| Aurender N20 @lalitk Thank you. I guess the iPhone version requires a bit more effort to find the streaming bitrate, but it is there. | |
| Little Giant NOS DAC mini review Not only is the distortion reduced to a tolerable level Pretty low bar for music. | |
| Sony introduced headphones made from plastic bottles @jond So you think this is doing something for the environment. I guess they have already grounded their corporate jets and making products out of minute volumes of plastic was all they could do. I don’t question your sincerity, I question Sony... | |
| Sony introduced headphones made from plastic bottles @jond Do it and shut up. It’s about look at us..we are so wonderful. Just how many bottles do they use to make this product? And I hate the carbon credit, holier than thou politics/marketing. | |
| DAC Input Topology I thank everyone for their input. I purchased a used N20. I recognize that the value proposition for such a purchase is debatable. I will, at some point, report my experience with the N20. | |
| SVS SoundPath Subwoofer Isolation Feet @dtximages My expectation is very low when buying products that drastically undercut the price of the main players. If I want a good product I never buy the cheap product. I might not buy the most expensive product either. Also, in this time ... | |
| Dallas DFW speaker crossover repair gurus that you'd trust GR Research Inc. 1716 Texowa Rd. Iowa Park, TX 76367 USA I’m in Celina, 2 minute walk (& North of) from McKinney and without traffic 2:49 travel time. | |
| SVS SoundPath Subwoofer Isolation Feet Are these $48/4 feet at Amazon? This can’t be right. | |
| DAC Input Topology @designsfx Yes, your understanding seems valid. Perhaps at some point I will purchase a DAC with clock sync inputs, but good external clocks seem to be rather expensive. | |
| DAC Input Topology @designsfx It was stated in an article that I read which explained the differences in clock technology where it stated the OCXO was 4-10 more stable than other clocks. Of course atomic clocks are better yet and really expensive. Aurender has a... | |
| DAC Input Topology @lowrider57 The streamer/DAC does not have an internal DAC. The significance of the stable clock is that it can produce an extremely low jitter on the AES/EBU, BNC and Coax outputs. I was questioning if the Holo can take advantage of this given ... | |
| Is a femto clock important if you aren't using asynch USB? @cheeg I believe that many have already told you that the W4s is not a good choice, but you have ignored those posts and ask once again the same question. If you are going to get it then go ahead, but please read reply’s of those responding. | |
| DAC Input Topology @jasonbourne52 I have an iFi Zen Stream and I’m trying to make sense of Aurender’s claims. My iFi Zen Stream has their top power supply and sounds good and sounded better than my previous analog system, but doesn’t match my analog whereas many A... | |
| Is a femto clock important if you aren't using asynch USB? While it is true that USB does not rely upon the streamers clock, it seems to me that you want a good DAC clock for stable sampling of any input. | |
| Is AES/EBU or SPDIF connection preferred by Aurender N10, N20 owners? @ghdprentice That sounds like a well tested recommendation, so that is what I will get. Systems differ, but I have to start somewhere. Thank you |
