| Whats on your turntable tonight? I have a $2.98 used copy of Aja that I use as a reference whenever I make changes to one of my turntables. I have a MOFI and a heavyweight copy of it also, but the 3 dollar one sounds great.I've been really happy with most of the MOFI vinyl pr... | |
| Tube pre for class d recommendations @noble100 Tim, Thanks for the comments. I'm not trying to warm up anything with the LS26. I expect the LS26 to be detailed and revealing. I currently have a Jolida Fusion tube preamp in that system and it's pretty good, but I don't think it's l... | |

| The Music Room I've never bought from them, but have seen plenty of their ads. From this thread, they seem to be trustworthy, but they currently have an ad for a B&O 8002 turntable with a clearly damaged dustcover hinge and no mention of it in the descript... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Malibu Ken - S/T | |
| Catastrophic Accident! What To Do!? Thanks for sharing the happy ending to the story, that's great news! | |
| What are you streaming tonight? I haven't heard the EL8. I have LCD-2 and LCD-XC. The LCD-4 are the best headphones I've heard. My girlfriend is listening to the remaster of the white album with them right now. Thank goodness she's supportive of my hobby! | |
| Do I have to use a streamer/renderer to play music from an NAS? It doesn't look like your preamp supports dlna, so yes, you'll need something external. A bluesound node 2i or something similar would work. | |
| Tube pre for class d recommendations I just ordered a used ARC LS26 from an Audiogon dealer to mate up with my Wyred 4 Sound ST-1000 MKII. I should be able to share some impressions next week. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? My new (to me) Audeze LCD4's showed up yesterday! I'm listening to the Cars - Heartbeat City. | |
| Mytek Brooklyn overkill? I've been really happy with my Mytek Liberty DAC. I haven't compared to the Brooklyn, but I do have an Auralic Vega (3 1/2 times the cost of the Liberty) and a few other DACs to compare it to. The Liberty is very detailed and a bit "analytical",... | |
| What am I missing streaming music with a Node 2i The DAC in the Node 2 is very good considering its price, but connecting the Node 2 to my Auralic Vega takes it to another level. I already had the Vega before I got the Node 2, but I don't consider adding a better DAC to be a "waste". I'm plann... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The Ballad of Todd Rundgren. He's a genius. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? @uberwaltz That's a good description for the Teal album also. I really enjoyed it. The Santana EP was really nice also, I was wishing there was more when it reached the end. | |
| What am I missing streaming music with a Node 2i That seems like a question only you can answer. Is it meeting your streaming needs? Are you happy with the way it sounds?I have a Node 2 in my main system and am running it through my Auralic Vega DAC and the sound quality is better than using t... |
