Streaming vs Physical Media

Fidelizer is a manufacturer of very good quality products. I have no experience with the featured Airstream Wi-Fi product. I do however  use their Nikola 2  linear power supply with my Pro-Ject RS2T CD transport and it is a fantastic pairing. I'm thoroughly happy with the sound quality'

Thank you for sharing the info on router and picture of your setup. I must handed to you on your dedication and diligence in ensuring what appears to be a sublime streaming system.

I was offered the Linn cd12 at at great prices the dealer was wanting rid of it and I should have done what it took to buy that one but I past on it back in the day.

Yes, the original price was rather steep. I heard one at a London show around 20 years ago, and whilst it didn’t fully convince me, I was certainly impressed by vastness of the size and scale of the image it literally threw out into the room.

Strawberry Fields Forever has never sounded the same since.

Having said all of that, nothing (so far) can match streaming for sheer convenience. Particularly if, like me, you’re not one to play albums from start to finish.

I can’t think of than a dozen like that.

So just imagine having over 100GB of music at your fingertips.

Sheer bliss.

I agree with you wholeheartedly on clean power and synergy. That’s what I set out to accomplish four years ago when I started putting together my current system. And yes, Sablon Ethernet cables are well designed and highly sought after. I did reach out to Mark Coles to make me a set of Ethernet cable with M12 connectors but to my disappointment, he stopped working with M12 plugs. I end up going with JCAT Signature LAN GOLD M12 X, amazing cable and I couldn’t be any happier with end results.

Thank you again for your recommendation on Fidelizer router, definitely going to audition one in very near future.
