| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD @mattnshilp Great post (thank you)! IMO, MQA has opened the flood gate on possibilities of higher bit rate streaming. Here's to good times 🍻BTW, LG V30 smartphone will be the first to stream MQA playback. "The LG V series is a premium flagship sma... | |
| Does anyone have problems with the Audiogon seller engine? I would contact Audiogon support with your issue. You should hear back from someone within 24-48 hours. http://support.audiogon.com/customer/portal/emails/new | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD @toetapaudio,Thanks for sharing the articles but they are somewhat outdated. Lot has changed in last one year. There is lot more MQA albums now available on Tidal. As some of us already pointed out, MQA albums do sound better than their 16bit cou... | |
| Spend more money on the amp or the pre-amp? Integrated would be a way to go within your budget. But if you aspire to own separates and possibly extend your budget to $1049.00, I would look at Schitt Audio's Vidar amp and Saga preamp. | |
| Current speaker threads are boring +1, nonoise. | |
| The MP3 is finally...dead! "The lesson seems to be, simply, that our media will always be as exactly imperfect as we are"No pun intended :-) | |
| Finally!! a mid priced (affordable) MQA DAC @aberyclark,Thanks for sharing. I have been looking forward to inexpensive MQA DAC's. Looks like Sumiko is the US distributor of Project Line in US. http://www.sumikoaudio.net510 843 4500 | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD @toetapaudio,Thanks for sharing the info. I would be interested in Mola Mola stand alone DAC only if it has MQA decoding on board. | |
| AURALiC Aries price reduction +1 Aurender N100H. Top notch sound / build quality and best app, period. | |
| SOtM dCBL-CAT7 LAN Cable @mikeg I just checked site and don't see a price increase on dCBL-CAT7. Did you get a pop up for 10% discount? | |
| power for mc452 and c2600 ei001h,While I have not compared your list of powerstrips with Isotek directly, my recommendation was based on various demos at Audio shows. They would have been a obvious choice for my 2ch/HT system if I wasn't so heavily invested in Nordost QRT ... | |
| power for mc452 and c2600 @ei001h,I would highly recommend evo3-Sirius. It's very neutral and doesn't limit dynamics. It will be a ideal match for McIntosh components which are very clean and natural sounding components.I believe you can try one in your system risk free fr... | |
| Rowland versus ARC @serious7,That's quite a interesting setup you have, btw great system. I bet your system sounds phenomenal. When i went from all solid state (Classe, Krell) to all tube ARC setup, I was in same dilemma with my power hungry monsters - B&W 800D2... | |
| DAC Regenerator and Reclocking Devices "adding a USB to SPDIF converter to run AES/EBU between it and the DAC is not much different than adding the USB gizmos"Dave, one exception in your scenario; the Aurender USB Audio 2.0 to SPDIF ( COAX ) Converter does not require external PSU comp... | |
| DAC Regenerator and Reclocking Devices @sunseekerespana, I couldn't agree with you anymore. Some of my friends have jumped through hoops to get the best possible sound out of USB. Like yourself, I have gone the Ethernet ➡️ AES/EBU route and very happy with my setup. |
