| What do the arrows mean on my cable? Just shows what nice guys we all are. | |
| What do the arrows mean on my cable? Use XLR's and you'll never have a problem wondering which end is up :-) | |
| Class D for Repatriated Merlin TSM MMI Rich - please tell us what you think. The heat from my AS OTL's during the summer at my beach house can be a little too much sometimes. I may be picking up the AS Class D's myself very soon 😎 | |
| Class D for Repatriated Merlin TSM MMI Haven't heard them myself, but I've been told from a very reliable source that the new Atma-Sphere Class D amps sound like their OTL tube amps. I have 2 pairs of TSM's myself and use AS on one of them. If in fact their Class D amps do sound like... | |
| Streamer Upgrade Wow very honest and refreshing post. Thank you. | |
| Power cords can make a tremendous difference in Digital Couldn't agree more. But I think it safe to say that PC's make a tremendous difference period. | |
| conrad johnson CAV45, CA200,... "So I should expect something like a PV14 + MF2275 to sound better than a CA150?" Better I doubt it. A little different yes. I ran the PR 16 with the PR12's for quite a while. Also ran the PR 16 with a 2250. Went to the CA200 after that. Lost v... | |
| B.S. Node 2i brick (yet another one) @doug1234 - hope everyone knows I was just being facetious. Should have used a 😀 | |
| Are Expensive Balanced Interconnects Necessary? On a more serious note, using a Cardas Clear XLR vs. Mogomi XLR from my Atma-sphere pre to my Atma amp both of which meet the AES48 standard, I hear NO difference. When using the same cables from my Denafrips DAC (don't know if Denafripts meets... | |
| Are Expensive Balanced Interconnects Necessary? I have two pairs of balanced cables. One pair was pretty expensive. Actually now that I think about it was real expensive. It definitely sounds better than the other cheaper one. That is until I switch positions of the cables. Then it doesn't... | |
| B.S. Node 2i brick (yet another one) Hate to see anyone have problems but never read such a long thread for 600 bucks. Hopefully you get it sorted out. | |
| Node2i to Aurender N100SC…WoW! @dhite71 - i know what you mean about digital not being pleasing sometimes. I've been a tube and vinyl guy for more than 50yrs. But with the improvements in digital in just the last few years I guess my ears are becoming more foregiving. Or ev... | |
| Node2i to Aurender N100SC…WoW! @dhite71 - so at first you were impressed but then not. This is very discouraging as I was ready to upgrade my Node with the N100SC. Lost the bid so now I guess I'm happy. I too use vinyl as my primary source. Pretty good setup too. But I am... | |
| Has Anyone Compared the DAC On a Bluesound NODE 3rd Gen to a Separate DAC? @ram85 Been there done that. ARES II will provide a significant upgrade to the Node's built-in DAC. Only problem, it's just the starting point to the next DAC upgrade and the one after that :-) At least is was for me. | |
| Has Anyone Compared the DAC On a Bluesound NODE 3rd Gen to a Separate DAC? "But I would guess that the limitations on my room and other equipment would make a high end DAC a waste of money, like putting a Ferrari engine in a Subaru. Nice, but they don’t match." Poor analogy in this case. Based on your existing room an... |
