| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? @jbuhl gotcha. I tried, but then I thought this may be a case of the blind (me) leading the blind (not necessarily you). Andrew would definitely know! This is where I previously got held up with HQP - streamer not speaking the NAA protocol. | |
| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? @jbuhl if you haven’t already, you need to download the HQ Player Desktop from Signalyst which can be found here. If you scroll all the way down the webpage you can find the desktop downloads. Once you open the HQ Player Desktop you’ll see the glo... | |
| Signalyst HQPlayer - Is it worth the upgrade? @jbuhl that would be the small globe that you need to select. I'm sure you have this, but just in case, here's the link to the Roon HQ Player Knowledge Base, which briefly discusses this. I have to admit, it took me a while to navigate the setup p... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA footers: impressions Old thread, I know, but for future member searches: I’ve been playing around with some GAIA IIIs over the course of this past year. I have a pretty good rake/tilt to open up the soundstage, but always questioned whether such tilt was jeopardizing... | |
| TAD KT88 Redbase Valve's I just purchased some TAD EL34s Red Base from Viva Tubes yesterday off some of the comments found over at Steve Hoffman. Curious to see how they sound. I remember that there was some conversation about the KT 88s - may be worth hopping over there ... | |
| Nowhere to hear speakers and amps anymore! I guess they bought Magnolia Audio several years ago, but then I heard they dumbed/down the equipment to consumer stuff. Some Best Buys’ have the Magnolia section, but it’s not universal. I feel like Magnolia has been reduced - the selectio... | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC @bhvf LTA used to use and sell the MHDT DAC’s, which are great for the money. Yup, I remember this. Me trying to make connections while daydreaming at work: I’d be curious if MHDT was consulted at one point of the process. From the PTA artic... | |
| Amplifier Pairing with Coherent 15s Coherent 18 + Aric Audio Super 6SN7 Linestage + Super 2A3 SET = pretty sure this is going to expedite your journey to Nirvana. I was waiting for some Coherent’s to pop up on the used market, but it seems like owners rarely let go of them which see... | |
| There is none out there...... Couldn’t you do WiFi mesh network with a WiFi point near your system? You would then hardwire Ethernet from mesh point to the streamer/CD zipper. | |
| Do people tire of audio forums? Agree with cdc, +1 @sns. When really getting into 2-channel I would search the various audio forums, but always felt Audiogon forums was a great data point that seemed more valuable than others, which encouraged me to join. To your point OP, I’m ... | |
| Roon Aquisition: Will This Help Or Hamper? Over in the Roon forum Danny Dulai (founder) stated the following in the second post, which can be found here: We expected to fight hard for the existing lifetimers, but Harman was awesome and didn’t even consider not continuing to support them!... | |
| Not sure if this is the right forum Audiogon has three main sections that are somewhat compartmentalized: 1. Marketplace (landing page for this site) 2. Forum 3. Virtual Systems 4. and perhaps less popular sections (Bluebook and Merch) You must do your search in the respective ... | |
| Sunfire Classic Tube Pre-Amp Agree! I also think the Sunfire Cinema Grand and its smaller Architect series looked beautiful, too - very much regret selling. Product page here. | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC Looks like 6SN7 or 12SN7 output tubes. Product page here. | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC Better image below and further info from PTA: I was on the hunt for the elusive new Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC that I learned about on Friday. I found one in the headphone area, and I put on some cans to listen. The DAC sounded clean, but headph... |
