| P5-xe, codex, XLR interconnects I’m going to move this to a new thread under CD players rather than keep it alive here-it seems more appropriate. Thanks to everyone for their input | |
| P5-xe, codex, XLR interconnects I keep going back to @tomic601’s comment, start at the source I use most. So how inferior is the Rega Apollo R as a transport to the codex vs a significantly better CD player such as a used ARC CD-8 ($4,500 used) or perhaps something a bit less ex... | |
| P5-xe, codex, XLR interconnects Thanks to you all. I'll looked into the Mogami cables atmasphere. They're certainly quite reasonably priced.tomic and nyclee: Right now, I'm assuming that it's the other components, not the speakers that are the weak links. That's based on how ... | |
| B&O M100 speakers Thanks, they have stands. I had lunch with my friend today and told him that I would take them even though I don’t have a particular place for them right now, unless they sound better than my Sig 2s. He said, If I were going to take them instead o... | |
| Romex power cable as speaker cables? I don’t use it for my main, but because I had to carry the signal 60 feet from my system to my in ceiling kitchen speakers, I figured it was worth trying 10 gauge NM wire. The sound is a little bright but I think that’s more the speakers, and the ... | |
| Is there a better integrated amp than the Cary SI-300.2d for the money? I had a Creek 4330 for years. Actually I still have it and stored it before using it to build an office system. My system now has an Ayre integrated. My current Ayre is definitely a step up from the Creek, but they have 20 years of difference bet... | |
| Vandersteen 1ci vs Totem Arro Given that you would seem to be recreating what I found unsatisfactory, I'd highly recommend auditioning them with your amp before using the Aro with your PL. For me, they were great with female vocals, acoustic blues, some jazz, but could not ke... | |
| Vandersteen 1ci vs Totem Arro I had the Totem Aro speakers paired with a Prima Luna Classic integrated amp (their lowest model). It wasn't a good pairing. When I auditioned the Aro, the dealer had them paired with one of the better PrimaLuna amps. Big difference. I moved on... | |
| Wavelength Proton DAC vs. Codex & Adding a server/renderer Thanks, that makes sense. I hadn't thought of the balanced vs. unbalanced aspect. Sorry, I can be dense that way. Anyone have thoughts on the streaming source? | |
| Rotel RA-1570 to Ayre AX-7e yage, thanks I have an old integrated to use as long as turning on tape out doesn’t interrupt the AX-7 output to main. Can I put both spades under the speaker connection or would I have to re-terminate to have a single upstream spade? | |
| Rotel RA-1570 to Ayre AX-7e Thanks. So considering this brings up a question. I currently have speakers A&B with the Rotel. The A is my main and B is my kitchen. In there I have two 8 Ohm in wall speakers for each side (4 total). It's been a while but I'm pretty sure I w... | |
| Codex as pre or new CD Player Thanks badri - I'll read your thread, which I'm not sure how I missed. Performing as a "high quality" pre isn't exactly what I had in mind, just a "better quality" pre than the preamp portion of the Rotel. :-) My plan, (until something changes) is... | |
| Tidal skips to next track, or restarts when paused iPhone Thanks for that suggestion elevick. I have tried:Uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Cycling the router on and off. Playing the playlist "off-line".The action that seem to have the biggest difference was power cycling the router and restartin... | |
| Tidal skips to next track, or restarts when paused iPhone From TidalThank you for contacting TIDAL customer support. We are sorry for this inconvenience. Our backend operations team is aware of these playback issues, and they are working very hard to get this problem resolved in in a timely manner. A... | |
| Tidal skips to next track, or restarts when paused iPhone OK, I'll try the delete and reinstall and then learn why matt figures it won't work the way Tidal suggests. In terms of the rest of Matt's comments.... I don't know what LTB means, or how to set up a music server yet. I'm planning on doing that - ... |
