Well I only have one pair of headphones maybe worth showing as I've only just got into private listening (all be it with open backs) with hifi. I've used and use all sorts of cheap beer stained moth bitten cans as djay monitors but only for mixing, usually with one over ear and the other swept...

Normally Spot on 👍 (Im guessing like me you missed the bit about its a independently powered hub) The EXN is geared to host "a powered hub" without merging, and as you correctly said very few streamers can recognise multiple separate flash drives and even the ones that can would be in awe at 7...

Oh genuinely thanks "Jasonovich" 👍 I say that with a little warm smile 😊 as I age the card count dwindles as extended family succumb to age making me a tad melancholy, people don't seem to realise how little things like this make a difference, so I will say it- "That really helped make my...

Well I can tell you that I've had a few Cambridge audio amps over the yrs but none twinned to the large Fynes. I was going to write a more detailed passage on the 4 amps I've had hooked up to mine so far, but it sprang straight to mind the blunders people have made getting speakers they haven't...

Absolutely 👍 -But- I mean this with both sympathetic and empathetic sentiment, but save yourself from further going on a quest to find something to falsely justify a bad decision in audio whilst in buyers remorse, it never works even with the most tinted pair of rose coloured sun glasses and...

Been busy so offline since the post but 👍 "ne botha" as we say up here. I had wrote a longer message with advice thinking you'd already bought the speakers as indicated in the threads beginning but if you haven't then your option is now becoming clear, if you truly liked them you would of known...

First off I couldn't comment and won't on gear I haven't heard it's safer that way 😂 But inline with the comments a room is a huge factor usually never factored into a Hifi budget but in your case your comparing speakers in the same room so that's something you can sideline. Speaker placement...

The Fyne audio F501's are what impressed me the most in the small floorstanders category lately, that much I ended demoing then coming home with their bigger brother after they sparked my interest, if you could get a demo of them I find they live up to their various acclaim and then some...

Having to proofread everything you say before sending because of circling trolls and always having to add "IMO or to my ears etc" when it's absolutely obvious in its written context

Please don't think im being obnoxious but there's it's a common thing to ask advice on choosing speakers etc and while it's always polite to indulge onto you our personal opinions, what must come with that is the realisation that you need to pick your speakers within your own preferences and...

Also spot on Don't mean to be an echo but Graphs and specs will only get you so far, the former graphs I've found to be of no use for anything to the consumer. Specifications on the other hand are a must in weeding out the obviously unsuitable ie a 45 watt speaker wouldn't be enough for loud...

Bang on If you can't demo them walk past and try something you can, especially when spending big never buy blind/deaf it's inviting problems.

I've touched on my introduction to hifi it a few times, so in view of (trying 😊) not to bore you as with many of the members I've had all sorts from a kid. From the joint farther, son hobby in repairing bootsale HIFI's coincidentally around the time people where getting rid of quality hifi for...

😎

Erm 😂 "Et tu brute" Only recently I must to admit I swapped a worryingly thin, but fine free digital coxail that came with the Marantz knowing the on/off nature of digital holistically doesn't respond near as much as analogue to cable differences, swapping to the overly thick hard to bend but...
