| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit The challenge one faces is manufacturing to scale. There is no shortage of interest in the MkIII, just not enough resources to make it work. When Roger conceived of this his goal was to find a way to make the RM-10 more affordable without sacrific... | |
| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit @enobenetto sorry but we never received your inquiry. We’ve sold a few of the kits and one of the builders has been taking his to some of the audio shows. The amp was in Las Vegas and Austin so far this year. Roger came up with the idea for the Mk... | |
| Need some help shipping speakers I recently shipped a pair of Quad ESL 57 speakers from NorCal to Chicago. The cost of crating/packing and shipping/insurance ranged from $1,500 to $2,000 and I checked several resources, including the one mentioned by @mofimadness. In the end a fr... | |
| Dipping my toes into EL84 tubes Even though we sell our own EL-84 kit amp, which we sometimes build for a customer at additional cost, I went ahead and ordered a Dynakit ST-35. Total cost will be just under $1000. Looks like a fun build as well. | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore Linn Kazoo is being retired I believe, it was recommended by Linn to download the Linn app which I did. I used the Linn app a few years ago and it worked fine with no gapless playback issues so I see no potential issues with it now. | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore @babyseaotter99 that is what I do too. As I mentioned JPlay works fine except I can't get it to play gapless with my G1 even thought I have it set to gapless for my device within the JPlay setting. You may or may not have the issue or need gapless... | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore While JPlay does work with my Auralic Aries G1 and I like the UI, gapless playback was not working. I enabled it on the app but for some reason with my G1 it still wouldn't work. So I went back to the Lightning app. | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore Download JPlay and give it a try. 14 day trial. I was using it with my Aries G1 for a bit. | |
| Spendor Classic 100 - An itch I want to scratch! I was a big Spendor fan back in the 90's when it was still owned by Spendor and Derek Hughes was still there. I still own a pair of Spendor 1/2e which I will never part with even though my reference speakers are Quad ESL 57. Recent Spendor designs... | |
| Apogee Scintilla’s: Buying advice and are they worth the hassle @rooze Having owned both ribbon planar and electrostatic speakers I can say they share a very similar sound. One may not be better than the other. It depends on the model of the speaker. Acoustat speakers can be very reliable, but you need to star... | |
| DDC Sound Improvements??? @mdalton I saw that thread but just scanned it. I will go back and take a closer look at it. I am inclined toward Volumio at the moment but, I have to say my previous experience with their app wasn't all that good. I use the Lightning app for the ... | |
| JPlay experts? — Innuos Stream1 is invisible! I have kind of been lurking here trying to learn a bit more about Jplay. I have an Auralic Aries G1 and run MinimServer on my NAS. Up until now I have used the Lightning iOS app pretty exclusively, although I did try Roon out a couple times, and a... | |
| DDC Sound Improvements??? But you do not have to spend more than $2k on a streamer to get state of the art performance - i.e., vanishingly low noise levels. ASR would be proud. Anyone else here buy this?!? Well I can buy into the statement, and I think @mdalton make... | |
| Sting and his Dagostino momentum preamplifier - very cool I like the shelving he has. | |
| Improving on the stream of a combined streamer dac @dsnyder0cnn Thanks for the information. I have been running MinimServer for years. I connect to my Auralic Aries G1 via wifi or LAN, then the Aries connects to either my Audio Note Kit or Lessloss DAC. If I move to this type of solution I would l... |
