| Tone of Shindo Had Aurieges Line... was bought from Audiogon because of all the huge hype and quickly sold-not transparent enough and with greatly overriped bass. It was great relief returning to real good preamp(DIY from gold hands of my dear friend). | |
| To Roon or not I have Melco N100 with their S100 switch and Chord TT2/M-Scaler. BubbleUPNP in my system with Tidal sounds much better than Roon... Roon nucleus is on speedy Windows PC,no DSP and volume control, network is 100Mbit. | |
| Is a Chord Qutest Dac my best option Qutest is excellent dac. The only weak point is flimsy 5v power input receptance. You have to be very careful not to damage it. | |

| Bluesound Node 2i vs Upscale streamers Had Bluesound 2i to Chord M-Scaler/Qutest DAC. Not bad.Changed to Melco N100/TeddyPardo LPS/Curious USB cable.Betters my EMT948 turntable. | |

I am analogue guy and Chord is first and only digital that makes music to my ears.I learn here it measures excellent too. Seems Robert Watts really knows his stuff ...Owned one very popular Ch... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Amazon and LPGEAR. LPGEAR has Jico SAS N97HE stylus for M97XE cart. It's extremely good and you get even better performance-much better tracking,detail,timbre and ability to play cleanly even damaged 2ndhand records. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I use 100k input impedance tubed phonostage with Shure M97XE and result is very good. My front-end is Linn LP12 with Naim Aro/Armageddon. I used MC's for years but now have no urge to change Shure at all. Match to Aro is exellent. I have no capaci... |
