| Your first concert was to see who and when? Beach Boys, Chicago, and Elton John, 1975 at Hughes Stadium in Fort Collins, CO | |
| Has anyone had problems getting their money refunded by The Music Room? I have returned two high priced items to TMR. The money was in my account within two days of them receiving the products both times. No issues at all. | |
| Experience with SoulNote Dac2? @bluethinker you have a great system. The Tambaqui would be a great fit. It was in my final four when I was looking at DACs along with the Chord Dave and a Weiss 501. I went with the Bricasti M1S2. It replicated the Mola Mola as well as the Chord ... | |
| DAC suggestions? I suggest not going with Eversolo. Their customer service is terrible. I would recommend Innuos or Aurender for the streamer. Keeping the DAC separate from the streamer gives you options. I like Bricasti for a DAC, although there are several excel... | |
| Does Chat GPT just give you the answer you are hoping for? Just the equipment. No prices. | |
| Does Chat GPT just give you the answer you are hoping for? @sbank Great question Spencer. I should have included it earlier. "How does my stereo system compare to the best? What is it's rank?" There were some follow up questions regarding the Aurender and the Acoustats. My premise is the Chat GPT would... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? Great thread! I am by nature a competitive person. Always have been. However, in my primary hobbies I am more into being the best I can be. This goes for writing, woodworking, and my sound systems. There are some really expensive set ups that I... | |
| Does Chat GPT just give you the answer you are hoping for? @onhwy61 There were some exchanges regarding setup. No discussion at all regarding electrical service, although mine is cleaner than most (just lucky). The room acoustics did come up in an early discussion. Mine is not ideal, but not bad. The spac... | |
| Do you love the new AG Restrictions on communicating with all sellers al the time? No different than eBay... unfortunately. | |
| Does Chat GPT just give you the answer you are hoping for? @ghdprentice When I purchased the XA-25 I was actually focused on the dual mono XA-60. I exchanged a few emails with the folks at Pass Labs explaining my situation with the Acoustats and how I utilized the dual subs with an active crossover. Thei... | |
| Help please! Something amiss with my digital chain A quality pre-amp can make a world of difference. I went from an NAD 165EEE to a Benchmark LA4 (great, but clinical) to the LTA MicroZOTL (recently upgraded to Level 3). The folks at LTA are a pleasure to work with as you found out with the Aero D... | |
| Qobuz vs Airplay @goldenways My son, a programmer for an Apple affiliate said the same thing. We set up Apple Music and compared it to Qobuz, Amazon Music HD, Tidal, and NAS. We both agreed the NAS and Qobuz were very similar with preferences varying from one to... | |
| What decibel level do you listen at? What is ideal? 67 to 72 for most. | |
| Aurender N20 versus Innuos Zen NG @audphile1 great catch. I meant silver reference by DH Labs which is a 110 ohm AES/EBU cable. Thanks for the support. | |
| Aurender N20 versus Innuos Zen NG I received my N20 last weekend and have been listening several hours every day. It is such an improvement over the Innuos Pulse, as it should be. I purchased it used with one memory card. With the money I saved buying used I am upgrading the cable... |
