    Focal Celestee Review & Measurements

    Question to people who heard these ones - is it a good idea to switch from Z1R to these? Looking for much better comfort (specially when its hot outside), less bass, more emphasis on trebles and better sound stage. Good / bad or better go for Stellia?

    iFi audio’s Ask-Me-Anything thread: Thorsten Loesch

    I have question regarding proper Roon support with ifi idsd pro and possibly other devices. Current bridge solution is simply not for everyone (Windows only) and just feels like shortcut. Do you plan to make ifi devices Roon compatible?

    iFi audio Pro iDSD (Official) - NEW Firmware - MQA and more.

    @Sphere 57 - I'm using Baby Ambre and Ambre for Roon with iDSD PRO and both are really good. You can use any Raspberry PI audio software to change them into any type of streamer you prefer if Roon is not the good option for you. If you need any more details - PM me.

    I've been using PI+JustBoom DIGI HAT as my Roon client but then upgraded to Baby Ambre and finally to Ambre.

    Astell&Kern KANN CUBE

    I used to have SR15 then moved to Kann Cube but really this was too big for me. I biz travel a lot. And then - moved to SP1000M. Perfect sound and best size to battery/screen ratio. Not to mention that its SQ is better. Go for this, you will not regret.

    Thanks again. So far with my systems I found SPDIF coaxial connection better then USB but I assume that this could be really connected with poor quality of my USB sources.
