Make Internet Radio Sound "Better"?


Apart from the dac one chooses to use, are there any tweaks to make Internet Radio sound "better"? Or are you limited by your Internet connection?

"You are the one who recommended the Stello."

me? Really? I plead innocent.

I think you are mistaken. Check the posts. Cdente mentioned it from what I can tell. I never heard of the gadget until I checked in response to your inquiry regarding if it will work after you apparently bought it.

You are the one who recommended the Stello.
I clearly stated that I was using a Transporter. You should be more careful before handing out advice. People think you know.

That's what you get for taking the advice of a bunch of nuts on an audio forum!!!!
marcorber, i can't see where anyone told you to buy a stello 3--one member (not the one that you're apparently screaming at) merely mentioned he was using one to listen to 192kbps stations. in any event, if you're transporter doesn't have a usb output, maybe you can use a usb to toslink adapter (such as behringer ufo2020, which costs around $25) to connect. but check it out for yourself--i don't want to be yelled at either.
Adapters might be an inexpensive solution but are usually workarounds and not optimal. Try it and see. No guarantees.

I have thick skin ( I hope) so you can yell at me if you want, but always a good idea to at least make sure you are yelling at the right person.

Strike 1: bought incompatible device because someone apparently mentioned it (not me)

Strike 2: unless other communication occurred outside this thread, it appears that the mere mention was taken as a recommendation. An honest mistake maybe, but still strike 2.

Strike 3: yelling at someone for recommending it who did not even mention it prior

Technically your out already, but to hell with the rules. You only live once....

Marcober, seriously, you are on a bad roll in regards to making mistakes, so please be careful driving and crossing the street. An audio gadget not working should be the worse thing that happens to you!
