Integrated for Streaming I had a Naim Unity Atom and it’s very good for what it is. The software and interface are easy. I sold it as the apartment I used for work is no more. A used Lumin T2 or new T3 will blow away the bluesound/schitt gear. Once upon a time I had a Bl... | |
Streamers/DACs Mytek Brooklyn Bridge II another great streamer too. But…… As for the LUMIN is has Leedh Processing Volume control. Meaning the streamer works as a pre amp (exceptionally well). Mytek does this too ( no pre needed) but not with Leedh. Worth a rea... | |
Streamers/DACs Lumin T3 No Roon until you do! | |
Primaluna or not Primaluna @simna Yup Sensitivity: 89 dB. Thought they wwre more like 96db. I rhink given your budget and desire to roll roll roll a PL is your best bet. The el34’s are sweet dispite less power than 88’s or 150’s. PL’s auto bias and don’t run tubes hard. Y... | |
Primaluna or not Primaluna Oups. Europe. Ok. More than your budget (maybe used?) but a FELIKS AUDIO ARIOSO 300B INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER will be the cat’s pyjamas. Maybe help finance by selling all your tubes. Seriously. | |
Primaluna or not Primaluna I had (two) PrimaLuna HP's (w/KT88's) and they were good but I wanted better and more power for my not so efficient speakers. After a lot of reading and some trials I went with a Rogers High Fidelity integrated. It's stunning, This is on eBay Ro... | |
Upgrading power system Out in the sticks we have world class poor dirty power. I had a Furman IT-Reference 15i and it was a sound dampener. Amp/system sounded considerably better when Amp was plugged into the wall. Replaced that with a AudioQuest Niagara 7000 (before t... | |
Router for Audio Streaming OP, inliers & outliers, Garbage in….Garbage out. Just as lamp cord for speaker connections is poor so is the entire Ethernet chain if not treated accordingly. Gussy that up and reap the rewards. | |
cost no object integrated amps Rogers High Fidelity integrated Amp 34S-1 Integrated Amplifier (21k), KWM-88 Integrated Amplifier (16,5k more with KT-170 tubes and worth it!), EHF-200/EHF-200 MK2 Integrated Amplifier (13,5-16.7k) go far beyond "their weight" A few of us here hav... | |
Chord Dave and lInear power supply I recently replaced a Sbooster used for a Roon Nucleus with a JS-2 Linear Power Supply (w/Sapphire DC Cable) made by uptown audio. Another case of a real dynamic improvement from a PSU. | |
Router for Audio Streaming I use a ubiquity enterprise router where service comes into house then into the wall and then out feeding feeding into an EtherREGEN with an afterdark PSU and clock. Once I replaced a cheap router and filtered the signal it made considerable di... | |
To ROON or not to ROON ? Roon + Qobuz = Pandora’s box with a lovely interface. | |
Basic switch....should I upgrade? @fastfreight Welcome to the M12 KoolAid club. I also had a lot of back and forth emails. Marcin’s English is excellent. What did you do for power? You saved a few hundred USD as the Euro is sluggish My unit should be here in two-three weeks. T... | |
First Streamer... Another homer over the fence by @ghdprentice. His 62 this season. | |
Basic switch....should I upgrade? @jerrybj How did you come up with those mods and build please? Did you put it together yourself? What’s the overall cost? I’m not asking for my self but we know there’s more than just a little bit of interest in ethernet improvement from the old b... |
