| Got Innuous, now a DAC I am a couple of clicks above with my Pulsar and Terminator Plus but I can tell you these two makers sound very good together. If you do go Denafrips don’t use Ali Express, no warranty. You can still stay under $2k with the Pontus 15th through a... | |
| Bluesound Node versions SQ An older Node with a LPS combined with the Qutest is an excellent way to get quality sound on a budget imo. That is of course assuming you like the sound of a Qutest. It was one combo of many that I have tried. I also tried both the LHY and Pardo ... | |
| No response from Aurender customer support I found Aurender support to be hit or miss so don’t feel alone. Never did get a response through the app so I would email directly. With direct emails responses would normally come in a couple of days. | |
| PSVANE Mfg Co replaced my older 6SN7 CV-181 TII tubes @decooney no these did not come from the Psvane factory store. I believe the reseller on Amazon was Hi Spot or something similar. It’s a Chinese reseller. Replacements are due to arrive next month, but maybe they’ll arrive early like the first ... | |
| PSVANE Mfg Co replaced my older 6SN7 CV-181 TII tubes @decooney thanks for sharing. Nothing to do with this thread but after reading through the previous (lengthly) thread you mentioned with the Psvane Rep. it prompted me to try some Art Series 12au7. They were purchased through Amazon from a selle... | |
| Fiber or Eithenet @hollandw I agree Cardas is a good company to deal with and generally makes quality products. Very unusual to have something from Cardas poop out twice. I’m sure they’ll stand behind it. | |
| Fiber or Eithenet @chipcalzone thanks for sharing Inakustik. Will have to check them out. | |
| Fiber or Eithenet I too use the Lan Ipurifier Pro between my router and streamer. It makes a nice improvement for not a lot of money. I use the IFI Silent Power with mine. Currently running Supra Ethernet cable both before and after the Lan Pro. Thinking about ... | |
| Cardas Clear Speaker Cables? Agree with @decooney except using JJ tubes 😎. Quite frankly, never used a JJ tube that I liked. They’re cheap and coupled with the fact that your amp needs a bunch of ‘em you’ll be tempted. I just replaced a set of reissue Mullard EL34 with Genale... | |
| Cardas Clear Speaker Cables? Depends how much bite or incisiveness you want as to whether tube type or speaker cables will get you there. If you’re looking for the CJ amp to sound more like the Gryphon I don’t think you’ll get there with either. The Mullard EL 34 are warmer a... | |
| Sony hap zies and Denafrips users….need help I don’t believe your Sony player has usb out, does it? The usb is for adding storage. | |
| DAC for Aurender N200 The Terminator 15th or TPlus and the N200 make a very nice combo as already mentioned a few times. Not a bad value for us crazy’s either 🤪. I run mine with USB (no DDC to take advantage of I2s), but I’m thinking of jumping ship and going with an ... | |
| Streamer Comparison and Suggestions @mitch2 some recent developments that you may or may not be aware of regarding the Pulsar since this thread ended a year ago. In addition to only USB output on the Pulsar, Innuos now has a PhoenixI2S Lite Board and SPDIF Board available as option... | |
| Why I Sold My Aurender N200 @audphile1 will do, but the N200 is at my shore house so soonest I would probably have an opportunity to try will be during the summer. | |
| Why I Sold My Aurender N200 I use the IFI LAN iPurifier Pro that you’re wondering about above with my Aurender N150. Also use the IFI Silent Power (additional $70) instead of the supplied USB adaptor. Both help to lower the noise floor and improve staging and imaging. I have... |
