| Sunfire Amp joule meter But isn’t it a weird that the meter stays in the same position when also off? Or did I interpret that incorrectly? I don’t remember my Cinema Grand doing that. | |
| Noob question about streaming . . . I have the AV7704 and it’s a solid HT preamp. I would definitely try the Wiim Pro and Tidal to determine whether it’s worth the difference. Personally, I typically utilize Spotify Connect from either my iPad or phone with this preamp and it sounds... | |
| Music Hall Maverick SACD Player repair I had a similar issues with my Maverick which has been sitting in the closet for I don’t know how many years. There may be an option down here in AZ, but I’m not too confident. Regardless, this post gave me motivation to try and get this component... | |
| Roon vs OS and Native Players - Impact on SQ? @mclinnguy Antipodes could definitely be included in that list. In all honesty, they were simply excluded since I’m not too familiar with their offerings, but I have heard wonderful things from owners on this forum. | |
| Roon vs OS and Native Players - Impact on SQ? It looks like certain Aurender models are now Roon Ready and can be enabled for use with video and written instructions here. I would be really curious to hear from the Aurender Roon users. Ready mode is a free upgrade available on all Intel-bas... | |
| Had anyone listened to Ken Fritz's system in person? @shkong78 you missed it. His son had created a post here on Audiogon in November. I can only imagine what it sounded like. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/ken-fritz-stereo-system-auction-is-live?highlight=Ken%2BFritz | |
| Are You a Swifty? You have to try new things all the time if you're really into music IMO, or you just silo yourself into a comfortable, but eventually boring and too safe little world. I stumbled upon an interesting article a few months back that may explain ... | |
| NAD C658 upgrade -> Auralic Altair G1.1,... ? Correct me if I’m wrong, but that conversion to US dollar would be around $3,251. It may help to know if you’d be open to the used market. I have no experience with Auralic and can’t comment on whether a G1.2 is planned. I had owned the NAD C658 ... | |
| Roon Aquisition: Will This Help Or Hamper? It’s been a couple of months since the acquisition. What are people’s thoughts so far? Obvious and not so obvious changes: - Nucleus Titan and Nucleus One - Interface seems a little bit snappier and responsive (at least for me) - Requesting fee... | |
| Are You a Swifty? she seems to be a generous and genuinely good-hearted human being who puts on a great concert and as far as I can tell deserves her success. If there were more people like her the world would be a much better place. Well said and completely ... | |
| Roon Build 1382 SQ I haven’t heard a difference, but I also don’t use DSP. Good stuff @wsrrsw. Going to try these settings over the weekend. | |
| Radical toe in once more I’ve been periodically playing with placement of my Tannoy Stirlings over the course of the past year and a half. Per their manual, radical toe-in is recommended. Historically I found the treble energy to be a little much while reducing the sounds... | |
| Stuff You Tried To Love Oh my goodness, I love tubes. I even want one of those cool tube clocks! For me, it’s the NAD C658 all-in-one (preamp, DAC, streamer, DIRAC). The feature set sounded incredible and it used BluOS which I was familiar with from the Node I previousl... | |
| 2024 Audio System Wish List Currently on the waitlist for a Decware ZRock3 which will be placed between DAC and integrated- hoping for arrival by April/May. I’m also really interested in the Fibbre USB Optical digital cable between my streamer and DAC - still trying to do my... | |
