Need to under stand Asynchronous USB
So I use tidal through my iPad to control the Marantz streaming. The Marantz is connected to my WiFi, so is the actual music data coming from my iPad or my computer in my room where the WiFi is located even though I have no app downloaded on my co...

How much quality is lost streaming Tidal via wireless vs hardwired?  I read that wireless is not so good.  
Need to under stand Asynchronous USB
Moto. I’m feeding the DAC info through the Marantz. I guess im still a little confused. I’m runner no a standard thumb drive into the Marantz witch then sends it via coax digital out to the coax in of the DAC (nad m51). Do I still need a reclocker...

Item 2) you mention, does that mean my DAC does the reclocking and I don’t need an external reclocker? 
Need a new universal transport
Correct. I meant universal as in audio file types. My bad.i purchased it from Audio Advisor so if there is any issue sending it back won’t be a problem.  
Need a new universal transport
Based on everything I’ve read it seems to do what it says. We’ll see.  
Need a new universal transport
I decided to splurge a bit more and go for a Marantz ND8006 CD player and steamer. Looks promising.

Looking for a new (used) phono preamp to replace EAR834
I recently purchased a vintage ARC PH3 SE, for $900. It’s quite nice. I don’t know if it’s worse - same - or better than your current unit, but I love it. I like it just as much as my Parasound JC 3+.  
So many new TT's at lower price, still better off buying used?
Jrpnde,i own a PL530 and a 1200GR. The GR is way better. I also own a VPI Prime, the Prime with speed control is better than the GR.  
What do you mean you “heard” the turntable
 People keep running to “of course you can hear a turntable.” That’s not the question, the question is how can someone go to some other system and talk about how that specific turntable sounds better or worse than a completely different TT in a co... 
What do you mean you “heard” the turntable
 Though I have not done the test I would be willing to bet that a $2000 cartridge on a $500 turntable with sound just as good  if not better  Than $10,000 turntable with an $200 cartridge.  But you would never really be able to tell unless they we... 
If you love the Ortofon 2M Black, you'll really love...... (help me upgrade)
I’m just gonna throw it out there, Nagaoka MP-500.only $650 too. I'm sure it will get shunned for its lowly price.

@ rockinroni I’m not saying you can’t hear the difference, I absolutely believe you can hear the difference, but only if the change of turntable is within the same system otherwise I’ll bets are off.
