| Rogue Audio RP-1 DAC use I have the same question, what digital cable are you using to connect to the DAC? These can make a big difference. | |
| Need Opinions for Different Cable Manufacturers/Cable Designs +1 for Acoustic Zen. These cables opened my eyes to the impact of good cables. I use their speaker wire and balanced interconnects, and I believe that they will deliver the natural sound you are seeking. | |
| New Router, New Streamer, New Questions The CXN100 has a USB input port for media, have you tried that? Or do you need it on the network for other systems? If so, the NAS is a good suggestion. | |
| DACs - Holo/Kitsune, Bricasti, PS Audio, dCS, etc I was very interested in buying one of the Holo products, but eventually decided against it after reading that page. Electronics are very reliable these days, but if the thing bricks, it sounds like a long wait and/or ship back to Asia for service. | |
| Amps that don’t impersonate space heaters. I recently moved my Coda #8 v1 into a new cabinet that has glass doors on the front, but with an open back. I was worried about heat building up around the amp so I placed a digital thermometer next to it, it reads in the mid-70’s F even after hou... | |
| Updating my streamer I moved from an Aurender N10 to an Innuos Zenith and I am really glad that I did, mainly because the software is much better, and the sound is comparable. My point is that the software is a big part of the experience and should be a deciding facto... | |
| DH Labs - Shunyata Cable Comparison Thanks for sharing, I have been through the same process, starting with Blue Jeans cables as well. Like others have stated, it does take some time for cables and your brain to acclimate to a change. My experience is it takes a minimum of three day... | |
| Elipson Planet M: quality; power requirements for desktop use? The Genelecs aren’t any uglier than the Elipsons, unless you foolishly got the bare metal finish on the Genelecs. 😀 Seems like a lot of work and expense to change to a passive speaker, guessing the extra wiring and clutter will not help with WAF. ... | |
| QLN Prestige 3 I will have to give Borreson another chance, in a better setting, and with my music. | |
| QLN Prestige 3 Not perfect circumstances, but I heard the QLN top of the line and Borreson’s at AXPONA. I fell in love with the QLN’s and want to demo a pair, thought I think I could only handle the 1’s in my space. My impression of the Borreson speakers was sim... | |
| So, I bought a Chord Hugo TT2...now what? That’s a nice system! Underserved by the Node I think. As others have said, let it settle in for a bit. Clocking and noise are key factors with digital. If you are using coax, the Node is providing the clock, which is not ideal. If you are using U... | |
| The Audiophile Song - Who Can Relate? Hilarious, and spot on. | |
| Advice needed: It's time for a new DAC Good reviews, thanks for sharing. | |
| Magnepans VS MartinLogan for detail and sound staging I am not sure if those Maggie’s can deliver what you are looking for, I have not heard them outside a showroom. But assuming that they can, I think you are limited by the all in one Peachtree solution. Getting to the next level would require some ... | |
| Solo streamer The set is sounding so good this morning I can’t imagine how a cable is going to make it sound better. As I commented earlier I replaced mine a few weeks ago and I am still marveling at the improvement. I hope that you have a similar experience. |
