| Questioning my Oppo Sonica dac? @erik_squires to update...i did just get a USB 2.0 cable and my sonica dac now displays 96 khz when playing hi res from Qobuz. Thanks for the feedback. | |
| Questioning my Oppo Sonica dac? @ fuzztone Thanks for the reply. Spotify and Quboz are about the same price with the Studio subscription. I clearly won’t need both though. I know the Spotify won’t improve any but I don’t mind it at all, I’m curious if my dac is possibly blocking... | |
| Adding streaming services to a streamer via usb @cdtd I just recently picked up an IFI Zen Streamer to use with my Oppo Sonica that I've been using for years as my streamer/dac. Was able to stream Spotify no issue. I just managed to connect Quboz today thru Mconnect hd to try hi res streaming. ... | |
| Second sub connection Thanks for the help. I will try your recommendation and just buy a single cable for the second sub and skip the splitters. Just as last bit of info. Can I take one of the 12 foot cables that I will have left after removing one from my current setu... | |
| Second sub connection Uberwaltz...sorry not to pick up on this right off but the y splitters I have would leave 4 open ends plugging one in each channel off the pre, how do we get a single cable going to each sub. Would running a single cable out of each of the preamp ... | |
| Second sub connection Thanks for the responses. I have an LFE on the new SVS but not on my older Quad. So would putting the y splitters on the sub end and running a single cable to each sub accomplish the same thing. I don’t need to feed a left and right channel to eac... | |
| Bi wire off 4 and 8 ohm taps. Thank you both for your feedback. | |
| Creating space between interconnects & keeping cables off the floor Thanks Al. On my retirement budget I have to make audio purchases stretch. | |
| Is it necessary to use the same cable brand and model for bi-wiring?? Somewhat on topic. I just went to a bi-amp setup with my VR 33's and read in a review that the internal cabling of the speaker was Analysis Plus 14 gauge. Since I need new wire to replace my current bi wire cable (Morrow sp-5), I was wondering abo... | |
| Creating space between interconnects & keeping cables off the floor I'm about to run cables of different length, 11' left channel 4' right, would this cause any concerns. Somewhat off topic but... | |
| Polarity between amps Thanks for the responses. I wanted to make sure nothing would be damaged with my experimentation. I didn't hear enough of a difference to feel it was material. Tubes are new for me so now I'll trying rolling them for a change.Dan | |
| Dialing in Fun Bigby...I'm thinking of getting reacquainted with vinyl after 25 years and just bid on a used td 235. What was your opinon of this table.Dan | |
| Any advantages to bi-wiring speakers vs. single Ldworet...I still have my Quad subwoofer but haven't tried hooking it up with the VR's but have been curious as of late (can always tweak). I haven't really noticed the need for any more bass with the jazz and rock I listen too, depends on the rec... | |
| Any advantages to bi-wiring speakers vs. single I have an Exposure 2010s integrated running the mid-highs and the matching power amp dedicated to the bass. They are both rated at 75 watts and seem more than adequate if I choose to push them. My first venture into decent 2 channel in more than 2... | |
| Any advantages to bi-wiring speakers vs. single I've had the VR 33's since 3/11 and opted for the bi-wire option so I could use them bi-amped. I really enjoy the speakers but now want to experiment with different wiring. Currently running the Speltz Anti Cables. I think the bass is definitely i... |
