    MSB to offer new module for SACD fans

    Disappointed. Hope you can work it out. Any other transport to test the I2S module itself?

    Stereophile, etc Acquired

    When I lived in Mobile, AL, other than a couple of home theater installers, Best Buy was the only option. There was some presence in New Orleans, and Atlanta. So Suncoast, and Mike, was my go to. Now, in Seattle, there are at least 3 qualified brick and mortar stereo companies. One, not quite a...

    Stenocord Model D

    Can you even get the plastic sleeves to record on any more? My dad a slightly more modern version of that to dictate his medical reports into for transcription. As to the electrics, you will probably need to take the hand set apart , and trace wires from microphone to the pins responsible, with...

    New MSB DAC

    Nice upgrade. My Premier+DD not going anywhere, anytime soon. Please let us know how much of an upgrade it is.

    Acoustic panel for flat TV

    In my 2.0 system, the speaker baffles are 4 feet from the back wall, and 9-10 feet apart. I do have an equipment rack under my TV (see my entry in the DIY section). My current treatments include stacked GIK corner absorbers, and one 2x4 (6”) baffle on one of the back side walls. These...

    Acoustic panel for flat TV

    Interesting device. I do understand room treatment and some of the issues that @W9TR describes. I have generally measured my rooms with REW and attempted to treat accordingly. I have a very thin TV mounted on my wall, with no space behind it. I’m not sure that the surface of my TV reflects...

    MSB to offer new module for SACD fans

    Let me know what you think. I’m interested in how they expose the port on the back of the unit. Do you have the MSB I2S module already?

    MSB to offer new module for SACD fans

    I had upgraded my 203 with the Linear PSU, and transport stabilizer several years ago. Company, and products seem legit. Might be a good “small” project for me to do while waiting for my house to clear out, and I can start some bigger ones. (Daughter, SIL, and granddaughter living at my house...

    What can do more than anything to improve your room & speakers? FIR filters maybe?

    The computer needs to be playing to the DAC, and also have a microphone attached, to run REW or GSonic, measurement process, and subsequently create a filter. The system works by first playing sound through the system, while measuring that sound. It needs to be working both sides. With just a...

    What can do more than anything to improve your room & speakers? FIR filters maybe?

    I did a convolution filter for my old room, using REW to measure and create the filter, and Roon to configure. I’ll probably give a go again once my room and system stabilize later this year, and the weather gets bad. I try to maximize speaker positioning, and room treatments first though, to...

    Anyone else use crappy tubes?

    Same, I will typically use the manufacturer supplied tubes for break in purposes.

    New MSB DAC

    Not looking to do anything more big this year. But I already use my Premier + DD as DAC only, with a separate Pre-Amp for analog input. I would be interested in the trade-up options for this DAC, not sure I could swing upgrading to the Cascade.

    nadac S

    Better looking than Taiko, to me. Seeing that it has HDMI, and DisplayPort, and a front display, I’m sure that the parts of windows that run YouTube should be there. Not that I will ever get one of these, but nice to see all the “quality of life” features in such a high end dedicated server...

    Hello

    Welcome. Other than assembling a “Tode” guitar amp (no longer available) from Bottlehead, I’m like you: my son pays Bass Guitar. He has some smaller amps with small speakers inside, with several effects available. I don’t recall what kind they are.
