Streamed music sounds awful in my system and I don't know why ....
cd's spun in a transport are so much more satisfying. Streamed content lacks body, bass, and correct timbre.
DAC is the Moon 780 driven by Moon's transport with Audience Front Row loom. Streamed source originates from Windows Media Player platform into the same DAC 780 via CAT 6 cable hardwired into a Spectrum router.
If I wanted to upgrade the streaming experience, where would I start ?
Rest of system -Shindo Giscours pre-amp, VAC Phi 300 amp, Purist speaker cables feeding Wilson Sophia 3's.
Thanks for any guidance.
many times its the built in streamer.

@yyzsantabarbara , thanks, I didn’t know that about either roon or jriver, never used convolution and if you primarily stream, great. |
@audiotroy calling BS as I can hear no difference streaming from my Innuos Statement and the Mind2 in my 680D. Crystal freaking clear on matter the streaming source, Using USB, RCA, AES, XLR all sound clear and tone in neutral. I would use the Mind2 software or Roon and get the Windows Media out of the chain as Mr @lalitk said. Have you done any firm wear updates on your 780 through the Mind2 software? Sorry peddlers bother me. |
