| Fiber or Eithenet I recommend Linkup CAT 8 - 26AWG from your router to SGC. Send a message to manufacturer through Amazon for custom length. https://a.co/d/cmi1QmN | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @lewm I hear you..sourcing a good plinth wouldn’t be easy as the two outlets I know of wouldn’t sell plinth by itself. I may have to look for alternative TT while I work towards perfecting the 301. | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @noromance @jperry @mdalton @fsonicsmith 301 is up and running for past 6 days. It does sound pretty darn good with $15K tonearm/cart combo. Love the classic industrial appearance. I am still getting acclimated with its strengths and flaws in st... | |
| Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? “I’m guessing your feedback was well into audible spectrum” @mulveling Yes, it was to the point that I couldn’t listen through Allnic as it lacks subsonic filter. I went back to phono board in my Accuphase Integrated, which is pretty darn good ... | |
| Lyra versus Hana IMHO, there are no absolutes in audio as there are no two systems alike and then there are personal preferences. I have owned both Hana ML and Umami Red. And now own Etsuro Bordeaux. Since all carts made by Excel Sound, they share many of the same... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Welcome back Bill! Hope to learn about changes in your system at your convenience! | |
| Solo streamer @rvpiano I concur with @audphile1 advise. All you need a well constructed USB cable. Both DH Labs or Zavfino are reasonably priced and good bang for the buck! If you choose to get one of these cables, just plugged it in and continuing listenin... | |
| Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? Update: Feedback issue resolved by placing IsoAcoustics Iso-Puck Series Acoustic Isolators (Iso-Puck Mini, 6 lbs max/Unit, 8-Pack) x 2. These little ‘pucks’ absorbing all the energy being transmitted from TT to my rack and beyond and vice versa.... | |
| Check This Out! @steinedm1 I really appreciate you for taking the time to chime in. I have heard nothing but positive feedback from folks that were fortunate to audition this DAC and end up buying it. BTW, you have a beautiful system, ever since I’ve heard Alsy... | |
| Next step up on the streaming food chain? @zavato I hear you, outside ROON; the UI App should be a top priority in selecting your next streamer. And no one else does it better than Aurender and Innuos (2nd best) in terms of App performance and build quality. I found Aurender’s Conducto... | |
| Next step up on the streaming food chain? @zavato Since you own a Bricasti DAC, have you considered their M5 Network Player? Outside ROON, take a look at Aurender N200 or N20 (only if you prefer using AES over USB). | |
| Solo streamer @rvpiano You seem to like AQ cables, why not try one of their USB’s like Coffee, https://www.audioquest.com/products/coffee-usb-a-b-digital-audio-cable | |
| Solo streamer @rvpiano Not sure if it’s been already asked, what brand of cables you’re using in rest of the system? More specifically, DAC ➡️ Pre ➡️ Amp ➡️ Spealers and Power Cords. | |
| Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? @wrm57 Thank you for your feedback. You’re spot on Allnic…I found 1:26 ~ 28dB gain as perfect setting. Whether external SUT detracts or adds anything, time will tell. Right now, I am dealing with my TT not liking my REL subs….I need to break th... | |
| Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? @lewm Thank you for your input. I hear you on extra connections but this is something I would like to explore down the road. I wouldn’t know if Allnic is doing full justice to Bordeaux unless I pair it with an external SUT. SUT is not a priority... |
