| Speaker upgrade question - Wilson vs Focal Wilson speaker’s are for old guys with tinnitus or hearing damage. They sound great! | |
| Music Server vs CD Music server gets my vote. CDs are for old guys! | |
| Speaker upgrade question - Wilson vs Focal I owned a pair of Wilson Sophia 2s and now own a pair of Focal Sopra 1s. I much prefer the Sopras. Not a fan of the lower end Wilson’s. I am running subwoofers with the Focals as I did with the Wilsons. | |
| I want a streamer The Lumin U1 is the best streamer (no DAC) I have used in my system. | |
| NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier Did you pay $99.00 for the full Dirac Live solution or are you using the out of the box functionality? I haven't tried it yet | |
| My Speaker Journey and Focal Sopra 2 Big Focal fan here. I have a small dedicated audio room - 11.5’x15’ and the Focal Sopra 1s and JL Audio F112 subs integrate nicely | |
| NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier I forgot to mention, but it should be obvious, the NAD M10 has a built in DAC so all you need is a pair of speakers to have a complete system | |
| Questions on next steps with my power amp Power cables and speaker wires are the last thing you need to worry about! | |

| Price vs performance Mid-Fi rules! | |
| Anything wrong with PS Audio DirectStream DACs? I own a Directstream DAC and don’t agree at all with the 750 hour burn in. It sounds great out of the box and you may notice small changes for the first hundred hours or so, but 750 hours...this is excessive and not needed. | |
| The JC Whitney syndrome I agree with the OP. There are many tweaks that just don’t work and are just silly. One man’s tweak is another man’s snake oil. | |
| Why the fascination with subwoofers? I bought the Focal Sopra No 1’s knowing they would be light in the bass region. Just picked up a pair of JL Audio F112 suns with custom floor stands. Wow! I had an old Definitive Technology sub before but having two subs of much higher quality ... | |
| DAC Suggestions for Aurender N100C I have a PS Audio Direcstream DAC. Excellent DAC and very good discounts can be had for a new one (~40%] |
