| Blue sound Node 2 vs Lumin D1 Which color? ;) | |
| Blue sound Node 2 vs Lumin D1 Get the Bluesound someplace where they give you a good amount of time to see if you like it. Musicdirect comes to mind.That way you can see if you like digital streaming. You can always get a DAC later if you want. | |
| Blue sound Node 2 vs Lumin D1 +1 for Kclone advice.Lots of choices in DAC’s for that money.I love my Bluesound node2 beats using a computer for ease of use and its app, tough not perfect woks very well.Up against my Bifrost multibit the Bluesound holds its own fairly well. If ... | |
| Small living room speaker options.. Totem Arro? It's a different presentation. The Arros are better with pinpoint imaging. Focal chorus, the 714's that I have, are more full bodied and even across the frequency spectrum. You could get away without using a sub with the focals, they have 2 and la... | |
| Small living room speaker options.. Totem Arro? What is your budget? I’ve had the Arros and the Rainmakers.If you don’t mind used, I would look for a pair of Focal 1008be2 ( there’s a pair on another site) blows the Totem away. I got mine for just under 3k, and I’m constantly amazed by them. If... | |

Just point the Node to the folder on the NAS and it indexes the music and plays just fine. the only problem is album art. My collection is a mess that I made in iTunes and doesn't transfer wel... | |
| Time for Two Ways ! In my small room definitely 2-waysFocal Electra 1008be2My first expensive speaker and truly amazing. | |
| Music Streamer Quality +3 for the Bluesound node2. It's a really well designed unit. The remote works a treat. I've used it's analog out against the Schiit multibit Bifrost, and found it quite close. @williewonka What c7 plug did you use? I tried the Pangea 14se, and i... | |
| New or Used Speakers for Simaudio I-3 Integrated I had the Rainmakers, 11X16 room. I thought they were great, though a bit of a slump in the midrange, and the bass is bumped up to get that low.I was running them with either a Sansui AU-717 or a Yaqin 100b (KT-88 push pull tube).I decided to list... | |
| Cables for Focal 1008be2 I picked up some Supra 3.4s cables. Sounds pretty good so far. jus letting them burn in. I'll report back. | |
| Solid core Versus Stranded Speaker cables I have also noticed that the terminations that some of these manufacturers put on speaker cable really degrade the sound. I have found that, on some cable, chopping off the termination and stripping to bare wire improved the sound tremendously!!!.... | |
