| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing @yyzsantabarbara I agree with creativepart and oddiofyl, that would be really unwise of you if you were to take out a 401k loan ;) | |
| Audio people you've had contact with that proved to be good people. @stuartk +1 Rob Fritz seems genuinely nice. I’d probably purchase more of his cables - even if they didn’t sound nice (they sound great btw), simply out of principle of him seeming to be a solid guy. | |
| Ethernet connection for best sound quality @joes44 out of curiosity have you selected a streamer and DAC yet? Or still in the research phase of making a selection? | |
| Anybody find themselves revisiting old threads? @jolywins I don’t think there is an “archived” threads section within the forum. When I’m looking for older threads on a certain topic I usually use the search function and the “sort by date” and “sort by title only” functions. | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing Wow, this has been an incredibly informative thread. I also used a Sonore OpticalRendu for streaming to USB via fibre. The 2 best DACs I have had are the Yggi+ Less is More and the modded GAN1. The Lumin X1 is also up there but I liked the Y... | |
| Streamer upgrade - best path forward OP, thank you for all of the input and keeping us informed - please keep on doing so, especially in regards to the external clock and D/D convertor for running I2S into the R26. From what it looks like, this is how you have everything set up with ... | |
| Anyone buy one yet? Thoughts? @curiousjim my mistake over here - definitely didn't realize that. Regardless, thanks for correcting on this thread. | |
| Anyone buy one yet? Thoughts? @oddiofyl $1349 appears to be the price. From the YT video definitely managing expectations and being transparent that this streamer isn’t for everyone - needing to be hardwired, no connect features yet for Spotify and Tidal. Maybe this will be t... | |
| Animals and audiophiles I agree. You think there would be more research out there. Definitely surprising. Appreciate the compliment and glad to hear that your dog survived - I would imagine that was traumatizing. The credenza was purchased maybe 15 years ago. Prices have... | |
| Animals and audiophiles We have three rescue dogs as well, in addition to a coyote problem that backs up to a mountain/city park. Two of the three are Chihuahua mixes that have exceptional hearing in the dog world. I think I see your dilemma; the dogs have been home a... | |
| Affordable GaN FET amp from Peachtree Audio @yyzsantabarbara great information from your response - thank you! The GAN1 definitely looks interesting as well. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @doyle3433 oh man greatly appreciate the compliment. I remember repeatedly checking out your systems with the Volti Razz and Heresy’s- that’s right up my alley. Ditto on all accounts (dog for cat). | |
| Affordable GaN FET amp from Peachtree Audio I should be able to adjust volume on ROON by setting the OpticalRendu’s ROON END POINT settings to DEVICE VOLUME from FIXED. I will report back here if it works. There is some concern by 1 of the Sonore principles that this may not work. Thoug... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @kota1 thanks a bunch. I always thought cj’s gold champagne color was classy - same with Shindo’s color scheme with their green exterior and gold knobs. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? Regardless of where this thread went, there’s been 40 + 1 additional systems added to the Virtual Systems page since OP started the thread - that’s pretty good IMO. Not all of these additions can be attributed to this thread, but still. I definit... |
