| My Aurender N150 is stuck in repeat mode Have you tried shutting down and restarting the Aurender unit? Have you also quit out of Conductor completely and restarted it? | |
| Solid State Phono Stages I’m not repeating a non-sensical explanation, rather trying to simplify a complex topic. If it isn’t helpful or making sense for you, then you should either learn how to be curious and inquire for more explanation or do some investigation on your ... | |
| Speaker isolation - spikes on puck, springs, sorbothane I own Townshends for some speakers, but I am an Isoacoustics dealer and have used them largely under speakers and components for the last 7-8 years even before I started dealing them this year. Townshends are really great, in my experience, for r... | |
| Final Dac I don’t have experience with Playback Designs but admire their reputation. I have heard the other three and would say that the Mola Mola is on an opposite end of a spectrum compared to the MSB Discrete and Rockna Wavedream. The Mola Mola prides ... | |
| Borresen X3."Hi Fi" or High End as in natural realistic sound ? Previous Borresen owner here, of both the Z3 Cryo and 02. I‘m also sitting in the Audio Group Denmark room at Southwest Audio Fest as we speak listening to the Borresen X6 and have heard the X3 on multiple occasions. In my experience, Borresen is ... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages Also, not to make this thread about SR, but to provide you with further understanding of the functionality of the Tranquility Base Carbon - it does not block or absorb EMI, but it does generate a magnetic field designed to surround the component. ... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @lewm - I wasn’t calling you out, my apologies. I was more just referring to the previous replier saying that it’s sad that the thread ends with SR. That is a very closed-minded statement that is quite baseless. I had no issues with what you perso... | |
| Aurender AP20 Impressions @sro Unfortunately I don’t have experience owning Aavik gear, despite me having heard this stack with Borresen X series speakers at one of last year’s audio shows. I do have a high affinity for Aavik and Borresen and personally owned the Borresen ... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @gwgjr31 What I think is sad is that people take this tone with a brand when often they have no experience with it. The fact that I found value in an accessory that made a significantly positive improvement on my phono stage of choice is nothing b... | |
| You don't lack bass, you have too much treble Brightness isn’t just caused by the equation of the speaker’s frequency response to room size and dampening ratio as Erik mentions, but also due to other forms of noise in the chain. This could be found through: - Poor resonance control in the sp... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages @lewm Fair point that even as a dealer I may not fully understand what is happening scientifically to address the sonic impact from the Tranquility Base Carbon, but I will say this. It is an ACTIVE platform, not a vibration isolation platform. It ... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages It’s been a long time, and I’ve reverted my decision on my phono stage of choice and thought to update this thread in case anyone has interest or finds the information valuable. The last step I wrote about was selling my BMC MCCI Signature ULN ph... | |
| Aurender Conductor App Question @classic8 @lalitk pretty much summed it up, but there is a “Folder” menu item at the end of the top menu of the Conductor app. Clicking on it allows you to navigate the folder structure you set up. That said, while you can navigate your storage ... | |
| Differences in YouTube, Spotify, etc. @rickguild If you are looking to get into high end digital audio, you should subscribe to a streaming service that delivers audio in a lossless format. The two most common are Tidal and Qobuz. While I was subscribed to both, I have since slimmed m... | |
| It's your streamer, not your modem I’ll chime in to say that the streamer is incredibly important, but the technologies in the router, switch and Ethernet cables in my chain make a huge, audible improvement as well. Take it for what you will as I am an authorized Synergistic Resear... |
