| What is your favorite budget streamer? @deep_333 Only the Wiim pro has aynchronous USB out I believe you mean the Wiim Ultra. My Wiim Pro+ does not have a USB output. It is also galvanically isolated, just like the iFi Zen Stream. The main difference is that it supports only up to 2... | |
| Placing Instrument Separation of Large Ensembles in Recordings Achieving instrument separation in recordings of large symphony orchestral performances requires a combination of thoughtful microphone placement and effective mixing techniques. This process will involve understanding how different instruments in... | |
| What is your favorite budget streamer? Had Wiim Pro Plus and MXN10 (refurb. $315). SQ wise, MXN10 > Wiim Ultra (per Darko) = Wiim Pro Plus. | |

| Does the Cambridge CXN100 sound the same as the MXN10 Unless you don’t have an iPhone or iPad, AirPlay generally offers better sound quality than Bluetooth. Even if you don’t use Apple devices, why use Bluetooth when Wi-Fi is an option? I haven’t used Bluetooth with my setup, so I haven’t encountered... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? Some models may be customized by the manufacturer to the destination voltage. If you intend to buy one from this vendor, you could make a request. PM me to get the company information if you can not find it. | |
| D amps +1 @atmasphere @hgeifman May I know which specific vendor's Hypex-based amp you or your friends have purchased from? Knowing the specific Hypex-based amp vendor might be necessary, as different vendors often implement subtle design choices that... | |
| Does the Cambridge CXN100 sound the same as the MXN10 Perception of sound is, as always, subjective. However, to describe the sound from the Wiim, particularly the Wiim Pro Plus, as "muffled" is something with which I will respectfully disagree. The Wiim Pro Plus has comparably high SINAD and THD mea... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? It’s interesting that the one who brought up the 'distracting' pricing issue was the OP himself, right from the very beginning. Anyway, I agree with @westcoastaudiophile that the A48 should not be considered entry-level compared to the Class A Ax... | |
| Does the Cambridge CXN100 sound the same as the MXN10 The Wiim streamer does offer some fantastic flexibility! The line-in and optical inputs make it versatile enough for adding external sources like a tuner / vinyl setup, and a CD player. The subwoofer connection is also possible through the pre-out... | |
| Does the Cambridge CXN100 sound the same as the MXN10 You might have amp already but if you don’t and the form factor is the desire in the garage, I highly recommend this combination (Wiim Pro plus + Fosi v3) even I said mxn10 sound ’better’ than wiim. In isolation, the combo renders as wide SS, sati... | |

| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? Japanese domestic models typically come with a fixed voltage setting specifically for the Japanese market, which is 100V AC. These models often lack the multi-tap voltage options (100/117/220/240V AC) found in international versions. For those you... | |
| Accuphase class A amps - going up the food chain from an A-48 to an A-80 or A-300? You could actually buy a brand-new Accuphase Japanese model with a step-down transformer here in US with limited warranty and it can indeed be a cost-effective option (less than 50% listed price here). However, there is some concern regarding the ... | |
| D amps @hgeifman they lacked the subtly, feeling, resolution, sparkle, air and imaging of my MusicalFidelity class AB amps that replaced them. Thanks for sharing your experience with Hypex. I’ve been curious about it for a while. People say Purif... |
