| DAC upgrade I’ll also recommend DENAFRIPS both Ares and Pontus (I actually have both). The Pontus is every bit as good as its reputation. I found it added a sense of realism and warmth to my system. I find it to be almost 3D like. Best way I can describe it. ... | |
| Ripping CDs I have the Brennan B2 and it is amazing! This is the new version called Helix. It is VERY short $$ and it is SOOOO worth it! You can also get it on Amazon. I actually have the B2 right next to my Node in my rig. You’ll want an external DAC and do ... | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice Definitely agree with the Sonus Faber and Revel recommendations. I’ll also throw in Dynaudio. I feel like Dynaudio are one speaker that you almost can’t not like. They sort of ooze out and surround you and draw you in. Whereas some others (like B&... | |
| Bluesound Node settings Thanks @lowrider57 always love to hear good things about an already made purchase, especially this one as this will be my first ever Wireworld product😀! Appreciate the confirmation my friend... | |
| Bluesound Node settings Thank you @dinosore I adjusted those settings. I had reached out to Vinshine and got a reply with a link to a video they have on the DENAFRIPS/Node combo. Very helpful! @williewonka Thank you, I had already ordered the Wireworld Stratus Mini p... | |
| Bluesound Node settings There is “Output Level Fixed” and “Audio Clock Trim”. Do I want these 2 settings on or off? | |
| Bluesound Node settings I have all Transparent speaker cables and IC’s. My first DH Labs was their Power Plus Cryo cable for my Denafrips Ares II DAC which I use for my Brennan B2 cd ripper. I have since come to really appreciate DH Labs cables. It was John at The Cable ... | |
| Bluesound Node settings Thanks @oddiofyl @mahler123. I have literally been all over the map trying to find if there are differences in Coax vs USB. It seems it's almost a split but more leaning towards USB a tad. I know like everything else it's so subjective. Probl... | |
| Bluesound Node settings Thanks for the replies…USB? I’m going coax to the DENAFRIPS. Is there a difference? | |
| Rediscovery Always been a CD guy. In fact I just recently picked up an old Elite 101 disc carousel as a backup to my Brennan B2 which I have ripped all of my cd's to. I switch back and forth between the Elite and the Brennan. I have a DENAFRIPS Ares II 12th o... | |
| There is none out there...... This will do the trick and much less costly than the mesh. You just have to make sure they are on the same circuit. Not circuit as in circuit breaker but as I understand it in the USA there are 2 different zones (call them zones for lack of a bett... | |
| I Cried Today Very touching. You know as I have gotten older when I hear about someone passing, even people I didn’t know and have never and would never meet, it gives me much more pause these days. Even reading this and hearing if John’s passing touches me. Ma... | |
| Speakers 10 years old or older that can compete with todays best, Great post and totally agree! I currently have Revel Performa F228Be. They are breathtaking. But honestly, nothing I've heard or have owned since back in 2001 has come close to Dynaudio Audience 82's. I had to sell my entire rig after my divorce i... | |
| Recommendations for 7 channel amp https://earthquakesound.com/index.php/en/home-audio-division/home-products/home-amplifiers/item/cinenova-7 Joseph Sayhoun is the owner and not only do they build amazing amplifiers, Joseph himself sent me a video of him actually making mine (I ... | |
| 3.2 Channel with upgraded L/R or 5.2 channel? Agree with everyone else. Keep the 5 channels absolutely! I too run 5 channels like you but mostly listen in 2 channel. But every time the wife and I watch a movie we really appreciate those surrounds! How about this; add 2 more REL subs? I run... |
