me. I bought a stylus which helps hitting the dots, but it doent work on the phone. Also I think the most frustrating part is that is clears the que. It would be nice if the 3 dot are was independant of the song title. ... 
Bluesound mode not really cutting it
gkelly, I have a question about your Innuos Pulse Mini. Are you running it without the upgrade power supply. I was speaking with a dealer the other day and he was pushing the power supply, and although I realize I can always add it later, I am jus... 
Cardas Spades
I have all Cardas in my system and the rhodium plating adds endurance, but I really don’t feel that they add or subtract any coloration. Quality products but the Audioquest connectors are less money and I think they are of good quality as well.  
My stereo
Take a sigh of relief and enjoy! I retired a couple years ago and would like to think I have completed my system. Although I upgraded my speaker cables a few months ago. But being on retirement my resistance to buy has been harnessed although…  
Kris Kristofferson
Watching Cisco Pike in his honor as we speak. He’s a poet, He’s a picker he’a prophet, He’s a pusher he’s a pilgrim and a preacher and a problem when he’s stoned he’s a walking contradiction partly truth and partly fiction Takin’ ev’ry wrong ... 
Changing Tweeter on Olympica 3
I agree with ckr1969, drivers should be replaced in pairs so they wear-in together.  
Chord Hugo TT2 - My experience so far
audphile1, Yes I plan to listen for at least a week and then switch back. I find that the best comparison is returning to "pre-change" and see if I miss the previous setting. I recently changed out my speaker cables and have been re-adjusting my s... 
Chord Hugo TT2 - My experience so far
Audphile1, thank you for responding. I probably should have mentioned my pre-amp is an Audio Research LS28SE, I doubt that it makes any difference, but thought I’d throw in to the mix. I will try this and see what results I get, it’s a shame that ... 
Chord Hugo TT2 - My experience so far
As an owner of this DAC, I am curious about your mention of the output. I too am using XLR cables and I want to make sure that I understand that you were able to reduce the output form 5v to 2.5v (or so I assume). In looking at the manual, it seem... 
RIP SRV
Gosh how time flys, yet how his legend has endured. I was just telling a friend that I got to see him perform in Denver as the opening act for the Moody Blues. He blew the crowd away and performed three encores because the crowd couldn’t get enoug... 
So, I bought a Chord Hugo TT2...now what?
Congratulations, I traded in a Cutest about a year ago on the TT2 as well. I also am using a Bluesound Node and am using a Kimber D60 digital cable. I would like to upgrade my streamer before I would add the M Scaler. My dealer has agreed to set a... 
I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!!
I had an Ayre C5xe-mp for years and finally traded it in on a Chord Hugo TT 2. I had spent some time looking for a DAC with AES-EBU digital input, and couldn’t find one I could afford or suited me. So I now use my Oppo BVD105d as a transport thru ... 
Which HDMI cable for I2S?
I have found that the Audioquest HDMI cables perform very well and have quality connectors that fit snug and make good contact. Mine are all employed as video, but in my opinion, audio or video, it’s all digital. So I doubt it makes any difference... 
Issue with Audio Research 5SE Preamp
I owned this pre-amp a few years ago, and one thing that is not mentioned in the owners manual is that the 6550 tube must be changed at 2500 hours, not 4000 hours indicated for the 6H30 tubes. I would suggest checking the hours and removing the co...
