| Questions on PC audio calibration Some server-based software apps allow you to invoke "loudness", as it used to be called, by playing with tone controls. I use Foobar for managing digital files but not as a player. Many plug-ins available for Foobar. If you do a search you may fi... | |
| Music Server Advice I can't advise between your options but can comment on the Aurenders. I went from a home-built server with a lot of top-end components to an N10 and the N10 blew the server away. But the app. It's terrible (others will argue). Aurender is not res... | |
| Dummy Speaker Load @ieales Thanks for your input lol. | |
| CD TRANSPORT THAT MAKES AN AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE @charles1dad I have an Auralic DAC but will be upgrading to the Holo May. The Auralic served well for many years but it’s time to move up. I’m familiar with the Audio Bacon site and LPS reviews, great stuff. That site seems to be sadly winding ... | |
| Dummy Speaker Load Thanks all. It's not just breaking in the CD player, it's treating all the electronics and cabling. Moving the speakers and reversing polarity is not the best option for me. So if all I need is a resistor like oddiofyl and carlsbad mention, then... | |
| CD TRANSPORT THAT MAKES AN AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE Just stumbled on this post after being off Agon for a while, and perfect timing as I’m researching a transport. Lots of good info and especially thanks for charles1dads informative (and persuasive) posts. Planning on picking up an RS2T this week. ... | |
| The Cable Co I’ve had good and bad experiences and have given them thousands of dollars. The guy who normally takes care of me E**** has been mostly good, not always. A few times I’ve spoken to others with less luck. The worst time was about 7 years ago when I... | |
| Easy Windows App for Flac & AIFF for Novice Boy you don't want much do you. Best is subjective. Windows has built in. VLC, Foobar, many more. What's UX. If sound quality matters then don't use BT, it's the great equalizer that will degrade most music regardless of the player. | |
| Revel Performa F228 Be speaker... thoughts? Revels are nice but can be a bit boring. They do nothing wrong, and most things right. But they lack any kind of character. I sold mine, my audio buddy had some big Revels and he did the same. | |
| Best Integrated Amp (for me) In your price range most of the stuff mentioned here is pretty boring. I'd just go for the little Rega which has some actual life to it and be done. | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? Then what? People wake up and go back to their class a and a/b amps. | |
| Is JRiver still the best software? soundwise, yep by far | |
| Need advice on the BEST Android based tablet for TIDAL. "...some tablets don't support Tidal like Google Chrome" What? Chrome is an OS.A bit more research, and a bit better-formulated questions might help. | |
| Music Servers, Do They Matter? @mastering92seriously dude, "finally someone that agrees with me". lol"OP, it's up to you. Don’t spend too much, don’t spend too little." lol | |
| How much difference in Sound quality can be expected from different streamers? Roku is not for audio, or good audio, anyway.Big difference in the way streamers sound. Maybe not all, but many. |
