| Anyone else order Caladans from Clayton Shaw? @ozzy62 @speedthrills You need to fully read the posts. Speedthrills clearly mentions the coincidence of @whiteknee hearing from Clayton after posting to this forum. | |
| Does Qobuz work @mojo771 The 15 seconds of play time for each track is clearly associated with a login issue. I've experienced this and resolved it by making sure my login credentials were correct. Did Qobuz resolve this for you? Claiming TIDAL has a much large... | |
| What was the first power cable that you noticed a difference in the sound? @carlsbad2 Jerry, intuitively it makes sense that the low power requirements of DAC's & Streamers wouldn't benefit by upgraded power cables, but my experience proved otherwise. I had my Shunyata dealer send me 3 Shunyata power cables, includ... | |
| Is anybody using the new Afterdark music server? @yoby I don't understand your question. Are you saying that you've never auditioned a true music server such as an Aurender ACS100? | |
| Is anybody using the new Afterdark music server? @yoby I thought the days of general purpose computers disguised as purpose-built music servers was well behind us. I was surprised by the $5,600 price. The purpose built Aurender ACS100 at $3,500 is likey a better choice . If you're happy, that's... | |
| Intg Amps: Hegel 590 vs NAD M33 Masters vs Gryphon Diablo 120 @gill_benedek Hard to compare a NAD Masters M33 to the Gryphon Diablo 120. I consider the NAD as a convenient lifestyle swiss army knife product that really doesn't excel at anything. The amp of the NAD doesn't deliver ample current to control ... | |
| Qobuz email looks suspicious @larsman I checked the From email address and was also suspicious. Instead of coming from the qobuz domain it was sent from a gmail domain. | |
| Question about Shunyata Power Conditioners @xcool I'm a big fan of Shunyata technology as I have a full loom of Shunyata power, speaker, interconnect and Ethernet cables. I also have the Everest conditioner which you mentioned is out of your price range. You may want to consider listenin... | |
| The best part about MQA bankruptcy.. @onhwy61 Sorry about that. I now see you were the one that used the 'unfolding' line. Very clever. | |
| The best part about MQA bankruptcy.. @erik_squires Thanks for bringing the MQA bankruptcy news to our attention. I have to think the sunsetting of MQA is largely based on whether TIDAL is gaining or losing subscribers to Qobuz or other hi-res music subscription services. As we all... | |
| STREAMER People that say a PC doesn't make a difference especially for digital source components usually means they have components worthy of hearing a difference, like a Bluesound Node device. | |
| 2023 Florida Audio Expo Show Report @gkr7007 Completely agree about the Clarisys rooms. Terrific sound,. What did you think about the entry level Minuet model? The specs say it goes down to 28Hz. I thought it could use a sub to add some slam. I used to have Maggie 20.7's and adding... | |
| 2023 Florida Audio Expo Show Report @mofojo @jackd In his YouTube of the Eminent room, Rick2000 is so busy listening to himself speak he failed to hear the vendor tell everyone there are 2 rear firing woofers configured out of phase. I guess in Rick2000's world listening is optio... | |
| Streaming Dac $5000-8000 @acdvd In your original post you didn't mention you had a Boulder 866. I owned one and also hated having using MConnect. I was hoping Boulder would create an app. I did hear the 866 with Roon and you may want to get a trial version of Roon befor... |
