| Recommendations for a network streamer for my system playing Tidal Masters I had a serious week of listening and playing with the auralic Altair G1. After listening to it for the first day, I kept going between CD/SACD on my 15 year old CDSD transport/DCC2 dac/pre and realized I much preferred listening to my older equi... | |
| Recommendations for a network streamer for my system playing Tidal Masters thanks for your input. I am hoping to try out the Altair in my system at the end of the week | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Tab110sMy new Cervelo is a 51cm, the older Trek 5200 (1992 original version OCLV) is a Trek so-called 54cm which is more like a typical 52. To be honest, I much prefer the fit of my smaller 51cm, with sloping top tube. | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session right now, in the middle of winter I am riding my bike during my listening sessions. See my old bike sitting in the middle of my audio room on the Cycleops Fluid2 trainer, with a bunch of Spinervals DVDs to keep me motivated. Just ordered a virtua... | |
| Best "album" of 2006 Well I started this thread in Feb and now that the end of 2006 is 24 hours away I will share my fav albums of 2006. Of note, I found that I bought way too many CD's largely on hype or based on internet. IN fact, I bought so many that I'm sure ther... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Well, despite the cooler and wet weather I have managed to get a few rides on my new R3. All I can say it is amazing. Fast, rigid, light, and surprisingly comfortable. Just sweet going up hill (under 16 lbs loaded). And all the roads feel like the... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session My new Cervelo R3 with DuraAce, FSA Compact Crank, FSA K-wing handlebars. 15.4 lbs without cages. Too bad it just arrived yesterday (on back order) ... As winter approaches I may just get to look at it sitting in my audio room. | |
| Real world experience with the Funk or Funk V TT I noticed in a number of recent mags, very positive reviews for the Funk Vector (v) TT. This includes: HiFi+ (vol 46), recent The Absolute Sound, and HiFi News. I am curious, other than Matt, has anyone else bought the Vector and what do they have... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Unfortunately, up here in the North East (Nova Scotia), the mornings are getting real nippy for ridign. Single digit Celsium at 0600 for our morning group rides. Even my 0700 am ride today felt cold with my arm warmers and vest. But, it is still g... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Well its shaping up to be a very exciting tour after all. Again, like last year I have been glued to OLN, velonews.com, and letour.fr, instead of listening to music. And when I'm not watching the tour, I am riding my Trek 5200 a lot more this year... | |
| Radiohead, Night 2 Toronto Thanks for the headsup. Unfortunately, dimeadozen is over subscribed and I can't join up now. I did get a few torrents at another site for the June 8 show. | |
| Radiohead, Night 2 Toronto Lush,You should check pitchforkmedia.com daily to get the lowdown on various tours, new CDs etc. The Radiohead concerts in Toronto, Montreal, with 2 nights in each city were announced just a little over a month ago. The tickets sold out instantly ... | |
| Radiohead, Night 2 Toronto Dogpile,The light and stage set up was fairly simple and modern. If you go to the news on pitchforkmedia.com you can see a picture of the stage:http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/features/live/r/radiohead-06/Above the band were those multiple, polygona... | |
| EMM transport clarification Thanks for that clarification. Since my CDSD has been back from emmlabs, I could almost swear it sounds better ... it certainly is quieter too. I'm told the transport was not changed, but the software was updated. So, maybe that is what David and ... | |
| Is the EMM Labs DCC2 dac better than the DAC6e? Wow, if I would have waited a year to buy my Lamm M1.2's, I could have got a free emmlabs DAC6e. |
