| Let's Talk DAC's I tried both of the Denafrips mentioned but bought a Pure Audio Lotus DAC 5 as it was clearly superior. Even the Denafrips distributor indicated I would have to go to the Terminator to get the equivalent SQ | |
| Auralic Aries to Roon Not possible - PC in the office Aries in the media room. | |
| Auralic Aries to Roon My computer is the Roon core and iPhone the controller. The core just won't recognise the Aries. It recognises my phone and a borrowed Zen Stream . | |
| Mental and auditory acuity, and aging I'm 83 and still hear quite well but obviously not as well as 30 years ago and am still mentally sharp and in good health. But here's the kicker for the past 15 years I have been single and as a result have had the worst dietary habits, very few v... | |
| Cables for Aurender N150 Conductor 4 still can't list classical albums logically. | |
| WHY CABLES MATTER! OMG not again! | |
| Streamer Selection - Thoughts Requested Please! I have an Aurender N150 and am looking to replace it, not because of the SQ which is very good but because of the Conductor app. The app seems to have been designed around Tidal because using Qobuz I am unable to sort albums saved to my library in... | |

My guess is that... | |
| tube bias conundrum @jjss49 OK I know Chinese junk, poor quality control is the obvious reason the tubes won't bias. However it doesn't explain why the tubes sound good and getting better with 50 hours of burn in now. I would appreciate some informed opinion why thi... | |
| Recommendation Request for Tube Power Amplifier The Rogue Stereo 100 amp would do the job perfectly with 100 wpc and the choice of triode or ultralinear mode. I have a Rogue Stereo 90 in which I am currently using Tung Sol KT120 tubes (very hard to get at present), the same as the Stereo100, a... | |
| What's Up? Not unusual on this forum to get a multitude of answers to questions never posed. | |
| Simple question, probably stupid Thank you to all those who read, understood and responded to my simple question and to all those who chose to answer a completely different question ie do tubes need to be burnt in? With regard to that latter issue, as it has been raised, I might ... | |
| Amplifier considerations, PrmaLuna EVO 400 versus ARC Reference 160 S. Is ARC worth it? 18HZ - 30KHZ frequency response. Wow what speakers are they? |
