| Network Switches https://www.sonore.us/systemoptique.htmlI just looked at the link above again and read about option 4 for Fiber Optical to an audio system.Currently, in my office, I use my electrically noisy (or busy) computer with a microRendu. I could skip buyi... | |
| Network Switches I should have used the terminology that @allane posted above to be clearer in my explanation.@grannyring You can use a RJ45 switch which also has optical fiber connection. Take a look at the following product. I will buy this one for $200 and repl... | |
| Network Switches @grannyring I am not sure if you are referring to the OPTICAL connection on a DAC or the OPTICAL I am referring to which is analogous to RJ45 Ethernet cable. https://www.ui.com/accessories/fiber-modules-cable/ | |
| Network Switches @steakster thanks for the link. I was considering the following. https://www.ui.com/unifi-switching/unifi-switch-8-150w/ I am a big fan of Ubiquiti as a company. | |
| Network Switches At one time I was thinking that an Ethernet connection on a DAC was the future. I even started a thread a few years ago asking what others thought about this.However, today I hear the talk of noise on the Ethernet line and why that may not be some... | |
| April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm! There are quite few review sites that compare the products under review with other similar items. My favorite site is the very popular Soundstage.com. I like almost all the reviewers writing there and they also answer email. https://hometheaterhi... | |
| April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm! What is interesting for me on these A'Gon threads is that the Vandersteen threads usually have the same participants and other speaker threads tend to have a variety of participants. This thread for example has people who like the Personas and oth... | |
| Thiel Owners Actually the ceiling is 25+ feet. The Width is 12 and Length is 21 feet. It is impossible for me to put the speakers along the long wall. California homes for the most part are not audio friendly.Do you think the short wall (with non-uniform side ... | |
| Thiel Owners A hypothetical question. How would the Thiel 3.7 sound in room that is 12’ W x 21’ L + 25' H. The main issue is the unequal side wall distances.The speaker would need to go on the short wall. Facing the speakers, the right speaker would be 2 feet ... | |
| Vimberg has a bookshelf coming out I wrote the Canadian importer of Vimburg speakers to ask him the following question. I wonder how far into a room the Amea has to be placed. This is a 3 way design with a rear firing woofer. His replySorry for the late reply, we were very busy p... | |
| Is it even possible to set up a system in 12x12 room? https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/7605 My office is the same size as your room and it sounds pretty amazing now. I am going to put a new system in there since I figured out how to tame the room. I am looking at a few small floor standers and... | |
| Who needs a Preamp?? In my case direct to amp was not better when I listened at low volumes. It was not even close to the quality as with a good preamp. I listen late at night when family is sleep (when I should be too). | |
| Pre-amplifier suggestions Luxman c900u is my #1 choice but I will first try the Benchmark LA4 on the 30 day home trial because it may work for 1/6th the price, the amp is the Luxman m900u. The c900u can hang with the preamps on your list.https://www.soundstagehifi.com/ind... | |
| Why pay so much? From a purely economic standpoint it is great to see someone spend $70K on cables. That $70K is not sitting in a bank but distributed into the economy were it can be spent many more times over and do a lot of good. I know the bank can invest that ... | |
| Rossini vs Ayre Upgrade @david_ten Don't you have the Denafrips Terminator? If so, it will be interesting to see your comparison of the DT with something that is 5x more expensive. |
