| Who still listens to their First Generation Cd Players? Just picked up a Pioneer pd-4050 at a local garage sale.Very very clean and obviously well looked after. 1987 vintage.Hooked it up via single ended rca as this only option and it sounds pretty darn good for $20!.Very detailed and solid, nice prese... | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming Have some thinking ahead.Aurilac, Mytek, Lumin.All look like excellent products.Thank you for suggestions so far. | |

| Whats playing on your system today? stereo5If it helps any I could not stand listening to attention attention on my main rig at all.It did not sound too bad playing via Tidal on my phone transmitted to the car stereo via Bluetooth! Seemed to take the harshness out of it! | |
| Whats playing on your system today? stereo5Unfortunately I have to agree on the new Shinedown album SQ, terrible mastering all round.A real shame as there are some killer tracks on it later into it if you can sit and suffer...lolWe are huge fans and have seen them live 4 times, my o... | |

| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming @gdnrbob. I am currently using the DAC in my Lyngdorf 2170 which is pretty superb although not MQA compliant.I was more along the lines of looking at a superior streamer to my vault but is looking increasingly like I may be at a point where I will... | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming RobertI use my android phone to control right now, however I do have an older iPad 3 lying around that could be pressed into service.I will research the Aries.LatikI did look at the Mytek products, mighty fine seeming units. | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming To get full MQA benefit right now I would likely need to insert another MQA capable DAC between the Vault and the 2170.At least that would be my take on it?@mr_m Is the ayre codex MQA capable? | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming @lalitk Actually I have the Vault hooked up right now with both dig coax and single ended rca into the 2170.Unfortunately the DAC in the Vault is of quite a lesser caliber imho and even MQA via analog is noticeably inferior to MQA via digital even... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Next upJourneyman... Eric Clapton | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming I think you could be right Latik.It does seem a lot of extra for possibly a small incremental increase in sq, although not that uncommon as you rise up the hifi chain.Also looked over the NAD M50.2 which looks like it would basically do only the s... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Another fruitfull trip to our LRS, getting to be a weekly pilgrimage for my teenage daughter and myself, brought her up proper like...lol.First upNo Jacket required...Phil Collins | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming It could well be that there is not much better available at a reasonable price point over what I already have and with my self imposed limitations.And if not so be it and I will carry in enjoying music via the Vault. |
