| New to DAC, need advice. haha!! Thats great! I can send you the Ayre Codex via fedex. Oh wait I dont have one, even for myself to use. I would either try to Pro-Ject and let us all know how it sounds....or save a few bucks and get the Bluesound. But hey don’t forget the M... | |
| New to DAC, need advice. “@2psyop I’m streaming Tidal HiFi from my Windows 10 PC to the ZDac via USB then into a Micromega IA-100 integrated. So I’m ok with USB to the Pro-ject. I like the dual mono as well and it’s certainly in my price range. I’m curious about your comm... | |
| New to DAC, need advice. Ratboysr- I am wondering about your setup. I think the Project Pre-box S2 will only input a digital audio MQA signal via usb. Optical or coax will not. I don’t know if you are using a computer with Tidal app via USB as a source, but that might be ... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 as a preamp? +2 KalaliI have used the Node 2 in various configurations and performs well in some, mediocre in others. I try to remember the price which makes it a “budget” component. Many are using it as a streamer, wired or wireless link to digital library, p... | |
| New to DAC, need advice. jond- good question! I don’t think the ZDAC will play MQA or hi-res files. If the OP is not trying to playback redbook quality he might?? be getting problems with the device. Try spotify or other streaming services orbtry Tidal non-hirez material ... | |
| Schiit not that Good? As trelja pointed out.What a surprise @madavid0, would initiate this thread.Past efforts by the Norman Vincent Peale of Audiogon:Anticables: Scam?Rega and Proac: Bad?Class D = Trash?Synergistic Research: SCAMCD players = dead?Basis Turntables: Wor... | |
| New to DAC, need advice. If the price is right, try the Pro-ject DAC box. I like Parasound but the MQA alone makes the Pro-ject better. | |
| Schiit not that Good? Yeah you guys trelja and 213runnin- sniffed out the crap from maddivid0. I did not see all the troll posts he had generated. I have a Shiit Bifrost Uber and think those guys do a great job with DACs.But I guess the OP has problems with Anticables,... | |
| Tidal and Spotify royalties I had posted this info before that I found somewhere?? Of the streaming sites Tidal is one of the most generous companies as musical artists make about $0.0003 per play. That was info from 2017. Amazing, Napster had top payouts at $0.0167 to $0.... | |
| Best standalone music server? I have not had those problems with my setup. But as you stated YMMV and my home wifi network has not dropped out. When I had an analog rig, could never get used to those pops and clicks even with a good vinyl cleaning. With digital, my audio has n... | |
| Streaming Audio - Yamaha WXC-50 The Yamaha looks very good! No real experience with it but I am a Bluesound Node 2 owner and luv it. Also Sony is in the game. I went with Bluesound cause I heard the customer support was great along with the sound. They help you with setup until ... | |
| Digital Files and Wi-Fi @audioengr ... would I have to use a computer monitor to access a library management tool if I went the Bluesound route, or could I use a tablet? Thanks.Not trying to intercept this message! But no, you do not need a computer to do anything. Blues... | |
| Best standalone music server? rlb61- There so many ways to go with a digital library of music. As mentioned Aurender, Wyred4sound, Bluesound, Cocktail Audio make streaming devices and allow access to digital storage files. So does Sony, NAD, Cambridge Audio, Auralic and many o... | |
| Best standalone music server? uberwaltz- Is your Lyngdorf a MQA enabled device?I believe the Bluesound Vault 2 will only send the digital signal for full unfolding to 192 res if the receiving DAC is MQA capable and you have set the Vault 2 to do so. If you send the fully unfol... |
