Uninsulated bare copper wire for turntable ground OK? Thanks all!. My maintenance personal had bare copper wire at my business so it would be convenient. I just wanted to avoid indoor stores (hardware) as I am in Los Angeles where COVID is raging. Turns out, I needed to buy a door knob for my wife... | |
Which speaker wire does this hook up to? Thanks all. I will get a multimeter. | |
How too clean top/sides of black metal on McIntosh units I tried the Magic Eraser tonight on two MC units and it cleared up the unevenness. I did dry the tiny amount of residual moisture immediately with a microfiber towel. This seems optimal as it doesn’t add additional chemicals. Thanks. | |
Keep on power surge protector all the time even when system off? Thanks, I have a McIntosh MPC500 and spoke with them. Even if the display is off by pressing the Outlet button, it is still functionally ON and protecting the system according to them. The LED lights below each numbered outlet remains lit at lo... | |
How too clean top/sides of black metal on McIntosh units Thank you for all the replies. I already have a Magic Eraser so will try that initially. | |
Streamers - Cambridge Audio CXN (V2) or Blue Node 2i I’m very interested in this streamer too to use with the complimentary CX81 integrated amp in a satellite system. I auditioned the older Azur 851N which was streaming via WiFi from Apple Music loaded on an iPad and it sounded good. | |
Are there specific NAS requirements for streaming? Thanks. In regards to using an external HD, I just transferred my iTunes library so the library would not take too much space on my internal drive of my Mac mini. Currently the computer directly feeds into my DAC which then feeds into my pre-amp. ... | |
What streamer? How is playing through AirPlay different from native support via WiFi? | |
What streamer? Thanks to all who have responded. I went to a local stereo store and they demonstrated the Cambridge Audio Azure 851NQ network player along with the 851W which allowed WiFi streaming from a local iTunes library as well as Apple Music. It was toute... | |
Connect optical/digital audio out on TV to pre-amp or DAC? As an aside, my dealer and others I see online are discounting the Pioneer Elite UDP-LX500. This unit doesn’t have 7.1 analog out but is their high end model for the USA. Apparently there is a higher level model with balanced audio outputs but no... | |
Connect optical/digital audio out on TV to pre-amp or DAC? Hello caphill,I do want to have the ability to watch the highest definition discs and plan on getting a OLED Sony. What makes the Oppo 105 a much better universal player than the latest Panasonic? The rest of my my system is older as though I bou... | |
Connect optical/digital audio out on TV to pre-amp or DAC? I just found that the Panasonic DP-UB9000 blue ray player has 7.1 output. | |
Connect optical/digital audio out on TV to pre-amp or DAC? Wow, CaphillThat is all great information. As I only recently begun to become re-acquainted with more high performing equipment, I no longer have the option of the Oppo 205. I don't think another blue ray player with multichannel analog output i... | |
Connect optical/digital audio out on TV to pre-amp or DAC? Thanks glennewdick, I'd like to keep the multichannel set up so I guess I cannot use the Yiggy for my video set up. | |
Turntable newbie info site? Thank you all for the advice. I ordered an AT MM cartridge from Crutchfield which is also coming next week. Moving from NJ to CA so everything is being shipped to LA. I don’t even have a LP so will need to buy a record this weekend. |
