Thanks James for the explanation.

Yep. The Fosi doesn't have IR and neither HDMI, I could keep it at fixed volume but the Topping D50 III, as pre-amp DAC, seems to have a proprietary IR and Apple TV doesn't support it. I saved the Cambridge Audio MXW70 and the new Quad 3. As they're still not available, I keep going ahead with...

Good point. I need it to be able to power/wake up automatically through Trigger IN port or music sense (offered from some Cyrus ones), and to go on standby after a certain time. And it needs to have a IR remote, so I can change the volume with the Apple TV remote. They need to stay on my...

Hi everyone, I’m currently using a NAD D3020 V2 in my studio setup and I’m considering upgrading to the D3045. I’d love to hear from anyone who has made this switch—was the jump in sound quality and control noticeable? Technically there are improved dynamics, lower noise at ~95–100 dB SNR...

Thanks for the feedback. My room is 3.09 x 3.23m and the speakers are positioned on the sides of the monitor in the middle of the desk against the wall. Yes, I saved the 5010 but started considering also that higher model...

Thanks a lot! I didn’t even know those models existed. The Dali has 70 Hz, so it seems like it would improve the interior design more than the sound. However, the KEF appears to be an improvement, based on the specs...I’ll investigate further. I’m just a bit concerned about the direction...

Hi, Years ago, I've configured a Hi-Fi system (proud off) for my studio. The speakers are hanged to the wall, and had to be very compact and provide as lower frequencies as possible. I remember that, after a lot of browsing and reviews, the Q Acoustics 3010i were the best solution for me. They...

I bought these: 1) Cooidea Upgraded SPDIF Toslink Automatic Switch Digital Optical Switcher £20 2) Automatic SPDIF (Optical/RCA) Audio Switch from this new marketplace and mentioned on Reddit for £88 Of course Amazon has been the first to arrive, so I’ve already tried the first one. It works...

Hi, My actual setup: LG TV with Apple TV (I can manually turn on, handle the volume up and down on the Q Acoustics M20 HD with the Apple TV remote) and WiiM Mini go to the splitter AU-D14 – 4-Way Digital Optical Audio Splitter as input. The splitter optical output goes to the Q Acoustics M20...

Hi, I would like to purchase an integrated amplifier for listening to Music but, cause they're close to the TV, also to be used to watch movies etc. These are my requirements: It doesn't have streaming capabilities (I want to use WiiM for this as already using it in other rooms, so no need of...

The Marantz Stereo 70s is a great option. I am just investigating if it is turning on by itself when the streamer sends audio through optical input. I see it offers Airplay 2 etc., that's great.

Absolutely not fixed and thanks for sharing this, I mentioned the optical input because I read about the TV connect capability offered by that Nad If there are other better amps with a similar price with one optical and one hdmi arc feel free to let me know… I am investigating as well. Thanks!

Hello, I want to replace my Q Acoustics M20 HD because they have only one optical input (using a splitter now) and doesn’t have an auto sense (wake up from standby when a signal is detected). The second is quite a big deal for me, and switching to NAD and a new pair of speakers compatible with...

Hello, I was just wondering if you are aware of nice desk speakers similar to the Nest Audio (https://store.google.com/product/nest_audio?hl=en-GB). I actually have a NAD D 3020v2 with Q Acoustics 3010i. The setup works great, I just wondering if there are smaller passive speakers available in...

Hi, Just a follow up: I am extremely satisfied by the setup. The 3010is are not too big like I was afraid for and the sound is amazing, they also look so good for me in white. Glad I don't have to return anything. The NAD 3020 is amazing like the WiiM Mini. No negative aspects to mention...
