| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing Wow, this has been an incredibly informative thread. I also used a Sonore OpticalRendu for streaming to USB via fibre. The 2 best DACs I have had are the Yggi+ Less is More and the modded GAN1. The Lumin X1 is also up there but I liked the Y... | |
| Streamer upgrade - best path forward OP, thank you for all of the input and keeping us informed - please keep on doing so, especially in regards to the external clock and D/D convertor for running I2S into the R26. From what it looks like, this is how you have everything set up with ... | |
| Anyone buy one yet? Thoughts? @curiousjim my mistake over here - definitely didn't realize that. Regardless, thanks for correcting on this thread. | |
| Anyone buy one yet? Thoughts? @oddiofyl $1349 appears to be the price. From the YT video definitely managing expectations and being transparent that this streamer isn’t for everyone - needing to be hardwired, no connect features yet for Spotify and Tidal. Maybe this will be t... | |
| Animals and audiophiles I agree. You think there would be more research out there. Definitely surprising. Appreciate the compliment and glad to hear that your dog survived - I would imagine that was traumatizing. The credenza was purchased maybe 15 years ago. Prices have... | |
| Animals and audiophiles We have three rescue dogs as well, in addition to a coyote problem that backs up to a mountain/city park. Two of the three are Chihuahua mixes that have exceptional hearing in the dog world. I think I see your dilemma; the dogs have been home a... | |
| Affordable GaN FET amp from Peachtree Audio @yyzsantabarbara great information from your response - thank you! The GAN1 definitely looks interesting as well. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @doyle3433 oh man greatly appreciate the compliment. I remember repeatedly checking out your systems with the Volti Razz and Heresy’s- that’s right up my alley. Ditto on all accounts (dog for cat). | |
| Affordable GaN FET amp from Peachtree Audio I should be able to adjust volume on ROON by setting the OpticalRendu’s ROON END POINT settings to DEVICE VOLUME from FIXED. I will report back here if it works. There is some concern by 1 of the Sonore principles that this may not work. Thoug... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @kota1 thanks a bunch. I always thought cj’s gold champagne color was classy - same with Shindo’s color scheme with their green exterior and gold knobs. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? Regardless of where this thread went, there’s been 40 + 1 additional systems added to the Virtual Systems page since OP started the thread - that’s pretty good IMO. Not all of these additions can be attributed to this thread, but still. I definit... | |
| Any High End Tube Preamps with *gasp tone controls? @invalid the Space Tech Lab VSUB-100 looks really interesting. For myself, I’ve always been really interested in the Decware ZROCK2 with its simple 2 EQ curves. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? Ah man, Xenolith...you had me cracking up after reading your posts and then checking out your virtual system. That’s priceless, man. Best two responses by far on this thread. | |
| The best looking speakers @kokakolia you should start a thread about tips/tricks for decorating. I’ve always been really interested in room aesthetics and ambience in relation to putting foreign objects (speakers, amps, racks, room treatment) in an otherwise normal room. I... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @johnfritter it’s as easy as pecan pie! Go to chocolate chip icon in the top left corner of page > this drops down and allows you to select Virtual Systems page > once in Virtual Systems click on the three horizontal lines (top right) > ... |
