| Ten Years After “Space in Time” 50th Anniversary Re-Mix Great to hear. Thanks for the tip. i've always liked TYA and this album. I can't believe it slipped out with so little fanfare. | |
| To ROON or not to ROON ? Sorry to hear about your problem with the Node, tee dee. I don’t think I can be much help, though. I had a Node but it set up very easily. Have you downloaded the Bluesound app? Can you run an ethernet cable into the Node? Start a new thread and... | |
| What is the VERY BEST CD album you've ever heard? Layla Revisited - Live at Lockn' Tedeschi Trucks Band Delivers on the potential of the original Layla. Recorded live, the music and sound are first rate. I Am the Moon Tedeschi Trucks Band Tedeschi Trucks own take on the story of Layl... | |
| Roon Room Correction- Who Has used it? Opinions please! Roon equalization will allow you to adjust frequency ranges up or down, but it has no way of telling you which frequencies to adjust. I don't know of any way to plug a microphone into the Roon software. | |
| Distinctly Digital Forever? hickamore, Why not just listen to FM and vinyl if that's what you like? it's unlikely that someone on a forum will come up with the DAC that's going to give you the exact sound you want in your system given all the variables. You'll get a lot of... | |
| Distinctly Digital Forever? Something always made me believe that a decent tube preamp could "mellow" or "naturalize" the sound of digital sources. Dgital sources can sound natural and even mellow, if that’s what you want. I prefer just natural and there are many choices ... | |
| Distinctly Digital Forever? So, just to further my understanding: assuming price no object, does there exist any DAC, or DAC/Pre combo, capable of making my streamer (or the best streamer in existence, for that matter) sound indistinguishable from an FM radio signal, That... | |
| Downloading question pertaining to HDTracks I haven't downloaded from HDTracks, so take this for what it's worth. They probably let you queue 3 songs so that you can walk away from your computer and keep it busy until you return. | |
| AAVIK THE BEST KEPT Sereat IN DIGITAL Thanks @arafiq for the very helpful information. That's not always easy to get. | |
| Passion, or ..... Precision? Ozzy, Rainbow, Lizzy and my beloved Status Quo etc. Their early material just doesn’t ’cut it’ on a high end system (IMO) and I find it more fatiguing to listen to. Modern technology and attention to detail in the recording studio has really date... | |
| AAVIK THE BEST KEPT Sereat IN DIGITAL Just to be clear, Dave, the S-280 is a streamer only, no DAC? The D-280 is a DAC only and the U-280 is an integrated amp with a DAC, correct? | |
| 12AX7 use in EVO 100 line A few years ago all the PL products used a mixture of 12AX7s and 12AU7s. Kevin Deal, PL importer in the US, talked the designer into using all 12AU7s because there were more available and many vintage12AU7s were cheaper than comparable 12AX7s. So... | |
| Psychologist dissects Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' @jafant - You're welcome. Dave said the master tapes for the original were burned up in the Universal fire. He said he still liked the songs and still played them, so why not rerecord it. I'm glad he did. | |
| Rodney Crowell teams up with Jeff Tweedy. @bdp24 - I have to think it's an honest artistic challenge for Rodney, but we know those don't always work out. I hope it does, but we'll see. As Rodney sang about fame and lots of other things on "Close Ties" not too long ago, "I Don't Care Any... | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @simao - Your rant against Ray Charles makes me think you've been listening to too much rap. Try something else for a while and your mood should improve. |
