| USB to Dual Coax Bridge for Qutest DAC Yes congrats and please do share your thoughts on how the M3 compares to the Qutest! | |
| USB to Dual Coax Bridge for Qutest DAC @drlou77 I had a similar setup as you, Aurender N100H feeding a Sboosted Qutest via Curious and other USB cables. For the most part it sounded great, albeit a bit harsh on some recordings. I'm not bashing USB but I moved on from it due mostly to... | |
| Power strip recommendations Tripp-Lite hospital grade strip is high quality and reasonable. They have models with longer cords too. https://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-Medical-Grade-Hospital-Grade-PS-602-HG/dp/B0016HIMTC | |
| DACed and Confused here... @soix I've used the Apple Camera connector for an old iPhone while listening to background internet radio, sounded ok for it's purpose but it recently died. I looked up the Lavri cable you recommend but it doesn't say anywhere if you can power a d... | |
| Coax SP/DIF to USB..thoughts? @daveyf I don't know how universal this is but I think it will work with most streamers that have a usb output. I've used my UT100 on a MacMini M1 without any issue at all. Windows would probably need a driver which could be an issue but I think a... | |
| Coax SP/DIF to USB..thoughts? @daveyf I'd try an Aurender UC100 converter, at $700 it's not cheap but you may be able to get one used. I use their UT100 usb to fiber converter and it works just great. I'm not going to argue the pros or cons of USB sound quality, I just don... | |
| DAC UPGRADE QUESTION Lots of great recommendations here. If you want to squeeze as much performance out of your Qutest before the next big upgrade, I'd try a linear power supply, my Qutest responded nicely to the Sbooster, the extra filter thingy didn't seem to make a... | |
| Monitor Stands - Made of Stone @69zoso69 I keep seeing the D&D speakers in Roon ads, how do you like them in general? | |
| millercarbon @chrshanl37 LOL, nice to start my day off with a laugh. I don't like to cast stones, but if there was ever a legend in his own mind....... | |
| Aurender N10 connection with the network Additionally, for my home office I use Cisco Business access points, one set up as a bridge and not once had an issue with my N100h. I just keep everything off that network for security reasons. | |
| Aurender N10 connection with the network @rickderuyter , I'm in IT so I've seen my share of strange networking issues. Due to location, I'm forced to use a wifi extender set up in bridge mode. So it simply feeds the ethernet cable out to my Aurender, and doesn't extend the wireless signa... | |
| Aurender N10 connection with the network @gs5556 If MicroLost made anything that didn't suck....it'd be a vacuum. | |
| subwoofer buzz - how to eliminate it These get great reviews and are very reasonably priced. I'm thinking of getting some. https://www.svsound.com/products/soundpath-subwoofer-isolation-system | |
| Aurender N10 connection with the network @bill_peloquin Cat5 is actually only rated for 100Base-T. Most people at home and work are on gigabit (1000Base-T) which requires Cat5e or better. I'd use a Cat6 cable if I were you. You may want to consider putting a DHCP reservation in on yo... | |
| FYI: Let visitors use your Wi-Fi for additional security Guest networks are for security, they typically only allow access to the internet, not anything on your local network. Ideally they'll put the guests on a different IP subnet to further isolate the two. One mistake I see often is not password pr... |
