    Another speaker cable dilemma

    I agree. I was using a 9 gauge 7(9)s copper cable which was great for the start of my audio journey however once I purchased the Monitor gold 200 5G speakers I wanted the best out of the speakers and discovered that OCC copper cables are the way to go if you want a significant improvement, but...

    Denafrips Pontus II vs Pontus II vs Pontus II and a little bit about a RME

    The Pontus II has been on my radar, my question would be does it make you feel gooey and warm inside when you close your eyes and listen?

    iFi - ZEN Streamer - This IS a giant killer

    The software on the Stream is really good. I can no longer hear any audible difference using ROON or Tidal Connect, I think that is praise indeed.

    iFi - ZEN Streamer - This IS a giant killer

    Collected one yesterday. I was previously plugging DAC via usb directly into a Lenovo Yoga Notebook. Very easy to setup, took about 5 minutes. I'm using Tidal Connect and ROON. I found there was about a 2-3 hour burn-in with very minor changes but definitely out the box the bass weight seemed a...

    And I also loved the engraved model names on all the products rather than the a print, gives it a very nice look and feel.  :thumbs:

    Ifi zen dac - Signature - This makes sense now

    So over the weekend I purchased one of these DACs from Francois for my setup 2 and quickly realised it needs to be moved to setup 1. This DAC is sensational. If you are in the market for just a USB DAC you need look no further. The sound is beautifully detailed and neutral sounding, I can see...

    RE-VIEW Corner

    Loving the reviews and seeing the beautiful systems that have been put together  :clap: I agree that a rating system would be welcomed. It would be interesting to know what cable looms the systems are using without opening the door to criticism from those that don't believe that cables make a...

    Matching speakers for Rotel

    I have secondary HiFi with a Rotel and Monitor audio silver setup and am very happy with it. You do need some decent power to get the best out of the bigger monitor speakers so the 991 should be perfect.

    Samsung Q60R - worth the R11k Makro wants?

    I purchased one a few months ago and I'm no TV guru so this is purely from my person experience. For the money I think R11k is worth it. Picture quality is great (again for what you are paying for) I did have to spend a bit of time adjusting the advanced picture setting to the point where I was...

    Tidal buffering on Bluesound Node 2i

    Do you get the 200mps speed when do a speedtest? I have 20mps fibre line using a PC&DAC configuration streaming the Tidal Masters service and have no buffering problems. I use it almost daily so Tidal service shouldn't be the issue probably either a hardware or ISP challenge.

    Valve Audio Exclame 150 SE

    I would just like to give honour where it due. I joined the forum about 2 years ago with very limited knowledge about audiophilia, however I?m a lover of music and really desire to get as close to the musical experience that artist aimed to produce. Browsing the forum I had often come across...
