| ??? All In One CD Ripper - SACD Rip/Playback - Streamer ??? Melco N 100. It will store (2TB) ripped files, play them back, and plays Tidal and Qobuz.. It doesn’t have a DAC but the original post doesn’t indicate that you need one. Mine was around $2K several years ago. It doesn’t have an included rip... | |
| How Many Times Do You Have To Listen To Understand A Piece Of Music? There are many composers that people I respect tell me that I ‘have” to get. Schoenberg and his school are the most frequently cited. So after years of trying I finally understand the music, but I still don’t much care for it | |
| Why Do ~You~ Still Play CDs? @loomisjohnson very well said | |

| Fiber is Coming to my neighborhood @akg_ca You are laying the blame for dropouts on budget streamers, but the OP doesn’t currently own a streamer. In fact he is asking for recommendations on streamers. Therefore his current internet dropouts are either due to his computer or... | |
| Is the microwave the perfect model for audio marketting? My mother in law died last summer aged 92. Last XMass her children got together and purchased for her an LG TV because her current one had died, and she spent a considerable amount of time in her dotage watching programs like The Crown. Several of... | |
| Streamers and software @daledeee1 You say that you are looking for a streamer. Being pedantic, you already have a streamer, the Node. What you are looking for is a seamless use of the software package for Qobuz. I had Qobuz and the Node several years ago. They wor... | |
| ??? New Streaming Service??? What Do I Get??? Just out of curiosity how much do you save monthly with the veterans discount? | |
| It Was Twenty Years Ago Today! I rely on memory, which is increasingly unreliable. I find that I now bore people with long rambling and increasingly inaccurate histories of my early concert going experiences. At least back in the day I would have bored them with accurate reca... | |
| Amplification of classical soloists in concert performances ? I’ve seen it with Classical Guitar/Lute. Not elsewhere | |
| The end of physical media is neigh I’ve been trying to decide about buying a Magnetar UDP 900 and therefore Googling reviews, etc. The LG article cited by Eric popped into my Google feed yesterday and I just thought that I was being fed the usual algorithm feed, but surprised to s... | |
| Anyone take Tepezza? I’m a recently retired Primary Care Physician. I don’t have experience with the drug. I can say that if it really caused a significant-like one in 5000 chance- of causing permanent hearing loss it wouldn’t have been released. You have to real... | |
| Do I Really Need a Dedicated Streamer? OP you don’t really need a streamer. As I mentioned up thread streamers are just networking computers that are optimized for playing audio files. They also look like audio components and not like PCs. They tend to dispese with the OS that P... | |
| Streamer and DDC (I need AES/SpDif output) I loved FireWire and regret that it didn’t catch on. I almost bought your Weiss but instead bought a pro DAC for about 1/3 the price. It’s on a shelf in the basement as the lack of FireWire sources rendered it obsolete. | |
| Streamer question I use Cambridge Audio CXN 100. Mainly I listen to my own ripped CDs from my NAS. I also use the AirPlay and Chromecast functions to stream from my streaming services (Apple Music and Pristine Classical) but the CA will handle both Tidal and Qobuz ... |
