Network optimization for serious streamers
  Just ordered two more of the Linkup 8 cables.  The build quality compared to what I had was night and day.  If interested in Hijirii call Colin King at Gestalt Audio in Nashville.  A great guy, with great equipment and you can test drive the ca... 
Network optimization for serious streamers
@pokey77  I recently received two of the Linkup8 cables to go along with the Muon Pro streaming cables.  Right now I am waiting for my upgraded LDMS.  I am trying to figure out where to use the Linkup cables.  My thought right now is to start at ... 
Network optimization for serious streamers
How important are WAN cables in a network?  Any recommendations?    
Network optimization for serious streamers
@lalitk --thx.  Did you buy the Muon streaming cable also?  I assume that goes from Server to DAC. I am curious as to why you just bought the cheap $36 Linkup cable from the wall to the Filter as opposed to a better cable?    
Network optimization for serious streamers
@sns or anyone else HELP.  I am functionally blind and reading long threads is extremely hard for me.  I am also not a computer / digital expert.  This is a great thread and one that is really timely for me.  So, there are too many suggestions an... 
Albedo Silver Cables
I have their SPDIF cable and it is very good.    
Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k
@pokey77  I really do not like to denigrate products on threads like these.  Let's just say the customer service of Lucas Audio is 100% better than I have had in the past.  I really had no intention of getting another music server as the Lumin X-... 
Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k
I have had the Lumin D-2, U-1 mini, A-1 and X-1.  The X-1 is a very good DAC / Streamer.  I have also had the Laufer Memory Player.  For me the best Music Server under $20k is the Lucas Audio LDMS and his customer service is second to none.  You c... 
Horn speakers with Imaging?
Duke I remember when you shared your vision with me when I was on my horn journey.  At that time you were not in the production stage.  Glad to see you are progressing on your dream  
Lumin X1 and Upgraded DC umbilical cord for power supply.
Ozzy Not with the cords you have mentioned but with my Lucas Audio Music Streamer I use a David Laboga umbilical cord.  It was worth it!  
OMG - Room Acoustics are Critical - WAF be dam-ed!.
I had to have my speakers close to the back wall....Wife....She is worth keeping so I obliged.  So I wondered what would happen if I moved them out 2 inches.  No comments.  A week later I moved them another two inches....no comment.  So I moved th... 
Horn Speaker Recommendations
@roxy ---Yes, relatively new in the last 6 months.  The Aries Cerat needs some major updating.  WBF has an Aries Cerat Thread showing pictures and talking about the Aurora.  I believe there is only one pair in the USA right now.  I was able to lis... 
Horn Speaker Recommendations
A new update as of this week.  I am changing all of my equipment.  Gone will be Canary Audio Grand Reference 300 B Monoblocks, Canary Audio C1800 PRe Amp, Viking Acoustic Grande Voix Speakers, and my Lampizator Horizon DAC.  I have to say this was... 
QSA Power Jitter Power Conditioner, anyone tried it?
In the past, I have been a fan of all of the SR fuses. I then went to the QSA yellow fuses. I did not try the SR purple. I had them in all of my components. However, since the end of last year, I have added the Lampizator Horizon, DAC, and Aries C... 
Upgrade decision, power conditioner or music server
CALL MIKE at Tweek Geeks and order a 30-day trial on the QSA Jitter Conditioner red or red/black plug.  Plug that into the end of your conditioner to the wall outlet.  What have you got to lose?  It makes a big difference.  I purchased the silver ...
