| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? @cakyolGreat explaination! thanks and appreciate it! now I understand 1 step more! | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? @twoleftears ooh thanks! i always thought the gain is related to the power output! I guess you are right its different! was thinking if the power output is how much power you need to amplify the gain, and if the gain is higher, the final sound pre... | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? @ghdprentice thanks for the reply! yeah agreed about the 2 step up approach! that's why I'm saving up for a amp upgrade! sadly they are so expensive!haha will check out your audio reserach! my PL is an integrated with 8 tubes, so outputs 70W. but ... | |
| Melco N100 vs Sonore opticalrendu @yyzsantabarbara Thanks for the clarification! :) yepp will definitely do more reading. What LPS are you using with the opticalrendu? The bundled one from sonore? | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? @jjss49 Thanks! | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? @dweller HiI dont think so. From what I understand the dac must be able to be fully balanced to produce a proper 4v output, and the integrated amp must be fully balanced as well to accept the 4v output. If you connect a 4v input to a 2v only rca i... | |
| Melco N100 vs Sonore opticalrendu hi @yyzsantabarbara thanks for sharing!So does the noise/jitter from the dell server matter at all? Can I use a NAS drive with like synology to store my music and the opticalrendu to stream tidal/qobuz?Or do I still need to get a proper music serv... | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? hi @gregm Oh I see. Thanks for your reply! I'm still new in this hobby.Thanks!RegardsBen | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? @ghdprentice thanks for your reply! yeah thinking of going SET from my current amp haha. like you I completely believe in tubes! love their magical/musical kind of presentation that imparts a soul into music.using a primaluna EL34 x8 tubes, means ... | |
| Lumin U1 vs. Sonore SE hi @pgaulke90 can I ask if you have gotten your Signature rendu and how does it sound?what do you connect it to (front end)? do you need a music server or just a NAS drive or ??sorry am no good at digital/tech stuff :pRegardsBen | |
| Wanting to narrow the field for compatible speakers HiIn your budget I would consider kef blades, magnepan 20.7 or 30.7, avantgardes or acapella horn speakers. Still a young audiophile, yet to push the boundaries to discover all that is possible, but from what I know these are good stuff!RegardsBen | |
| Streamer upgrade Have heard of the auralic aries g2.1 being really end game! Other options I guess would be innuos zenith mk3 with a phoenix reclocker? Still exploring with streamers, just my 2 cents! |
