Since it’s been three months since my last entry, I decided to post again. I’m happy to say that I still think my system is perfect and needs no upgrading of any kind. My hi-fi madness is over.

I love my stereo system, which includes a Cambridge audio edge A amplifier, a WiiM ultra streamer, a Qutest DAC, a REL Classic 98 sub, two Revel M126Be speakers, and very good cables, but was noticing that the sound stage wasn’t what I thought it should be. After reading the Wiim manual, which...

By the way, switching the Qutest from one volt to 2 Volt output on another day also made a giant difference.

I just installed the MCRU power supply on my system for the Qutest DAC. I had read a lot of different opinions about whether it made much difference or not. I’m sure it’s partially system specific. But on my system: Cambridge Audio Edge A amp, WiiM Ultra streamer, Rel sub, and Revel M126Be...

Thank you both for speaking up for me. Very much.

I’ve been really enjoying my system, which includes a WiiM Ultra streamer, Revel M126Be speakers, and the Cambridge Audio Edge A amplifier, but I could tell that something was not quite perfect. I realized that the DAC in the Edge A wasn’t separating the instruments and voices enough and the...

I am in the same situation. I cannot get the Chord Rumour X connectors to fit into either my speakers or my amp. I’ve tried several times and no go. Help please

Thank you both for your responses. I love this group and all of your support.

When I purchased the amp, it had already been broken in for 30 hours, so I thought that it was completely broken in. Much to my surprise, in fact, it’s getting better and better. To the point where it’s becoming completely breathtaking.

As I listen more to the new amp, I’m struck by its excellence. It’s definitely several steps up from the original one in soundstage and articulation of each instrument, and exceptionally alive.

I just installed the Edge A amp. It’s very interesting to compare it with my previous CXA81amp. On a few cuts there really wasn’t that much difference, but on most songs, what stands out greatly is the much increased spatial information. you really feel like you’re sitting in front of the...

I will let you know when I get the Edge. Reasons that I got it: I love the sound of Cambridge Audio amps, because my CXA81 performs incredibly. I got a great deal The reviews are great Hegel amps are quite expensive and don’t stream Amazon And it has all of the connections that I need

Wow! Thank you for your great response. I’m learning a lot. And I live in a house so no problems with those below 🙂

Thank you all. Being a complete novice, I don’t know anything about the placement of subwoofers. And where I can put, it is very limited. Is placement really crucial?
