Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k
@designsfx i think I will look into Lumin options. Liked the suggestion of the U1x. Also, liked options shown on analog audio. They showed some items with great specs.  Most of music has been ripped or comes from Hi Res files. Tomorrow will have t...

@ designsfx Roon has been my one constant.  I have a 16 TB Sinology DS918+ also attached to my network.  Currently I have about 50,000 tracks, mostly Hi Res that the Roon accesses.  What I love about the Roon software is that goes out and grabs th...

@thyname it's not that the MSB didn't do it for me it sounds amazing.....it's just that the Nagra Tube Dac with the Power supply (similar price to MSB) sounded significantly better in my opinion and delivered a much better soundstage.  So it's not...

Thanks so far everyone for your thinking.  Ironically, I had NOT thought of the X1 but what a terrific suggestion.  Demoed the Innuous MK 3 this past summer with an MSB Dac.  Was not overly impressed by the speed of the computer. Felt like it had ... 
Roon….can anyone point me to “human” tech support
Thanks everyone!!  I did not post on forum. I will though.    The last thing I recall doing was upgrading a USB cable to improve my sound by connecting Roon Nucleus+ to my dac directly along with a new Ethernet cable.    yes, I can access my int... 
Roon….can anyone point me to “human” tech support
My issue is that after I select my Roon Core the next page becomes a spooling logo until it ultimately times out hours later.   I have performed all the obvious rebooting of everything including going into the exact IP address and reloading as ... 
I have NOVA V's and I am not happy
Couple thoughts you may want to add into your equation.  What source/s are you experiencing these issues with….Dac, phono?  OR is everything equally less than acceptable in sound?  Do you have any other speakers that you could hook up to provide s...
