| DDC or Better Streamer? I moved from the Bluesound node to the N150. It was a nice sonic improvement, the conductor app is very nice & the footprint is excellent. The N150 only has USB out. | |
| What are your opinions of DSP's for speakers I use a miniDSP for sub integration with my mains, with DSP only controlling my sub for 2 channel. I use full DSP for my 7.2.2 home theater system. | |

| matching your cartridge to your turntable Op, I think the P6 is a very nice choice. @secretguy Thanks… when we were young! I will check out fix my Dual. I used to live in Des Moines… would have been much easier. | |
| matching your cartridge to your turntable My first decent system in the early 70’s was a Dual 1229 with a Shure V15 type 2 improved playing through a Marantz 2270, Soundcraftman 2012A & Rectilinear 3’s. I thought it sounded glorious. I have sold everything (the Marantz for a very nic... | |
| Room treatment can be addictive @tcutter Thanks! My L shaped sectional is head high & actually runs along the windows then into the room. Only one woofer is above the couch (R11’s). I had thought about free standing panels… might give that a try. Follow up question. I put a ... | |
| Room treatment can be addictive I just added corner bass traps to my room. The transformation was outstanding with improved clarity throughout especially in the low end. My left & right reflection points in my room are problematic as to the right are a wall of 4 large window... | |
| Replacement/upgrade for Bluesound and Chord Mojo 2 streamer/external DAC combo Given your budget, I would absolutely support @soix recommendation of a low cost LPS for your N130 and an R2R DAC. | |
| Vinyl playback - lack of bass? Op, for my setup, my vinyl side (Hana ML > Aria) is slightly warmer, with slightly stronger bass than my digital side (Aurender > Qutest). I have a SimAudio amp & BHK pre with warm Brimar NOS tubes. I believe it is component and/or sett... | |
| Do I need upgraded power cables? OP, many recommended plugging your amp directly into the wall to not starve the amps draw when using a shared conditioner. Two things: 1. Most are high power amps, tubes and/or mono blocks. 2. Most have installed whole house surge protection, eli... | |
| Do I need upgraded power cables? One more thing, IMHO isolated banks for your analog & digital components is critical, unless you run two dedicated power lines & 2 separate power conditioners. When installing my 2400, I accidentally plugged my turntable into the bank I wa... | |
| Do I need upgraded power cables? Based upon the recommendations from @erik_squires (very knowledgeable), I recently purchased a Furman P-2400 AR (the 20A version of his above recommendation) and the Furman PSD 8D, with very good results. The 2400 provides voltage regulation, co... | |
| Traded Off my SLP-05 There is another thread discussing what component you would keep. It would be my BHK pre. Love it. | |
| AC Power @raysmtb1 Not an uncommon perspective. Interesting you don’t believe in power improvements as you have a nice system. You seem to believe in vibration isolation, but not power. I only know that the 2400 without question improved the overall sound ... | |
| AC Power define gathered. I would not coil the the remaining 7ft in a neat tight small diameter coil. Imo, a small coil would act as an inductor. @jea48 I pulled just enough out to plug it in. The coil is crammed between the 2400 & the LPS for my DAC.... |
