| Incorporating headphones into my pc audio system I think one question to answer first is are you willing to have a long cable in the room, or do you want a listening station in the immediate area of the computer? | |
| Incorporating headphones into my pc audio system Many headphone amps have dacs built into them. Redundant yes, as you have a dac, but By connecting one to your laptop directly, you can get away with a shorter headphone cable. You may even decide to buy a portable dac/amp, should you ever want... | |
| Need streaming setup help! I agree with the above poster. I am a big Apple loyalist, but I am not interested in their airports. There are better and faster WiFi routers available.as for the blusound and mytek, this could be nice. Bluesound is a simple device with a mobile a... | |
| if you had my system and $2,000 budgeted for an upgrade, where would you spend it? Thank you Charles. I agree. In fact I would like a better arm and a better tone arm Cable. Since I originally wrote this post, I sold the subwoofer and Rockport monitors, and bought a pair of Wilson Sophia Series 2 speakers. It was a really nice m... | |

| Looking for a portable DAC with MQA, DSD and high resolution capable (24/192) Did you check meridian explorer 2? | |
| Searching for the most "accurate" speaker (below 15K) Vermeer,have you considered Wilson Audio? I know the secondhand market in Portugal is relatively small, But if you can get a pair of Sophia 3, Watt Puppy 8, or even Sasha 1 used, you will get some amazing resolution and detail. Can your nagra am... | |
| Headphone Dac/Amp 3-way Comparison Review thanks, glad you liked it! | |
| Best DAC for my situation...Read on! I hear that. It is certainly a hurdle. However, it can be easily managed. For example, I have an older mac mini, with no display, always on, always running roon, always connected to my dac. I have the timer on the mac restart itself once per d... | |
| Best DAC for my situation...Read on! For $2k, I would absolutely recommend the PS Audio Perfect Wave Dac Mark II with Bridge II. This is a $4800 combination and can likely be had for $2k or perhaps a touch less if you’re lucky. You may not find them together, but the are compatible... | |
| South Florida - join in and make a REAL effort! There is a location in Pinecrest, FL (south suburbs of Miami for those who are not in this immediate area). It is next to a Trader Joe's. I was in there about 2-3 months ago. I have not noticed any signs of permanent closure. Give them a call.... | |
| Open Floor Plan Listening Room That’s a tough one. I love open plan homes, and I can’t think of a good way to occasionally close off a room - at least in a practical or attractive way.Since you have planars, which are usually a little light in the bass anyway, perhaps adding a... | |
| My experience with Galen Carol Audio Nope. It was just a well-deserved testimonial. I have no affiliation with the dealer, nor did he ask me to post anything. This was a shout out to someone who deserved it, and a heads up to those on this forum looking for a good dealer. | |
| Wilson Sasha 2 Pre owned? My friend has the Sasha two’s with audio research electronics. They are incredible. I have Sophia two’s, also with audio research electronics, And to my ears, they are also incredible! The Sasha’s have more bass, and more of that holographic sou... |
