Getting around to some RSD's Lost In Translation - Music From The Motion Picture Soundtrack Rhino Records [RR1 725985] - 2024

I've been fine tuning the digital landscape at "Casa De AnthonyI", and recently bid farewell to Audacity for my vinyl backups and bit the bullet on Vinyl Studio Pro ($50). For those who go through this process more than occasionally, and are using Audacity, do yourself a favor and invest the...

Just a PSA on the Denafrips Ares II firmware update......................well worth the time it took to update. Pretty straight forward, not very difficult, instruction were pretty spot on. While I haven't had the DAC long, I have been pushing a lot through it to get a feel for it. It sounded...

Its the same guy who decides to just slap the shipping label on an album and ship it with no box..............should be here Tuesday, I'll report back for verification.

Not sure, could be someone's idea of what a CD pressing that contains more than 1 CD is, lol. We'll find out when it arrives :)

Ok, just ignore the fact it's not vinyl for the moment, still a nice deal ;) The Hits / The B-Sides CD Box Set - $18.00 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000002MNF?psc=1&smid=A3PVPLOX4HG35I&ref_=chk_typ_imgToDp

Ya, I have the Multibit on my desk just for my PC, then I stream to the rig/Ares II to listen on my system. And yep, the Ares II is doing CDT duty as well :)

You know, if I didn't stream from my desk while working this would probably be THE solution, because my listening spot is only 6-7' away from my rig/dac ;)

Thanks, the Digi Bundle looks like the way to go, got it bookmarked while I poke around and make sure it's the Chromecast having issues and not something else.

Ya, like I mentioned, if I was a huge streaming service kind a guy the Node would be an easy choice I think, but since 90% of my streaming is coming from my Plex server I just need a good "stream". I use Spotify basically for research and have digital backups of my albums on the NAS, so it's all...

@Joe Mac, I think way back when you had given me a source for Pi options, I thought I had it saved, but can't seem to find it. Would you have that handy by chance so I can give it a looksy ;)

Thanks for the input, but my run would be too long I think, over 20', so we're going to air on the side of caution and just scrap that idea. If I remember correctly, I think at one point I tried a set of USB over LAN kits that failed miserably. That said, the reason for my question is because I...

Digital gurus, what's the max length of a USB cable before it has issues? I was thinking of going from my Plex server directly to the Ares II instead of streaming to it. I've seen varying results, thought I would consult :)

4 days of the Ares II and it's definitely a sweet spot, hardly what I would consider a compromise as a starting point for a "good" DAC. I can definitely say without hesitation that IF my listening experience ever turns more towards digital, and I mean like in a serious way, the Pontus would come...

The more I listen to the Denafrips the more I'm loving it............I just had to post that, lol

Well that's the thing, you need to be able to draw a line in the sand at some point ;)

Approved :cool:

I think with all of this there's always a few points that will always be "the best" way to go about it. Buy the best you can afford Price should be based on usage Noticeable upgrades, will usually cost you double of what you currently have. (Baring that diamond in the rough Bang for your buck...
