| RBH Speakers Oops, just saw the brand in the title. Not a lot out there on these speakers. Depending on your budget, there are probably quite a few better known options. The 375BEE will drive just about anything, I used to have on, so you are good to go there. | |
| RBH Speakers It is not clear from your post what brand the speakers are, can you be more specific? | |
| Favorite mid-tier streamer +1 Innuos. | |
| PS Audio BHK signature preamp Scratch your itch and upgrade the Mogami interconnects. Try something with OCC copper. | |
| Which of my components has the better built in DAC? I am guessing the Mac has a better DAC, but it does come down to listening. As for the connection, ignore optical, it is down to USB or Coax. Using coax, all of the clocking ( and jitter) will come from the source, I.e. the Node. With USB only the... | |
| Speaker Isolation tweaks ? Using the Gaia II’s on my KEF Reference One’s improved my soundstage. It is critical that the feet are on a smooth surface so they can grip it, or use their carpet spikes. It also requires that your speakers are very firmly attached to the stands ... | |
| New Electrical Circuit This will be a significant upgrade for you. If you don’t like the price on the audiophile outlets, Hubbell 5362’s are very good. | |
| Rega Brio R vs Yamaha M2 Basing your decision purely on specs can make for a long search. Do some research on the character of the amps and the sound you are seeking, or what is missing with the Rega. Post your budget here and you will get a lot of advice real fast. | |
| Solid State Preamp to replace tube unit I have been through a number of solid state preamps, Schiit, Benchmark, Coda, Ayre and Pass. I have a Coda amp, but did not like their 07x pre, though it was an earlier version than the one reviewed by Teajay. Noisy. I liked the Ayre, but a quirky... | |
| PayPal Friends & Family listings. Why is this becoming so common? I have had some scammers beg me to let them use regular PayPal when buying from me. The seller takes all the risk. If you want hard guarantees, buy from a dealer. I have made numerous purchases using F&F with no problems. Do your homework, ask... | |
| Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio @boulder_bob I think they are these: https://www.screenbeam.com/products/home-networking/screenbeam-ecb6200/ It looks like you need coax wiring in your house. | |
| Streaming, Getting the Signal, Then What? Lots of the usual advice here. Is their anything about the current system that bothers you or makes you think you could or should do better? | |
| Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio @boulder_bob I would agree that the range extender probably has a noisy power supply. With a setup as sophisticated as yours, I expect that the cable sounds pretty good, strip everything out of there and you might get my results. It sounds like yo... | |
| Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio Interesting, my results were exactly the opposite. Out of curiosity, what streamer are you connecting and what are you using for a cable to the TP-Link? | |
| Stand Mount Speakers for Classic Rock that sound alive at lower volumes ? Klipsch rock for rock, even at low levels. I had Heresy II’s for many years. Might need a subwoofer though. |
