| Streaming - getting set up I agree with joss. I started out with an Aurender N100 to dip my toe in the water so to speak. I liked it so much I purchased an Aurender N 20. I chose Aurender because I liked the Conductor interface. The software interface will be a huge ... | |

| MSB Discrete DAC To Premier Upgrade My Discrete had a Premier power supply. I did not trade it in. I sold it outright after purchasing a used Premier. | |
| MSB Discrete DAC To Premier Upgrade I have made the jump. The discrete DAC is very good. But when you put it side by side with the Premier. The Premier is effortless and throws a wider and deeper soundstage and has better instrument separation as well as dynamic shading. The Pre... | |

| My SACD Transport feeds so much better signal to my DAC compared with streaming end... I have to concur with Ghdprenice. I purchased an older N100 to try streaming with an Aurender. I can honestly say the sound exceeded my expectations. I no longer am interested in physical media. The streamer is all that I want to listen to for... | |

| Weiss 501 DAC Question Looks like mute is engaged. Have you tried unplugging the unit? My PS Audio DAC would need to be rebooted after storms or electrical surges. | |
