| Aurender, wich one? Upgrading from a Mac mini I just upgraded from a late model MacBook with Audirvana to a N100h and I’m very happy with this move. Sonically the differences are tangible and you can’t beat the convenience. I’m just streaming Tidal now until I can rip the hundreds of cd’s tha... | |
| Aurender N100h vs. SOtM sms-200 Ultra 2 hours in on my new N100h and I couldn’t be more impressed. This is by far the biggest upgrade of any system I’ve had. Totally blow the MacBook/Audirvana out of the water!!! | |
| Aurender N100h vs. SOtM sms-200 Ultra My N100h arrives tomorrow, hoping it pairs nicely with my Gumby. Did a lot of research comparing the Aurender to the Auralic Aries and it seems to be a significant upgrade. Koestner...good luck with whatever you choose. | |
| Gumby vs Yggy Thanks everyone for the feedback and help. I ended up keeping it :) I also put my old Threshold S200 back into the system and things are sounding pretty nice. I guess I really should be looking at a proper streamer.Has anyone used a Bryston BDP-1 ... | |
| Gumby vs Yggy I left it powered on and processing music streams for a solid week before I was very critical with it. At which time I started with the tweaks, power cord, usb vs optical, isolation stand etc. There certainly isn't a wow factor with this upgrade, ... | |
| Gumby vs Yggy I popped the cover and it's got the correct multibit board in there. | |
| Gumby vs Yggy gdhal, no offense at all, was just teasing ;-) sorry if it came across as anything but!!The Gungnir I bought was multibit, most refer to this model as the Gumby. I think I'm going to pop the cover off to verify what board is inside. The tiny stick... | |
| Gumby vs Yggy That's good news, thanks ghosthouse!! | |
| Gumby vs Yggy ya got to keep rubbing it in about the Yggy gdhal lol | |
| Gumby vs Yggy Thanks for all the great suggestions, I appreciate the feedback. Well the Gumby is back in the system, probably to stay. There is just something about the sound that I can't put my finger on....smoothness...air...less fatigue?? I find myself missi... | |
| Gumby vs Yggy yeah plus I was pretty stoked about buying the Gumby with the gen5 usb card, was supposed to negate the need for any intermediate device. | |
| Gumby vs Yggy Wow....that's a big statement!!! Or get that tube amp I'm dreaming of lol. But seriously, shouldn't a good computer with good software be a "good" source. I looked at the Auralic streamers and they are doable. My Mac with Audirvana is much better ... | |
| Gumby vs Yggy Thanks gdhal!! I think that’s what disappointed me, all the Gumby and Yggy reviews tell of huge sonic gains and talked of the multibit “magic”. Don’t get me wrong, it sounded great, but so does my Arcam. Some songs favored one or the other but ver... | |
| Gumby vs Yggy Sorry, thought Gumby implied multibit. I’ve read several reviews comparing the Arcam as being very close to the Gungnir ds so I was actually thinking they mislabeled this as a Gumby. |
