No. I suspect any benefits of the isolation in the rack are probably being neutered by the CS2 footers under the electronics (the pre-amp, transport, transport power supply and DAC all sit on CS2's). The CS2 were doing their thing before the YG rack...

I am using a Audioquest Niagara 7000 on a dedicated line for most of my Audio equipment. A 1200 on another dedicated line for my 2 JL Fathom F-113 subs. And a 1000 on a 3rd dedicated for my Home theater equipment. I wonder how that would compare to...

Sometimes I wonder what makes cables so expensive. There is the type of wire, gauge, and dialectic used. Perhaps methods for shielding and twisting but what really is there that makes cables $5000 plus more? ozzy

Cool, just got word that our first batch has shipped. Second batch coming next week.

Hi Tom, welcome.

Hi Gang, I just got a notice today that the digital version of the December 2020 issue of TAS is now available for subscribers for download. Robert Harley's review of Everest is on page 126. And, I just noticed in my Instagram feed today that...

:tup:

Thank you Stephen. I'll take a look. I have some time.

Thanks! I just sent you a reply.

Get the new Lampizator Baltic-3. Trust me on this....

That would be an option I guess. I like the direct path with as little interference for Roon in my system. What I have works well without mucking around with any added conditions just to have another remote. To those who can benefit with the new...

Thanks for the telling and you have a great system.

Well I just finished making a 3M DIY Balanced interconnect to compare to the Shunyata Sigma. I made this interconnect using 20 gauge 9999 solid soft silver wire sleeved into some oversized teflon tubing. I used the Xhadow XLR's connectors. So far,...

If you use Roon on a NAS You can buy a Logitech Harmony remote and install Deepharmony on your NAS to make your remote control Roon and then control your Lumin And you can use that same remote to control in the same time, the streamer, the...

Just got the new Lumin Remote control! Really digging it! ozzy

Hey AJ!!! Yeah, I'm still around and kicking, and I am indeed having a few health issues I've been struggling to get ahead of! In fact, it was just about 4 years back now when my wife returned from visiting her family in Colombia, S.A. The...

Couldn’t you just set your i7 computer to run Roon core on your network and free up that USB? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sorry for the late reply but yes that is something isn't it! Also very interesting for me was the role radio played in the music industry back then. Very fascinating to see the way these guys out in Fresno City did their thing. Also makes me...

Unfortunately this is not a problem that my dealer can deal with This is the sadness It is in the Lumin, the specs are not true for every configuration. Something wrong with its USB drivers

So since my Lumin T2 has only one usb input (hint....weak link) which I use from the i7 silent computer with a rather pricey Shunyata cable to stream Tidal and Qobuz via Roon. I now have to buy a cheap usb hub to share the pathway in order to use a...

Why dont you bring it back to your Dealer, see what he can figure out for you.

Peter, sorry to insist on this I bought a Lumin U1 Mini thinking it is a 32 bits player on 32 bits capable DAC My DAC is 32 bits and Lumin U1 Mini does not deliver over USB 32 bits flow So I want this solved. It is not acceptable to only make it...

I am really glad to see such enthusiasm :) I am sure this remote would make music even better I am also sure that this remote would make Lumin U1 Mini a real 32bits player :)

Our US Distributor is advising the price will be $299 for the remote. Dealers are also required to buy a small truck load. No one off orders. We have ordered our first truck load. Still no ETA. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Here is a compilation of vintage stereo commercials and more. Nostalgia! :) Vintage Stereo Commercials And More - YouTube

Research, invention, innovation. Science and engineering at work. It is actually amazing to see a technological product invented over 100 years ago still in use today. The ICE and electric power generation using turbines/coal/gas are other...

this is the part of your argument many will have a problem with. You're making the presupposition that low noise circuits have to be passive by default which ins't true. indeed, sound reproduction would be impossible without active circuits and...

Thanks for sharing this amps solid state.

Congratulations Ken. Very glad you are happy.

I will close this thread by say thanks to everyone. The Luxman amp and the Klipsh RF3's are an amazing match. While enjoying this new journey I am on if creating a pleasing sound system to my ears I will be now on the hunt for "that " special...

thx, very interesting! did you feel a sonic benefit from the yg rack? really love thouse m3. sonic, size, the lock (i showed my wife lots and lots pictures from speakers and she choosed the m3 very clearly). unfortunately the price in europe is a...

Jim, I have a friend who wants it. PM coming

Great deal Jim.

I worked in the Orlando metro area for a few years and all I remember is the traffic and the apartments complexes.

I never built any Hafler kits, we had a Heathkit store nearby so I built those. Me and my buddy each had double Advents and we each bought Heathkit AA1640 amp kits. They were 200wpc into 8ohms and 400wpc into 4ohms. It took me about 50 hours to...

I became known to this fact and subsequently pulled out the AV portion - it’s amazing what occurs when other speakers are in the room. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Welcome! I may of come after the swamp but I did navigation training there at Navy Base Orlando in 1987. I went back on business the year before last and no one I spoke to even heard of the Navy being there. The convention center was one of...

Dave, WOW!!!! Orlando was basically a swamp? Boy how times have changed. I can tell you where I moved to in East Orlando just 16 years ago has drastically! I cannot believe how many new stores and apartment buildings have sprung up. On another...

I have threatened to do this and keep putting it off. I want to take it on as a Father/Son project - this will help me get going in that direction - thanks for sharing! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

FWIW, I have a several-months-old, like-new Topping D90 that I would consider selling for around $300 dollars or so. It was $699, IIRC. I simply have too many dacs sitting around here...

Thanks for posting. Interesting the marketing then hasn’t really changed for today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Excellent! One suggestion - if you have not already done this - when listening to music, try leaving your HT amps on, but with the volume turned down completely. This will keep the drivers of your surrounds & center speaker in place, unable to...

Thanks for sharing, was looking forward to seeing what was brewing down under. Enjoy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Beautiful website and ultimately functional,...well done Mike!!! Much better than others out there!

Great system...beautiful!!!

I agree, hard to argue the choices although I do not have much personal experience with the brands. The one thing I would argue is his not including a dedicated pre-amp. I assume that these top tier DACs have wonderful volume functions built in,...
