| Stack Audio-SmoothLAN Network Filter- WOW! I added one of these to my system a couple weeks ago and it is a nice change. Not quite night and day, but I prefer the system with it in place. Without sifting through all the posts again, has anyone experimented with replacing the supplied ethe... | |
| help me choose between Audionet and Constellation Audio I am now the proud owner of @dpm2340 ‘s Audionet G2 and Amp 1. The G2 is amazing, a huge upgrade from my Pass XP-12. I saw that G2 for sale, that is an insane price. I would ask the owner if they know the true age of the unit. I only say that beca... | |
| Are using hearing aids for stereo listening like trying to push a river through a straw? I will just add that you should wear them every day for a month or so, it takes time for your brain to adjust, but it will slowly filter out some of the negative aspects. | |
| System assessment... +1 for AXPONA. I went this year to hear a variety of speakers, and systems of course. It is a great way to get some perspective. I was able to rule out a lot of them, and put some on my wish list. | |
| Enough is Enough Per @mitch2 ’s excellent six DAC review thread, maybe a demo of Mojo or Merason would be worth a shot. | |
| How does sound influence your appreciation? Definitely the case for me. I have developed a huge appreciation for jazz as my system has improved. Listening to it in my car is not nearly as engaging or rewarding. | |
| KEF Reference 1 or LS60 I have the same KEF’s, is there anything in particular that you are missing or would like to improve? Positioning is important and can greatly improve performance, it sounds like you may have found some more magic doing that. I recently introduced... | |
| System assessment... Try https://choiceaudio.com in Minneapolis. They are knowledgeable and carry some excellent brands. | |
| System assessment... Congrats on retirement, I am three years in and enjoying it very much. And a nice system, I too have the Reference One’s, a very capable speaker. How is your listening time split between analog and digital? Any plans to add streaming? If you are ... | |
| Wrapping power cords and interconnects with copper foil. You have discovered one reason why better cables matter. Proper shielding makes a big difference. I recently acquired a new to me power amplifier that only supports RCA. I tried several cables on hand, none expensive, one had hum, one was murky, t... | |
| Thoughts: Mofi Sourcepoint 888 vs Fyne Audio 501sp? Sorry if it was mentioned, but what are the destination room dimensions? And what type of amplification? These are both high sensitivity speakers, is that a requirement? | |
| Weak link That’s a great system. +1 for dedicated lines. If you are technically inclined get a usb mic and fiddle with REW to see how your room rates. Then look at room treatment. I have tried and like the WireWorld Eclipse interconnects, but you might try ... | |
| Solid State Preamp to replace tube unit I commented earlier in this thread that I have been happy with my Pass XP-12, it offered a nice balance in comparison to the other preamps that I tried. However, I chanced upon a good deal on an Audionet G2, I struggle to find the words to describ... | |
| Speaker cables with good timbre +1 on the Acoustic Zen Hologram, these deliver what you are looking for. |
