| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? One night in the early 70’s I walked down to the Berkeley Tower Records and bought one each of all of the stocked Beatle albums. I still have them, but haven’t really listened to them in decades. I’ll have to pull a few and give them a listen. | |
| McIntosh C22 (old & new) vs C2600 Op seems to have left the planet for parts unknown. | |
| New DAC! Meitner MA3, Denafrips Terminator Plus, Holo May KTE, Mola Mola Tambaqui The I2s standard is pretty much theoretical. To me, the main advantage of I2s is being able transmit digital data with fewer conversions and clock. Unfortunately, many I2s devices don’t transmit clock signals, or the DAC isn’t setup to receive and... | |
| Would It Be Possible To Get Help Finding This Song? This thread has gone off the tracks and perhaps intentionally. Do you really think that you elevate yourself by demeaning others? | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC The Airlens was to be their streaming component. PS Audio has a reasonable trial period. Many years ago Paul was 75% engineer and 25% marketeer. Perhaps we could fairly suggest that this ratio has moved towards marketing. Following threads at the ... | |
| May Dac w/External Clock. You might EMail Tim Conner at Kitsuni. I was dead set on I2s, but found out that the May DAC samples I2s exactly like USB, or coax. Tim claims that there is no advantage to I2s. No I2s clock information is used by the May DAC. That said, havin... | |
| May Dac w/External Clock. I’m confused. Does the May DAC have an external clock input and why are you wanting I2s? | |
| Can/Is AI Used To Post Threads on Audigon? @nonoise Forbidden Planet was amazing in many ways. I don’t think that humanity will survive long enough to imitate Krell technology, but then again the movie was more a commentary on the human psyche. | |
| Will I benefit from upgrading REL subwoofer pair Those are very small subs and your room is large. I would go for the largest pair of RELs possible. As you go up their line the drivers actually get faster. Perlisten get great press. | |
| McIntosh C22 (old & new) vs C2600 @jpizzit Seems to be your first post..welcome? Will you be using the DAC in the C2600 and will you be using an external phono stage? | |
| Minimum Sound Bar Height Your first post, welcome. Since AI we have had so many bots posting, so I thought that I would elicit a response. Thank You.. | |
| Ripping CD's to SSD? I did this within the last year. You should download DB Poweramp from their website. It works with High Sierra and after, so you should be ok. You might need to ok downloading from a third party source when downloading. Make sure that your compute... | |
| Question re: Aurender N20 Server, Qobuz album takes 10-15 seconds to start playing I run my N20 screen blacked out and I do get a delay when changing bitrate/depth, but I believe this is happening as my DAC attempts to lock the signal. When I don’t change bitrate/depth, I don’t get a delay. | |
| George Winston has passed away Have enjoyed his music and label for years. Thank you and RIP. | |
| New, Very Interesting CD Transport We each have a bias based upon experience. My bias is based upon my purchase of an Audiolab 6000CDT, which isn’t anyone’s idea of the best transport. I just didn’t like what I heard. Fast forward to a major upgrade of DAC and the purchase of an... |
