| Amazon music vs Qobuz The big question is what sounds better. Tidal Hi-Fi subscription or Qobuz. Someone demonstrated Qobuz in a blind test and I picked Qobuz every time. Problem is I am not willing to give up the Tidal format. I was sold on the idea of hooking up ... | |
| Recommendations for good sounding streamer I certainly wouldn’t use Spotify. Use either Tidal or Qobuz and stream hi-res. Otherwise why bother. | |
| Only two tracks to test your system, forever! Nasty By:Vincent Ingalla | |
| Digital is far better than vinyl It sounds like you purchased some very inexpensive equipment. Not sure this was a fair test. The prices you paid seem very cheap. | |
| My first tube integrated: which one to get? Since the Focal 926's lack bass, you might add a pair of REL SHO's. You will find this a game changer. I was looking at the Focal 926's, but decided they lacked the bass. A pair if Kanta's would be a large step up. | |
| Power conditions for Integrated Amps I wonder if you were to do a blind test to 50 people or more if people would hear a noticeable difference in sound quality. If they would hear a difference, what would they year. Would it suddenly grab their attention? | |
| Sound is better when I stand up? How close to the back wall do you have your speakers positioned. I moved mine forward and it was a game changer. | |
| Best way to keep REL sub from “hopping around” at high volumes I have 2 REL SHO’s and they certainly don’t hop around. You must have the volume turned up way too high and you most likely want a thumping bass sound. I play mine at 40% volume. If you can hear your subs they are too loud. Play them as woo... | |
| I keep being reminded of how much power cords mater I upgraded my speaker wires, digital cables and power cords to my amplifier and BlueSound Node 2i. I heard a huge difference in speaker wires but not on the power cords. Still wonder if using a digital cable was a good idea because by doing so I... | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? Miller Carbon you certainly are knowledgeable and know what you are talking about. I will have to go to a local dealer and listen to a tube amp. Wish was able to spend the money this group spends. My problem is I have a gate keeper who keeps me... | |
| The character of analog and digital I always thought I heard a lot of noise when hearing a needle tracking along a record groove. However, it has been many years since I have played vinyl. I need to go to a dealer to hear the difference again. I must be missing something. | |
| Aurender N20 Streamer & Holo May DAC vs Analog What do you hear with the Aurender that you don't hear with a BlueSound Node 2i? If you can hear a significant difference, what would I hear that is different? I might consider upgrading if there is a significant difference in sound quality. Wo... | |
| What is the forums opinion of SVS subs? I think REL's high level connection technology is just incredible. This allows them to play more like woofers and they seamlessly extend the bass if set up properly. I added two REL SHO's to my system and it was a game changer. I would recommen... | |
| To pricey What do you plan to drive them with? | |
| Starting from scratch in a large room I wonder if a surround system might work such as Definitive Technologies. Wall mounted with hidden wires. Looks like you are more interested in creating a mood rather than trying to truly image sound. |
