| Digital Speaker Balance Control with ROON Here is another tip. I have 3 streamers in the house for 3 DACs. There are 2 in the office and one of those streamers has the STEREO SETUP filter enabled. As of today, my headphone streamer does not have the STEREO SETUP enabled, since it is not ... | |
| Digital Speaker Balance Control with ROON I have been using the Stereo Setup feature now for a couple of days and I must say this is a fantastic feature. It sounds way better than doing the same thing in the analog domain with my Benchmark HPA4 preamp. Only issue is that I get this benefi... | |
| Benchmark DAC2 HGC vs DAC3 HGC or?? Rory Rail at Benchmark said they sound the same. I have had both, still have the DAC3B, and I think they sounded the same. Though I never had them at the same time. The DAC3B is a little hot on top. It works nicely with a tube headphone amp I hav... | |
| Nagra streamer in Munich 2024 That Nagra link on the back of that streamer is the same proprietary PLINK connection from Playback Designs. I have the prior version that will work with the latest PBD DACs. I actually had mine up for sale for $2k but changed my mind and decided ... | |
| Digital Speaker Balance Control with ROON I thought you needed to measure the room for the dB. Whatever, the case I am so impressed with this feature. I was considering selling the Holo Serene to get another Benchmark HPA4 preamp. However, now the need to do that is gone. In the future, ... | |
| Schitt Yggdrasil More is Better I am into the OG with about 25 hours, and I must say that I am extremely happily with how it sounds. It is more detailed than the LIM so that was my main issue with my Livingroom system. However, it may also have a wider soundstage than the LIM. T... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Doug at CODA told me that bridging 2 S5.5's is not a good way to use them. I was wondering if you could use 2 bridged S5.5's instead of a CODA #16. The standard gremlins that apply to bridging a 2-channel stereo amp also applies to the S5.5. BTW ... | |
| Back to the DAC Mitch is from Vancouver area, and he remotely did genius level work on my room in California. We needed to fix my Thiel CS3.7 first. I could hear 1 issue, but he identified so many others. I tried to do the DSP myself after starting to read his b... | |
| Back to the DAC BTW - if one is interested in treatments without the treatments take a look at Mitch Barnetts offering for Convolution filters. Not sure if Aurrender supports it. Roon and JRiver support it. Digital Room Calibration Services, Convolver, Headphone... | |
| Back to the DAC I agree that that source is the most important. However, when it comes to DACs I also feel it is the least important. That is because for my money the laws of diminishing returns apply to DACs more than most components. I have a great local FM ... | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers A speaker that is close to the Pendragons at that cost would be a Magnepan LRS+. | |
| Cool running, low powered power amp @lanx0003 The KRELL Duo 175XD was used on my Thiel CS3.7 and also my RAAL SR1a earphone using the older amp interface box. Interestingly, the SR1a drew more power out of the amp. I knew this because when I used the CODA #8 in place of the KRELL I ... | |
| Back to the DAC I see you have a CODA #8 and a CODA preamp. Well, I can help there since I owned the latest CODA #8 and the CODA 07x. I no longer have those 2 since I upgraded to the CODA #16 and the Holo Serene preamp. This is a lot better than the #8 and the 07... | |
| Back to the DAC I got my Schiit Yggi+ OG today and burning it in my office system. First with the Leafs-Bruins hockey game and now music. It likely needs a bit of time before it shines. However, it does sound rather good so far. I found this review today, and ... | |
