| HoloAudio Cyan 2 DAC I have been using the Cyan 2 for about 3 months and love it. I’m set after trying out 10 different DACs the last few years. Upgraded the streamer into it from a Bluesound Node N130 to an Innuos Zen Mk3 streamer with a Pine tree Audio USB cable and... | |
| HOW DID YOU END UP WITH YOUR DREAM SYSTEM? For me it was through upgrading my equipment over time. I decided to move from a home theater setup to one focused on music. Went from integrated equipment to separates which made it easier to upgrade. I’ve been working on it for about 3 years ... | |
| Streamer question Excellent Holo Audio streamer. I have the Cyan 2 and love it. I picked up an Innuos Zen Mk3 streamer with 1TB storage to rip CDs and the pairing sounds great. Got it used from a helpful local dealer for $1800. Innuos has a range of streamer op... | |
| Top 10 Live Albums Excellent list thanks. All 3 are classic. The Last Waltz was a midnight moving showing back in the day. Saw it on a lot of Saturday nights. | |
| Vintage JBL Floor Standing Speakers JBL L100 classics. I almost bought a used pair of the recent reboot with the stands even though I had no where to put them. My wife talked me off the ledge before I could buy them. I still want a pair. Maybe when she goes out shopping… | |
| Whole Lotta Led That should be a great rockumentary. Can’t get enough Led. | |
| Songs that no matter how many times you listen, you never get tired of them Steely Dan all day. Here’s my six: Bargain - The Who Roundabout - Yes Cowgirl in the Sand - Neil Young and Crazy Horse ‘Bertha - the Grateful Dead Day of the Eagle - Robin Trower Voodoo Chile slight return - Jimi Hendrix | |
| Ugliest Component of the Year 2024! Lubachi, that’s it! Looks like some kind of flower that would grow in the Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Run for your lives! Ahhhhhh! | |
| Ugliest Component of the Year 2024! Great list so far. Mc is definitely not for everyone. If it has those blue meters I could go for it. Glowing green tubes just add to the fun. My question with Tekton is, when do they know they’ve added enough drivers? When they reach the top ... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Talking Heads are excellent. I’ve been listening to the reissue of Talking Heads 77. Great stuff. | |
| 2 separate sets of speakers one amp I use a NEOHIPO ET30 and it works well. Has a remote to switch between up to 2 amps and 2 sets of speakers. It also has 2 light up meters that you can adjust for the swing sensitivity and color. A poor man’s Mc meters if you will. Got mine on ... | |
| The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued So many tracks from the 1st 5 Black Sabbath albums. I’ll pick a few. War Pigs - from their 2nd album Paranoid. Fairies Wear Boots - from their 1st album Black Sabbath. Children of the Grave - from Master of Reality. Snowblind - from Volume 4.... | |
| Moving from a stereo amp to a dual mono set up Thanks for sharing your experience. We’ve probably all been there. It’s why this hobby is a journey and not a destination. Enjoy the journey. If not it’s like taking the kids on a long car ride on vacation with shouts of, Are we there yet? Ar... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? The Who - Quadrophenia. Deluxe set. | |
| Looking for High Quality Streamer Only Options (NO DAC)? Another vote for Innuos. I have the Zen Mk3 that I bought from a great local dealer used for $1800. The Innuos Sense app is the best interface I’ve used. Excellent customer support with upgrades online as needed. |
