    Roon Optimization Guide For Increased Sound Quality

    I have been running Roon core off a desktop with an 800w power supply. Draws significantly more power (to run OS, other apps, background processes, etc.) than I imagine this Nucleus One would. Also you could hardwire this to a router for better connectivity which is difficult to do with a laptop...

    Roon Optimization Guide For Increased Sound Quality

    Preordered one yesterday as my very first Nucleus. I have been running Roon server/core off an old desktop that I keep running all the time, mostly just for Roon. Love the price point here. Much more competitive with building your own NUC but plug and play.

    The New Audio-Technica ATH-TWX7 Is Shipping Now From Audio46

    i have the ATH-TWX9 that i received from japan a year ago and they are some of the better true wireless earbuds i have found. good balance of SQ, audibility (from the other end on voice calls), and noise cancellation. I won't call them epic in any category, but a nice balance of the three areas...

    Questyle CMA18 Portable DAC with Headphone Amplifier

    I have an M15 that I bought when it was first released. No hiss whatsoever when using SE cables on my CF Andromeda 2020. When I switch out to a balanced HP cable with the same IEMs, I do pick up some hiss. USB-C to Samsung S23 Ultra. Stick to SE cables and am very happy with the M15

    Burson Soloist 3X Performance Head/Pre Amp - 8Wpc XLR with MUSE72320 volume control

    I may have had a similar problem. My 3xp would restart after a few minutes and then keep restarting more frequently after that. I reached out to Burson, and they had a try a few different things and ultimately discovered it was a Supercharger power supply issue. They sent me a new SC and...

    The more rigid yoke sounds like an inprovement of build quality by itself.

    Got mine from Adorama today and they were completely brand new. All the boxes and containers were sealed as well as the headphones were in mint condition. Guess I got lucky.

    Cayin HA-3A, a Compact 6V6s Transformer-coupled Tube Amplifier

    I just removed the screw entirely and the old stands and set the amp on top of the new stands (feels very sturdy and won't be going anywhere!). Also had to remove a number of the springs as the amp wasn't heavy enough (I think I left 1 spring per leg section). 2 legs in the back and 1 leg in the...

    Cayin HA-3A, a Compact 6V6s Transformer-coupled Tube Amplifier

    I did take the tubes out first, although not sure it makes any difference. Just make sure the cage is on if the tubes are in place so you don't break anything.

    Cayin HA-3A, a Compact 6V6s Transformer-coupled Tube Amplifier

    I was also struggling with microphonics on my HA-3A (especially when music wasn't playing), even after swapping a number of NOS tubes. I was about to order the same stands as you suggested, but had a pair of these sitting around the house and worked perfectly fine to cancel out the microphonics...

    Andromeda 2020 still relevant in 2023?

    I still rock my Andromeda 2020s that I bought brand new when they were first released. They are my only IEMs and use them on the plane and elsewhere. I still prefer full size cans listening at home though.

    Cayin HA-3A, a Compact 6V6s Transformer-coupled Tube Amplifier

    I listened to the caldera/ha-3a pairing for a while in the zmf room at canjam socal last fall and remember it being really great. But have never listened it with a bliss before.
