| Qobuz Skipping or Short Pauses I had this same issue, change the clock settings on the bluesound. | |
| Best streamer for a returning audio guy All these suggestions will work. Up to you to decide what to buy as it's your choice and money. I think you will love streaming. Mostly because you will have millions of songs at your fingertips. Best part is that you can find a song th... | |
| Best streamer for a returning audio guy Bluesound Node hard wired. Very stable and user friendly app. Get an external DAC if you want to upgrade the sound later 😉 | |
| WiFi streaming — streamer vs. through iPad If you can use ethernet cable do so. I get about 30 Mbs with WiFi and 300Mbs with ethernet. Just less chance of losing signal. | |
| What size power cable? Most of the posts are listing to use heavy gage wires. The wires from your circuit breaker to your outlet are most likely Romex 14-2. These are solid copper. We use stranded power cords because they are flexible, not because they are better.... | |
| What size power cable? I would recommend using a Tesla Power Wall. Then regenerate AC to a dedicated circuit to power your system. Sounds fantastic. | |
| Go Ahead and Laugh at Me That type of voltage switch is used on lots of equipment. It measly changes the taps on the transformer. It's designed to visually show you what the device is set to by just looking at it. | |
| New Topping D90SE DAC Thanks for your thoughts SRKBEAR. I agree that with a DAC that should be the case. But some people might differ and I do respect their opinion. The chain of source to ear has many steps and each one tweeks the sound a bit. Pretty complicate... | |

| Roon/Bluesound Node - adding new DAC (non Roon-Ready) If you have the Node why buy Roon? If you don't like the Node DAC, use an external DAC. | |
| Another MC402 Question Mcintosh makes well built long lasting amplifiers that sound great but not lively and detailed. I own a 452 and a rebuild 2300. My other amplifiers like my jc5 just sound more like a live performance. However, I would not give up my Mac am... | |
| Do you spend more time analyzing the sound of your system, worrying it could be better? I spend time finding new music and artists that I enjoy. I'm done spending money on the system. It's like someone spending too much worrying about their cameras equipment and not looking for wonderful things to photograph. | |
| Burning in question Buy a used amp. | |
| Move from Parasound A23 to A21/A21+ or Something Else? I had to have a Mc452 repaired under warranty last year which took 5 months. In the interim, I recapped parasound HCA855 to run the front speakers. My God it sounded great. When my MC452 came back home I thought it sounded lifeless. On a ... | |
| Is it me? Will I ever be satisfied? I have the mc452 with BW speakers but only use it to run the subwoofer. JC 5 runs the main speakers. Bluesound is good but they need an external DAC to really sing. Since you are in a garage, try a room correction software. That really helps |
