| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer @chrisoshea I do have turntables in my main dedicated listening rooms aka main dedicated systems (see above post) but I don’t hava a turntable in my living room setup as it is my secondary system and is more for casual listening. | |
| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer I should have bought the Aurender streamer or Linn or Naim streamer for my living room setup since I don’t have any physical media player in this living room setup. How is the Aurender app? Pretty reliable? Or are you using Roon instead of the Aur... | |
| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer Couldn’t agree more. That’s why the majority of my listening is physical media discs : vinyl, CD, SACD, and reel-to-reel master audio tape. But I mainly stream Tidal and Qobuz in this living room setup since it is not my main primary dedicated lis... | |
| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer @yyzsantabarbara Hi there, Today I’ve just tried streaming the George Harrison’s 50th anniversary All Things Must Pass album particularly on that Hear Me Lord song on Qobuz Hi Res 192/24 and didn’t get audio dropout at all. Everything seems to ... | |
| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer Thank you all for all the responses. I did reboot my Lumin streamer and my internet network modem/router, I rebooted everything and now it seems to be doing fine so far but I need to give it another couple weeks and see how it goes. But so far no ... | |
| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer @erik_squires I highly doubt it’s my internet connection because I also stream Tidal MAX (Tidal Hi Res FLAC) up to 192/24 and is flawless and not a single audio dropout at all. Tidal MAX (Tidal Hi Res FLAC) streams at exact same resolutions (sam... | |
| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer @yyzsantabarbara The audio dropouts are intermittent and random, not on any particular track or album but it only occurs on Qobuz Hi Res material - especially 192/24 & sometimes on 96/24 too, but the CD quality streams are fine. The issue pe... | |
| CD Transport @leog2015 Out of all the things you listed above I would think the Teac one will be best since Teac and Esoteric make one of the best if not the best disc transports in the world within their price ranges respectively. I know for sure the Eso... | |
| McIntosh to Luxman? @paul8088 As for upgrade streamers/DAC from the Bluesound there are many countless options out there : Aurender, Lumin, Linn, Naim, Chord, Simaudio, PS Audio DS DAC with networked bridge ii, Cary Audio, Teac, Esoteric, DCS, and many others de... | |
| McIntosh to Luxman? @jrod68 You will need to upgrade your source component (your Bluesound streamer) to something better. Your Bluesound streamer is the bottleneck and is holding up your entire system setup IMO. As for Luxman vs Mac I would say it’s a matter o... | |

| All New ROTEL MICHI GEAR // State-Of-The-Art @stereo5 I thought I should say something here regarding the new Michi products. First of all, all new Michi products only bear Michi logo and you won’t see any Rotel name on them. And these new Michi products are designed and built on another dif... | |
| Cary Audio CD 306 SACD player (non Pro version) Seems like the laser needs replacement. Pretty common issue with an older disc player. I would contact Cary Audio and see what they have to say. | |
| All-in-one integrated, 10-15K range, class A/B only @essrand what are your speakers? | |
| Advice please. @newbie1963 If you want to improve bass performance in your room or in your current system setup the new B&W 702 S2 will not be good choice. These 702 S2 mainly emphasize on midrange and upper registers (highs) and sounded somewhat bright as t... |
