| End Game Dac reccomendations Hello @tp802 , Nice system. With the tubes you already have, I would consider a non tube SS DAC. For me, this is the Master Fidelity Nadac C and Nadac D. I am all SS, and this DAC is the most lifelike and musical, without distortion, that I hav... | |
| Clicking Popping on some tracts thru AKM 32bit/DSD64 Amanero Chipset DAC I have had that issue with certain streaming software..do tell what is your streamer and software? or are they local files?? | |
| Bricasti Happiness Yes @jaybe . I just was not sure if it streamed with Qobuz Connect, in case you don't like the Aurender App. And sure, it does not need a 'network card' as it is a network streamer. My main point was the world of streaming is worth exploring, a... | |
| Audio snobbery +1 @willywonka | |
| Audio snobbery Reviews are for general information. And, ever notice they are always positive in some sense? But what does this have to do with snobbery? The continued ridicule of high end systems and their owners is fatiguing . Just drive down the road, and... | |
| Bricasti Happiness Hello @jaybe nice DAC and streamer. You can use Qobuz connect on the Aurender (I think) and maybe the Bricasti card and for pennies a day listen to all sorts of compatible music with your tastes. Even if you choose to then purchase the LP or dig... | |
| Bookshelf speaker recommendations Hello @dvdgreco Funny, that was my search parameters for a vaca cabin in Ontario. I picked up a Moon 340i dpxi and wanted to upgrade a pair of old speakers. I held out for a while, and scored a pair of Proac D2 $900 with a corner cabinet d... | |

| Maybe it IS all in the DAC chips Cheap DACs are a dime a dozen. It is the implementation that matters, as with all components. You get what you pay for , if you really want a good one. | |
| Dynaudio Confidence Alternatives Find a good used deal on a pair of Confidence 20's! Get what you want and don't worry about it. Speakers last. I have had mine for about a year and love them. Paid about 7k in perfect shape with stands. 'Collectors item!'. | |
| Dynaudio Confidence serie Hi @gabriel123 , I hear so many good things about Moon. I actually own a 340i dpx at a cabin in Ontario, driving a pair of Spendor bookshelf speakers. Totally impressed. But the new stuff is supposed to be really nice. | |
| Dynaudio Confidence serie Congratulations @8th-note ! Beautiful speakers. Also great review of the speakers you auditioned, and spot on with my opinions as I have done similar listening. Thanks. Question: what electronics are you using? I love my Audionet Max amps p... | |
| Qobuz still messed up Sorry to hear that @speedthrills . What are you running Roon Core on? I formerly had big issues with a Roon Nucleus. Having moved on to better Core devices, roon is finally rock solid. | |
| Talk to me about CAT 6 in wall cable Thanks @germay Nice summary. I don't know why anyone would not want to use a 'better' cable for audio. We (I) are always looking for improvements in our sound. EZ to do once, hard to replace. |
