| My Bluesound Vault 2 died. Where to next? To anyone interested, here’s a link to the caps I purchased https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Panasonic/EEU-FM1A102B?qs=S7VFkBl86AoP30i6tZz79w%3D%3D&countryCode=US¤cyCode=USD | |
| My Bluesound Vault 2 died. Where to next? Can’t tell if this is a parody post, but the whole point was to upend accepted wisdom. This guy is a professional, has likely heard more equipment than any of us, yet still uses the Bluesound. One room was GIP Laboratory speakers powered by Mact... | |
| My Bluesound Vault 2 died. Where to next? FYI I stopped into my favorite hi fi dealer the other day to find he’s feeding megabuck Weiss and Chord DACs with Bluesound streams, in one room, it’s a quarter million dollar system if not more, and he’s really happy with it. Certainly sounded g... | |
| My Bluesound Vault 2 died. Where to next? My brother-in-law came through! He replaced 7 power supply caps and we are back up and running. A warning, the interior layout of theVault ia very different from the Node, which is the unit featured in all the repair how-to videos on youtube, bu... | |
| Toslink or Coaxial from Bluesound Vault 2 to external DAC? Ended up going with Audience Au24E spdif and it's great. Thanks! | |
| Power Cable for PS Audio Stellar Phono Stage Ended up buying the AudioQuest Tornado Source Power Cord. It works really well! | |
| Power Cable for Line Magnetic LM518 IA -- 22 Watt SET Ended up purchasing Furutech DPS 4.1 with the FI-50 NCF connectors. Enjoying it so far! | |
| My Bluesound Vault 2 died. Where to next? I'm going to try to fix the unit. Purchased recommended Panasonic power supply caps and my brother in law will install for me. Fingers crossed. If it doesn't work, then at least I've given it a shot and can then buy a new toy. | |
| My Bluesound Vault 2 died. Where to next? I tried the reset and it didn’t work. Steady Red Death. I posted budget in the original post. Under $3k and preferably under $2k if possible. I’d really prefer spdif output since Mytek DAC doesn’t have USB input— that seems to eliminate Aurend... | |
| How would an interconnect that seems intact in every way stop working, and how to fix? Thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. I called Audience and without any hesitation or questions asked they told me to ship them both cables and they'd repair under warranty. That's the kind of company I want to deal with. I'll be looking... | |
| What's the best bang for my bucks on RP6 upgrade? Thanks for the responses all. I have really enjoyed my RP6, so I guess I could be said to enjoy the Rega "House Sound," but honestly haven't listened to a lot of analog rigs. If I'd be willing to upgrade to the Planar 8, what other turntables ar... | |
| Power Cable for PS Audio Stellar Phono Stage glennewdick, from what I'm reading on the PS Audio site, they no longer manufacture power cables and only list Audioquest cables in their cables products section. I was shocked. Maybe I'm just not finding their own cable offerings? | |
| Power Cable for PS Audio Stellar Phono Stage Thanks Lak. Is this a brand you've used with the PS Audio Stellar Phono? What makes it especially suited to this application? | |
| Speaker for Line Magnetic LM 518IA in Large Room Update now that I've moved into the new apartment:It became clear I needed to get in the new space before I could pick a new speaker. I've also listened to the Devore Orangutans and they're not for me, both their sound and their size. I really n... | |
| Help me choose a speaker match for my Line Magnetic 805ia tube amp under $10K RIAA thanks very much for that link! It really is a useful comparison, and one that cements my notion that I need to bring my own LM 518 to audition my next pair of speakers rather than relying only on the LM 805 as proxy for my amp. |
