| Esoteric N-05XD clock recommendation @wrxsti Did I try the TEAC CG-10M? Yes indeed...brought it home for demo and it sold me right away. I've had it in the system with the TEAC UD-701N since early APR 23 and have been enjoying digital stuff more than I ever have. (Qobuz has grow... | |
| TEAC UD-701 vs NT-505 vs ? @milpai Tks for the link...interesting review. I will say that as far as "limited soundstage depth", the UD-701N was certainly better than the Yggdrasil in my system, but I'm not certain what he was specifically comparing it to in his context. | |
| BEST CD TRANSPORT ...ham fingered above... referencing TEAC 701T & 701N. | |
| BEST CD TRANSPORT TEAC VRDS-791T ...? Has anyone tried this transport yet? Thinking of it myself to go with my TEAC UD-791N DAC/Streamer. Also has the 10Mhz master clock input so I could use my TEAC CG-10M. Seems reasonably priced, too. | |
| CHORD Hugo TT2 vs TEAC NT-505 + TEAC CG-10M Master Clock @darberb Glad it's working out... This 701/CG-10M combo has been really impressive. | |
| CHORD Hugo TT2 vs TEAC NT-505 + TEAC CG-10M Master Clock @darberb I use a 50-ohm "generic" 18" cable ($50) between my CG-10M and UD-701N. My dealer uses it for demos, so I just went with that and he got one for me. Haven't yet pursued higher end 50-ohm cables, as this sounds so good as is. | |
| Scheu Turntable Importer in US? May be OBE now, but is Rutherford Audio still dealing with Scheu? I have a 20 yr old Scheu (Eurolab) Premiere MK II (w/Moerch UP-4) that's still going strong (resides in my A/V system now)...fantastic combo. | |
| TEAC UD-701 vs NT-505 vs ? Decided to home demo the TEAC CG-10M Master Clock Generator with my UD-701N this week. No cost risk - figured I’d give this a shot even though the 701 is stellar on its own. The improvement is very clear and discernable with everything I’m check... | |
| TEAC UD-701 vs NT-505 vs ? @ptatztxt No suggestions here, but wondering if you use a local NAS and if that has issues playing as well with the HR Steeam or other controllers? (I ask as I have only used my 701 via NAS and haven't yet run into any issues.) I certianly hop... | |
| TEAC UD-701 vs NT-505 vs ? @celestial__sound Nice to hear you went with the UD-701N. (my dealer has mentioned it's been very popular with his clients, as well.) I started out with MB to gauge its sound relative to my Yggdrasil (MB as well). I have since changed to 1-bi... | |
| Esoteric N-05XD clock recommendation Interested in what you discover... I'm considering the TEAC CG-10M for my TEAC UD-701N, myself. I can home demo from my dealer, so no risk involved. I'd be using the internal TEAC streamer. A gent from another thread indicated the CG-10M was ... | |
| Streaming Dac $5000-8000 Went with the TEAC 701 here after similar academic search, but didn’t have luxury of home auditions of other units as with the TEAC. I was quite impressed with what was accomplished with this device. I will say the Lumin/TEAC/Esoteric app is ce... | |
| Schiit Yggdrasil Less is More, is it a quality dac ? TEAC NT-505x is worthy of your consideration in that price range. Preferred it to my Yggdrasil A2 in my home system. | |
| TEAC UD-701 vs NT-505 vs ? @celestial__sound There's your answer. I was just going to add there is a toggle on the HR Streamer app for Tidal & Qobuz (I don't use them as I only stream via local NAS). This unit has been impressing me more and more over the past coupl... | |
| recommendation of amps Luminous Audio Technology Archimedes Monoblocks ($8,500/pr) Replaced my Parasound A21+ with these…the A21+ is very nice and is a good value, but the Archimedes are just next level ( or so) and drive my Paradigm Persona 3F like they were made for ... |
