| Streamer Comparison and Suggestions I've found the response time from Innuos much faster than others. I have the Pulse Mini using the Zen Mini LPS and have heard the Pulse [measurable improvement]. I would imagine the Pulsar is excellent. | |
| Is there such a thing as a good medium priced music streamer? Innuos Pulse Mini | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Hi Mike: I'm presently working on prototype audio cabinets as I've started a bespoke furniture company after 40 years in insurance. I've been making fine furniture for over 33 years. My firm's initial niche is for those wanting beautiful furnitur... | |
| Streamer question I, too, have gone the route of the Pulse Mini with the Zen LPSU power supply. I couldn't be happier. | |
| VANDERSTEEN dealer in Tacoma WA has reopened under new ownership I've been there once specifically to listen to Vandersteen Treo's. They were more than welcoming and assured an excellent listening experience. Will be my first call when I have the funds to make that move. | |
| Why Streaming Service Sounds ‘Flat’ vs Tune In /Local FM /Radio Paradise You also won't need a linear power supply and expensive cabling connecting power to the streamer as the Innuos Pulse incorporates a toroidal transformer built-in along with appropriate damping and separation. The Pulse integrates medical grade IEC... | |
| Why Streaming Service Sounds ‘Flat’ vs Tune In /Local FM /Radio Paradise I second soix's sentiment about the source being the mismatch. As concerns Innuos, I'd recommend the Pulse as a viable streamer-only to the Esoteric CD/DAC. I've only performed a trial listening session with the Pulse Mini and Innuos' Sense APP a... | |
| Class D amplifiers. What's the future look like? I've been running the NAD 268 with my Naim preamp and believe it nicely compliments the latter. The folks at Upscale Audio made the suggestion. I know there are more unique designs of Class D that have come out recently, so there may be more h... | |
| Why would someone feel the need to comment unpleasant things on sale posts This almost seems to be an Ode to late 1970s Steve Martin (Movie - The Jerk) and a lyric line to The Grandmother Song off the album "Let's Get Small". The line is: "Criticize Things You Don't Know About" Sorry for your loss as well. I'... | |
| new to streaming- help! I've had issues with a non-BlueSound product running updated 64 bit programming where my streamer version, iPhone and iPad are all operating on 32 bit devices. Hence, "i" devices are not recognizing the streamer. No one has brought that up, but it... | |
| Preamp for a GaN-FET amp... For the pre-amp DAC strength, I am using a Naim NAC 272. They retailed for $7,200, but can be had used for about $2,100. Great SS device that doesn't run very warm. | |
| Does an upgrade make sense? I suggest you look to find a company who rents Herman Miller panels in your area. Try setting up a few of them to isolate your listening space. I'm a custom furniture maker and am focusing on bespoke audio cabinets and attractive isolation panels.... | |
| Focal/Naim APP forcing digital front end change Has anyone yet used or seen demo'd the Volumio Revo? This unit likely checks all the boxes. I've never used the Volumio App, so I have no experience with the company. They also have no dealers in North America which makes me a tad leery. Thoug... | |
| As A Youngster, What Unit Puqued Your Interest In All This? Dalquist DQ10s | |
| HELP!!!! Newbie looking for a decent 2 channel power amp in the $1,000 range I have an NAD C 268 and it really blends nicely with my Naim Preamp while not heating the place up. Not too bright; not too warm. Let's the pre-amp and source dictate the feel. 80 WPC that will more than drive what you desire. Also, can be put in ... |
