    Re: Lumin P1 vs. X1

    The better comparison might be the P1 against the MSB Discrete.

    Re: Anyone with Simaudio experience

    Thanks to Mike, I have the Simaudio 390, which easily lives up to all of its rave reviews and awards. I can't speak to Sim's higher-priced models other than to point to the law of diminishing...

    Re: Esoteric N-01XD

    MSB vs EMM vs Esoteric would be an interesting comparison.

    Re: NEW Bryston Preamp, Streamer, DAC

    A little more than the Simaudio 390, which comes standard with the phono and HDMI functionality, and also has WiFi capability.

    A listening comparison would be interesting.

    Re: NEW Bryston Preamp, Streamer, DAC

    It looks a lot like the Simaudio 390, which is amazing. Especially for the money.

    Thanks again Mike for making that happen.

    I’m not a techie, so please bear with me. Does “each of the two ... sleds accommodates a[n] ... 8TB SSD” mean that the N20 can accommodate up to 16 TB of internal storage? But the customer has to...

    Re: Whispers of a Magico M9 Coming Soon?

    I was already friends with Mike at the time, and I can attest to this. In fact, I believe Mike’s exact words were: “I would NEVER start an audio business.”

    Re: Magico and class D amp

    Aren’t the Luxman and Naim units analog only?

    The Exasound Playpoint DM is also very good, but you’d still need to add an amp.

    Good luck with the search.

    Re: Magico and class D amp

    If you want to consider non-Canadian brands, I doubt anything can touch the Boulder 866 for anywhere near its price, although that's probably more than you'd like to spend. $15,000 with the DAC? ...

    If you'd like to save money, Anthem (another underrated Canadian brand) has their STR integrated on sale at the moment. Class A Stereophile rated, DAC included, runs cool, and has room correction. ...

    Re: Internet Radio.. favorites?

    Depends on what you like.

    For Jazz and Blues:
    1. WBGO (128 kbps): shows I like include Blues Break (weekdays 2:00 to 4:00 pm (all times Eastern)); Portraits in Blue (Friday 8:00 to 9:00 pm);...
  14. Aoife O'Donovan - Livestream Saturday 4/25 6pm PT/9pm ET

    She's a terrific singer, often featured on "Live From Here" on NPR.

    Which I only listen to when the cable is out and I can't get Fox News, Rush, Laura, etc.

    ;)

    This one really hurts, especially because his last album was so good. And it had been too long since the prior one.

    Let's divide this between software and hardware, especially for those of you running Roon on "NUC"s and other machines.

    For software, I think Roon seems to work fairly well, and it sounds very...

    Re: Magico A5 Official Release

    The A5 is approximately 1" taller, 1" wider and 3" deeper than the A3.

    But it is a lot heavier, and a lot more expensive.

    Well, I would trade in my "dry Swiss amp", but I'm pretty sure I could only afford one power cord.
