well, I went from Rogers to Dalia to Neat but if someone had just said go buy the ATC 150scm or a Wilson.... I could have saved a lot of money and time.....

Naturally I know Bluesound, that was my3 or 4th jump into a Node 2i, I think it was. I just don't know the Icon. Spendor is nice middle of the road speaker that I am sure you will like.

I am a user RayP, nothing more.... to get where I am today, I wasted so much time, money and energy trying other stuff... I would have gladly had some Nick guy, come along and just say buy this.... and you will be happy. Furthermore, I don't know the Icon that you mentioned at all. I just found...

RayP, you still will be disappointed by the bluesound streamer. I love Tidal, especially the fact they give more to the artists/content makers. Apple is 2nd in that category. What ever provider you use, you are going to need a reclocker and then a dac. It is so simple once you have it. I...

RayP, all you need is a DAC and you will have hi-res.... the big question is which DAC and how far you want to go down the rabbit hole

Seems like anything with audio always includes a Thesycon driver, so I assumed that MS hasn’t been very interested in high audio files. I see they are still making drivers too. https://thesycon.de/eng/usb_audiodriver.shtml I don’t know what the difference is either.

This question is rather tricky, mostly due to Apple bs and their marketing division. AirPlay = wireless = limited bandwidth/latency issues/ blah blah. I say stay away from it AAC = ALAC = Dolby = decoders. Someone at wiki has put a lot of work into decoders in Apple. Here is the link...

I didn’t really want a computer in my chain either hence the Blue sound experiment. Unfortunately things cost money and as an early adopter of technology, I wanted great sound. In the end it didn’t really cost much for a hobby. ($3000usd aprox) First of all you don’t need to buy brand new, you...

The windows version you need a driver... mac is plug and play. well that isn't completely true you need to go to the Apple midi and turn up the bits and clocks...... then it really shines.

honestly this not an accurate opinion of apple's high resolution capabilities. I am sorry that you see it this way but if you read the below comment even you will be blown away with those 2 boxes from Denafrips.... honestly blow away. For instance my fellow canadian company Blue Sound Node...

I asked this very question 3 years ago. A really nice guy from England helped me out and it went like this in the very short abbreviated form: go buy ad Denefrips rec locker there are 2 versions pick one Then go buy one of their DACs I bought the middle of the road one and there is now an even...

Just saw this from a few years ago..... it sorta downgrades the What Hi*FI label doesn't it? LS3/5a were probably Britain's top 5 of most famous speakers....
