| Experience with Bluesound Node 2 use with external DAC @gdnrbob - I just re-read your comments from an earlier post As, I said, when Johnny played music first through the Bluesound and then the Codex, the difference was instantly perceptible. The Codex sounded alive. On second reading I realized thi... | |
| Experience with Bluesound Node 2 use with external DAC @kalali - you can simply go into ebay and search for "12v DC linear power supply" - I found lots to choose from and most of them had nice looking construction using toroid transformers.- raniging form around $70-$150All you might have to do is att... | |
| Adding a turntable to my system @yogiboy - that's a nice little turntable - I like the look of the Orbit plus, which is still very reasonably priced for the included upgradesTakes me back to 1981 - I payed $225 for my Rega Planar IILikes:- the drive belt motor configuration brin... | |
| Adding a turntable to my system @stringreen - I'm finished with upgrades!!!Ever since i upgraded my cables :-) | |
| Adding a turntable to my system @thirsty93 - I’d probably go for the mmf2.3. But that judgement is based on the merits of their 5.3, which is pretty darn good. So the question is - How much less capable is the 2.3?By far the most up-gradable TT (the one with the most after marke... | |
| Experience with Bluesound Node 2 use with external DAC @kalali - have you tried a better power supply on the Dacmagic?I had the original DACmagic prior to my Bifrost and it responded very well when I replaced the power supply. but even with its tweaked power supply, the Bifrost provided better SQ over... | |
| Experience with Bluesound Node 2 use with external DAC Although I have never tried a Musical Fidelity DAC, I did own the v-link192 USB-SPDIF converter, which was superb. Coupled with the Bifrost, it made digital music singIf they put that amount of effort into a USB-SPDIF converter i would have to bel... | |
| Experience with Bluesound Node 2 use with external DAC @randyhat - you would need a pretty good DAC to better the DAC in the Node 2.I had a Schiit Bifrost with the 4490 upgrade. One might think that a $400 external DAC should be better than an all-in-one box. However, the Node 2’s internal DAC+analogu... | |
| Trying to setup new system for digital. Line Magnetic and Double impact speakers @Bobster50 - What you require really depends many things...How much effort do you want to put into getting "superb sound"?- for a very good sounding digital "front end" that streams and comes with an on-board DAC and pretty good analogue stage you... | |
| Adding a turntable to my system Take a look at the Schiit Mani phono stage - it provides for both MM and MC compatibility and has some alternate loading optionsAt $129 - it’s the best bang for the buck right now - and when it’s time to upgrade you can resell it and probably get ... | |
| Dragonfly Red in desktop system - replace with Schiit Bifrost Multibit? @audioneo80 - I’ve owned the Bifrost, but that has since been replaced by a Bluesound Node 2 in my audio system. The SQ is so much better than my v-link192+Bifrost combo and provides a massive 3D imageThe inboard DAC and the Analogue output stage ... | |
| What is your speaker ownership history since 1995? WOW!!! - I'm really having feelings of inadequacy !Here's my very meager list - since 1982- Magnat Ribbon 5's (2 Channel) had them for 33 years - re foamed + rebuilt the crossover and tweaked the bass port - B & W - small ones for L/R + Rear +... | |
