Early Impressions of Lab12 Integre4 Couldn’t be happier with my Lab12 Reference NOS DAC. The sound is so real and just pulls you into the music making it difficult to turn it off. It’s here to stay and would consider an Integre if/when I want to replace my amp. | |
Decware and “The List” @eag618 Wish you and family the best! Patience, patience, patience! Been on “THE” list for over 14 months for a Torii Jr. and i’m probably a little past 1/2 the wait. It has given me a chance to try other amps while I wait. When i ordered I was to... | |
Vacuum Tube Testing Services? Found a service that sounds promising. Will give it a go… https://www.western-glow.com/vaccum-tube-testing-matching/ | |
Tube tester? Agree with carlsbad…Unless you are buying and selling tubes or are bored and want to dig into tubes and tinker with testers just locate a repair shop that tests tubes or testing service like the one on the link below. I was considering buying one ... | |
Supratek Owners Thread @jackd my speakers are Goldenear Triton 2+, $3000 or less new or used | |
Supratek Owners Thread Hey Supratekers…I have a Chardonnay being built by Mick and I was wondering if anyone can share what amps ($3000 or less new or used) that pair well. I do have a Decware Torii Jr. on order for over a year that I will give a try but not sure that ... | |
Eva Cassidy "remastered" Listened to it tonight. All I have to say is ehhh nice effort but it just doesn’t work for me seems like a forced mismatch. Live at Blues Alley is her best! | |
CD TRANSPORT THAT MAKES AN AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE Sold my Cambridge CXC v2 transport, selling my CD collection and ripped CD’s that are unavailable for streaming…Done! On my systems streaming sounded better and offers so much more. | |
The best plug in filter ever! @ozzy WOW…7 do I hear 8, 9, 10. 🤣. I’m debating if I should justify buying a second one. I do believe tweaks make significant SQ improvement and support a lot of tweaks with an open mind. But you guys are in whole different league 👍👍 | |
Unscrupulous ebay buyers I have sold many many items on ebay with only 2 issues which I won, but now I only sell within a few self imposed restrictions. I don’t sell items over $100 and most are under $50 such as tubes, CD’s, LP’s, other assorted items. All are low risk ... | |
iFi Zen Stream (No USB output in Roon exclusive mode) @carlsbad HaHa certainly not here….I take all audio reviews as just another source of research no different than Audiogon input…some is good and much is bunk and you have weed through it all. I have no doubt the Allo sounds good…my iFi does as we... | |
iFi Zen Stream (No USB output in Roon exclusive mode) @carlsbad I came across this in doing research on the Raspberry Pi sound quality vs my ifi zen stream one review did comparisons. Interesting but just one review and everyone’s system has many variables. “:Allo USBridge Signature and Allo DigiOn... | |
iFi Zen Stream (No USB output in Roon exclusive mode) @erik_squires Thanks for your patience with me getting up to speed , it’ been very helpful. Being a stream end point makes more sense. I have a sonic transporter that I us as my roon core for 2 systems so another is not needed. | |
iFi Zen Stream (No USB output in Roon exclusive mode) @erik_squires Thanks that is perfect. I was able to look up the install instructions for Ubuntu and they explained it well. Just s couple more questions for you: Wanted to confirm the Pi4 a roon core and a streamer all in one? Ubuntu has severa... | |
iFi Zen Stream (No USB output in Roon exclusive mode) @erik_squires Pi 4 sounds intriguing. Might try one that is returnable. Can you provide more info? The operating system sounds like an alien language. What Pi4 memory is needed for roon? Can you explain the loading software requirements and h... |
