streamer

Hello everyone, First post here (please MODs move my thread elsewhere if chosen section not appropriate) So I'm trying to reorganise my hi-fi listening setup around the sources we most often use around the house. Like for many people, my old setup can play CDs and records but it's blind to the...

Hi, I am new here. Has anyone measured or compared streamers for a Hugo TT2 USB input which I understand is well engineered. I am running an RPi4 with ropieexl out of one of the 4 RPi USB outputs. Got a better power supply for the RPi4 and it does seem to make some difference although I am...

Hi all, Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, feel free to move if so. It's hard considering the question has to do with amps, streamers and turntables. It's also hard because I'm a bit of a noob. I'm currently trying to create a nice entry level-ish setup for the living room based around...

Hi guy, I’m considering getting a stand alone DAC and I’m leaning towards the Pontus II. I’m currently using a Marantz NA6006. I’m looking for the best streaming transport roughly under $1,000 (if I can spend less for the same quality that’s great). I primarily listen to music from an external...

I’ve been running Volumio on an old Pi2b for a couple months now and was getting ready to pull the trigger on the latest offer (3 months free). Unfortunately I see that the Volumio Spotify plugin is now broken. Apparently Spotify shut down some API libraries and at least some of the code needs...

Hi, I’m wondering what would be the ideal setting of gain/volume in the following chain? (1) Node Streamer (coax out to RME) (2) RME ADI-2 (RCA out to Yamaha) (3) Yamaha N-R602 Integrated Amp (to KEF LS50) Currently, my setting is a follows: (1) Node Steamer: volume fix at maximum (0db) (2)...

Hi I'm a newbie to the DACs and streamers. I've subscribed to Tidal Hi-fi plus and would like to stream (not to download) those MQA Hi-Res music to my home gear for listening. After checking for many products that are affordable to me, the followings that can fully decode MQA and have streaming...

Hello ASR, I recently visited a hifi dealership near me to demo the meze elite's. In which the resulting 3 hours I spent there led to a few conclusions made by the sales manager which I will be discussing here. I require assistance from others as I feel his statements directly oppose the...

Hi Gang. Not a frequent poster on ASR, but I'm a forum donor and love the site. I'm listing for sale an Allo DigiOne streamer. For those not familiar, head over to Allo.com to read more, or you can read a review of it that Amir did a couple years back. In short, it attaches to a Raspberry Pi...

https://en.shanling.com/product/407 Nice looking DAC/headphone amp/streamer combo from Shanling. The Schiit Modius with the same AKM AK4493 DAC faired well with @amirm although I know that doesn't suggest this one will score just as well. I don't know anything about the manufacturer, a couple...

Hello forum! I'm finishing up my new project for a stereo system for my living room and I'm going crazy with the last piece of the puzzle: the streamer/DAC/pre-amp. I have an amplifier and a pair of speakers and I am delighted with the set. I need a source to act as a streamer, DAC, and...
