Thanks.

Mike, out of curiosity, just how big of a difference in sound is there between the B&W and Magico speakers? I have been assuming that at the high end there might be some sonic differences between...

I would suggest the Lumin X1. With the Lumin you rip your CDs, and can stream the online music. Also, with the Lumin you don't need a DAC, DAC interconnect cable, and DAC power cord. That will...

Every once in a while I get a strange message when trying to reach the forum. For example, I received it multiple times yesterday, but today I connect to the forum with no issue. I am using an...

Thanks.

Is the idea behind the Melco to replace the Lumin X1 hard drive? If so does it have the 2000 song limit on playlists?

Or it is the only exercise they get, or can tolerate. :D

I’ve been a Netflix customer for DVD rentals since they started in the late 90s. However, just today I decided to drop the service since I might watch a movie every month or two. It’s interesting...

I didn’t see anything that stated or implied it has preamp ability.

An integrated amp has a built in preamp. Separate amps require an external preamp.

Unless you have some esoteric DAC a DAC’s output is very low. It needs a preamp to drive the amps.

A DAC has absolutely nothing to do with an amp.

I attach my hard drive directly to the X1 and that bypasses/eliminates any network issues.

I don't know what a "minim server" is, but album art occasionally not being shown on the iPad Mini has always occurred. Sometimes it appears if you touch the black spot where the art should be. ...

I noticed on an earlier post my sig was missing. Somehow it got turned off. Testing to see if it is now working.

For those of us who use a preamp and have no need to use Lumin volume, please don’t clutter the screen with unnecessary controls.

How does the signal receiver know if the signal has been previously affected by jitter? How does it ‘dejitter’ the received signal?

I have two stereos. One is purely music while the other has a 75” Sony if needed.

You need to deal with the oil companies about gas prices. However, I guess the government could stop the oil companies subsidies. But that would price gas at its actual value.

Since the stereo sounds better after the sun sets, the air cools down, and people are inside I would prefer Standard Time. However, whatever gets chosen I am in favor, since I am tired of changing...

I love my Shunyata power cords. Without a doubt, they are the best upgrade I have done to my gear. Granted, I am now using an older generation of their product, but at the time it was TOTL. ...

I upgraded my S1 power cable with the X1 cable and power supply, and it made a big improvement. So I have never given any thought to upgrading the cable on the X1.

I only use the Lumin now. Haven't turned the CDP on in a year.

A few weeks ago I had some popping from the right speaker. Tonight it happened again. Tomorrow I will switch the preamp outputs and see if the left speaker has this issue. If so then I need to change...
