| Dual speaker system @elliottbnewcombjr now we are talking! So your first point is important — does a second set of speakers affect the primary speakers? Looks like the answer is yes. My primary speakers are SF Amati paired with Mc 601s and I was thinking of a co... | |
| Dual speaker system @kota1 nice! I use Roon to stream to multiple systems in my house. What I’m experimenting with now is two sets of speaker amp combinations in my hifi system. I am liking toggling between my laid back tube amp/smaller speaker combo and my more prec... | |
| Long interconnect or speaker cable So, my REL subs are upfront near my floor standers. Would there be any concern about the vibration of the subs next to the mono blocks? I’d put the 601s on small stands which would help, but I’m sure the bass energy would still cause the amps to v... | |
| Long interconnect or speaker cable Great input all, much appreciated, and confirms what I was thinking | |
| Shunyata Delta or Alpha V2 NR vs. AQ Hurricane HC @audphile1 both. XC into the power conditioner and the NR into the DAC | |
| Shunyata Delta or Alpha V2 NR vs. AQ Hurricane HC I did extensive back and forth between Delta and Alpha into my power conditioner and my DAC. Both vast improvement over my stock cords, but for SQ the Delta was the winner for my system. The Alpha was almost too much of a good thing and the music ... | |
| Question for Weiss Dac 501 Owners I have found that the room correction has been most useful—I have a node at 135Hz and it’s amazing to be able to reduce the dB at that frequency. | |
| Power Cord for PS Audio Power Plant Premier? I have a Shunyata Delta—improved sound stage, openness, and clarity by a lot | |
| interconnects vs speaker cables vs power cords - which make the biggest difference? I’ll add that I’ve been working on upgrading PC with the help of the Cable Company (highly recommended). They recommended that I start with my power conditioner cable (big difference), the DAC ( clear difference, but not as big), pre, and amps (I ... | |
| Shunyata Venom V16 Wow! Upgrade to Hydra Delta D6 or Delta NR cables first? For what it’s worth, I’m running a Delta V2 XC into my PS Audio PowerPlant. Compared against Venom v14 and Alpha. I preferred the Delta. Just added a Delta NR to my DAC, Totally amazing. I compared my Venom to Delta and Alpha into my pre and prefe... | |
| Endgame Vocal+ DAC Help: Terminator Plus 12th vs. Chord DAVE vs. Holo May vs. Weiss502. I have a Weiss 501 and am very happy with it. Tried PS Audio (dull narrow sound stage), McIntosh (digital glare), and Schiit (old system, fine but not inspiring). The Weiss hits the mark for me in bring natural, decent (but not the widest) sound ... | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? OP on a lesser system, I was dealing with the same issue. My solution was a new DAC (Weiss 501) plus using a fiber connection between the Roon core and DAC. The DAC and fiber immediately took the digital edge off the music. Not sure if this is th... | |
| Where to place your best switch? In my recent experience having a fiber connection between the network switch that connects my Roon server to my DAC was a noticeable, inexpensive, upgrade. I put a IFI power supply on the DAC side. This significantly reduced digital glare for me. ... | |
| Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital? My journey has lead me to this digital pathway: 1) Roon 2) fiber Ethernet conversion 3) Shunyata Ethernet 4) Weiss 501 DAC Getting rid of Aurender. | |
| ETHERNET CABLES @lalitk running Roon on an old MacBook Pro that is dedicated to Roon (probably need a dedicated machine in future, but working fine now). Shunyata Ethernet goes from my fiber/Ethernet converter to my DAC |
