| Yet another question about streaming I have some experience with Bluesound Node 2i and the Cambridge Azur 851n. I experimented with both of these and my Schiit Gungnir Multibit DAC, connected to the Freya+ preamp via XLR.Using the Gungnir from both streamers, the 851 clearly sounds ... | |
| B&W 805 models... Thanks for that, exactly what I was wondering. I'll start with trying to find a good D3 pair.. | |
| B&W 805 models... Sorry to resurrect a 15 year old thread(!), but I am not finding an answer in my Googling. I heard a new pair of 805's over the holidays and was impressed. I have a smaller listing room and think that this speaker may work well in my space.In se... | |

| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth I pulled the speakers out in front of the console to get them to 5.5' apart..this reveled a much more pronounced soundstage. I can probably tweak them a bit more, but this was an immediate improvement. Coupled with going from the Node direct to ... | |
| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth Yes, I will give that a try, even if temporary. Thanks again. | |
| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth Another factor is that we are probably building a new house next year, so doing anything too crazy to this one is out of the question for now.. The new house will have acoustics in mind when we design it. | |
| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth ghosthouse, That is an issue with our furniture. We have a very long low console that dictates the speakers be 9' apart. I could put them in front of the console, but then they would really be in the middle of the room. Maybe I need to put the ... | |
| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth So I just connected the Node directly to the B2B..immediately the music sounds bigger, though some tracks sound hollow. Is it possible that Qobuz sounds better through Roon than BluOs? Thats the definite impression I have rn. Fun thing to try a... | |
| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth Thanks everyone for the advice. On of the reasons I was looking at the Freya was to get the AVR out of the loop, but sounds like overwhelmingly that getting it out of the system is critical. @ghosthouse You've given me alot to think about, than... | |
| Confused as to where to go next...looking for warmth Thank you, millercarbon and pastorbob. I am using Totem speaker cables and Transparent Audio interconnects. Maybe cold would be a better term than dark. The sound is very clear, but it is just lacking something..maybe the presence you mention.Do... |
