| Hifi Rose RA180 I’d definitely be interested in a review from an Audiogner once they have this beautiful integrated in their possession. IMO the aesthetics for this unit are stunning and the class AD amp design sounds intriguing. | |
| Spotify navigation? Does Lumin allow Spotify Connect on your D1? It seems like Spotify is a lot like Apple with their consumers - they want their consumers to stay within their ecosystem, which limits or denies access to their content from other platforms/businesses.... | |
| Audio people you've had contact with that proved to be good people. Louis Chacos of Omega Speaker Systems. Above and beyond regardless of whether he would or wouldn’t get a sale. | |
| Do speaker cables really make a difference ? Confirmation bias is often cited by cable deniers, yet it's rarely acknowledged in the same post or thread that this interpretation goes both ways in terms of confirming one's previous beliefs - more like "rejection bias" for the cable deniers. | |
| To ROON or not to ROON ? @classdstreamer definitely debatable - yet I agree that out of all the streaming platforms (Tidal, Quboz, Deezer, Amazon), Spotify's music discovery is above and beyond without question. Stopping subscriptions for multiple providers and only hav... | |
| To ROON or not to ROON ? I'm sure some of you had seen the price increases below. I've tried Roon out a few times and currently debating whether I should spring for the lifetime subscription before the 1st of January. Music discovery is extremely high on the priority list... | |
| NAD AUDIO C658 STREAMER I’ve had the C658 for a few years and I still have mixed emotions and results from this component, especially in respect to DIRAC. The positives: 1. DIRAC if you have a difficult room. 2. Dual subwoofer inputs with digital crossover allowing yo... | |
| JL Gotham, Seaton HP, Funk Audio 18.2 or ? Old thread from 2014. Haven't had the privilege to listen to any of the above subwoofers, but I would give plasma over the course of a couple of years to own one of the Funk Audio subs. | |
| Bluesound Node or Audiolab 6000N My understanding is that gapless equates to no pause between songs. If you’re listening to say, Nirvana Unplugged (live album), there’s no pause between tracks which helps retain the ambiance of the performance vs being reminded that you’re listen... | |
| Spotify HiFi Something I was thinking about this morning in regards to pricing: Spotify Platinum is rumored to be $20/individual with Hi-Fi being qualified as CD-quality. One could purchase a year’s subscription of Tidal through Best Buy for $10/month and ... | |
| Spotify HiFi The monthly definitely seems high. I’d be curious what the “playlist pro” consists of, though. | |
| Spotify HiFi Platinum plan with HiFi @ $20/month to possibly be released within the next month? I’m not holding my breath, but interesting nonetheless. | |
| Anyone heard new Zu Union 6? @kray that was an incredibly helpful post. I owe you either a beer or cup of coffee. Much appreciated! | |
| Anyone heard new Zu Union 6? I’ve been following this insightful thread. Currently taking a strong look at these speakers. @whoopycat did you end up keeping these? Any thoughts after break-in? @kray feel free to add any more observations. I’m sure I’m not the only following... | |
| Beginner home theater setup questions... BIG congrats on paying off your student loans. I also paid off my student loans earlier this year - such a huge relief, but lots of work (always had two side hustles). I like the idea of the Denon receiver, SVS sub and OLED, especially right now ... |
