| Speakers: Anything really new under the sun? @holmz "I can point to handfuls of speakers I would be happy with, from quite a few manufactures. That gets a lot harder in the $1000 range as there are usually 2 or more flaws so we have your “Pros and cons”… the better ones just have fewer con... | |
| Speakers: Anything really new under the sun? @audioguy85 Indeed! I bought a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 12.2's this year. I've been fooling around in the audio world since the mid 70's. The 12.2's are much better than anything available, inflation compensated, for the same money in the 70's... | |
| 2nd systems- who’s got one? @corelli - nothing to be embarrassed by at all- @big_greg - i like the way you think! | |
| Aurender Conductor latest fail… interesting- Auralic's DS Lightning app also recently had am update and Auralic users were then experiencing DS crashing when selecting a favorite album. Wonder if both updates were prompted by a Qobuz update and then similarly affected both Auren... | |
| 2022 - Ideal Network Transport I have what I think is a pretty decent system (curious? see my profile). I decided to explore the streaming world in 2021 and bought a new node, which I am highly impressed by. It is far from perfect, but for a budget piece of equipment it makes t... | |

| RCA cables to a subwoofer- how much does it matter? @jtcf Eh, not much of a highjack. Just a slight detour | |
| Percentage of cable cost About 10%, maybe less- | |
| Anyone using a LAN isolator? @lalitk - thanks- I love my older gear! The newer stuff too- | |
| Anyone using a LAN isolator? @jerrybj @lalitk Early impressions- all positive- rounder tone but with no loss of details. I can only surmise that although I did not perceive any noise in my system, the RL1-iGB-Triple C must suppress whatever noise there was which overlayed... | |
| Anyone using a LAN isolator? @lalitk I took your suggestion and now have an Acoustic Revive RL1-1GB-Triple C Lan Isolator connected to my ethernet cable which itself (the Acoustic Revive) is connected my Auralic Aries G1. I have listened less than 2 hours so far, and everyt... | |
| Harmonic Technology Magic Link soldering issues @rsf507 I too had a failed solder connection on a pair of Pro Silways long ago- and my pair were not pulled in any way. I desoldered everything as I thought the soldering workmanship was mediocre at best. |
