| Roon 1.8 A great new improvement that is likely not considered by most people is the GPU usage on the ROON client. It used to be so bad that I would shut down the client and restart it again whenever I needed to select music (prior to v1.8). The Client als... | |
| My Room Size for Speaker Consideration @bgm1911 The GIK panels were nice when I had a small monitor in the room, KEF LS50. With that speaker the panels were all I needed. However, I wanted a bigger speaker in this space and the panels really do not solve that problem. They help but rel... | |
| My Room Size for Speaker Consideration I have a Thiel CS3.7 in a 11 x 12 x 9 (plus extra room from closet). See my Virtual System photos. The room is treated with GIK acoustic panels and the digital streaming source is treated with DSP that was setup remotely by a super talented audio ... | |
| Looking for a ‘’No braine’r Integrated amplifier under 7500 or so I have the CODA CSiB and I think it is great. It is the 2018 version and is not even the best version of this unit. Though I imagine the 2021 version is only a bit better. (used 3.4K)I am getting a Krell K-300i integrated hopefully this week. Have... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Bob Dylan & the Band - Before the FloodI normally dislike Dylan but this live recording is amazing. | |

| Luxman m-900u owners - quick question I went to an audio store to audition the 509x and I liked it. I was about to go home when the dealer said have a listen to the m900u/c900u. I had about 15 minutes to do this other wise I would get stuck in LA traffic for hours.Big mistake. The m90... | |
| Preamps with Dual XLR Outputs I did not get the Topping D90 DAC I got the Topping A90 headphone amp and the Matrix Audio Mini-i 3 Pro DAC which is in the same price range as the Topping D90 DAC. It would have made sense to go Topping D90 and A90 stack but my research indicated... | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? I spent $900 for all my GIK acoustic panels. I also spent another $1000 to implement software DSP via professionally crafted Convolution files running on ROON. I am mostly digital streaming so these 2 treatments get me to my destination. I am done. | |
| Preamps with Dual XLR Outputs I had some big plans with this thread's initial question.I ended up with 2 2-channel systems and 2 headphone systems and did not need the dual XLR outputs from a single preamp. I decided to use headphones in the same room as my big speakers. So no... | |
| Benchmark LA4 Preamp? Thanks Tammy for bringing this thread back.@noble100 You are right that I am not getting much work done. That is OK for now since I am on a quiet period work wise. The music sounds so good now that I spend a lot of time being distracted by music i... | |
| Roon - 10 Things You Don't Know Excellent video. I use Convolution files for my 2 channel. I am now going to figure out how to setup Convolution for my 2 headphones. Thanks for that tip. | |
| Benchmark LA4 Preamp? @arafiq The AMT designer, Vlad, told me the same today. Minimum of 50 hours. However, I see others saying 100-150 for some caps that my unit has. This DAC will used mostly with the RAAL SR1a headphones and the CODA CSiB. I think it will be amazin... |
