The Truth about Modern Class D I use a NAD M12/M22 v2 combination and, overall, I'm very happy with the SQ. I'm a bit new to digital equipment, and since this is my first digital system, I have nothing else to compare it to - other than auditioning components at a dealer. | |
LP Cleaning My okki nokki mk2 works well for me. | |
The Truth about Modern Class D erik_squiresOld school, get professional help from GIKand don't neglect the flooring, between and behind the speakers. Try using pillows and blankets to test with for free. :)Erik, thanks much for the advice. I have throw rugs, over a tile floor... | |
The Truth about Modern Class D I'm new to digital music, but not analog. I have a vintage McIntosh system that's been my main system for almost 20 years.I started building a listening room digital system about 4 months ago. I'm mostly-retired and didn't want to spend too much... | |
Leaving Solid State Equipment on all the Time I agree that heat is the enemy of electronic equipment. I also think that if kept cool, you can run your equipment 7/24 with no issues. Computers are a good example of that. My desktop computer is liquid cooled, runs 7x24, and I've never had a ... | |
Leaving Solid State Equipment on all the Time I must say, my music does sound much better when I leave the equipment on. My NAD M12 pre/dac and M22 v2 power amp have a standby mode, but the Zenith does not. First chance I get, I'm going to place the NADs in standby mode for a few hours and ... | |

blue jeans cable? First I made my own bi-wire cables :-). Bought a pair of their Canare cables and the sound improvement was rather dramatic. The build quality is outstanding IMHO, and the price was definitely right. | |
Leaving Solid State Equipment on all the Time Zenith setup is very user friendly. Instead of Roon, I use LMS because I have several Squeezebox Duets, Raspberry PI Squeezelight players, and AirPlay speakers making up my whole house music system. I have the 2 TB model and have started ripping... | |

20 Amp Power Cables into a 15A Power Conditioner If you use an adaptor it will be detrimental to your sound just use the right connector!! That's my intention. I was offered a good deal on 20 amp cables and was just looking at options. | |
20 Amp Power Cables into a 15A Power Conditioner Thanks for the advice. | |
Innuos Zenith I bought the Zenith MKII and I must say, it's SQ is a lot better than my Mac 7008 MCD and Squeezebox Duet! Plus, I no longer need/use either of those on my main system. Since Roon does not support the ability to synchronize "rooms" that use dif... |
