    The Dark Side; Digital audio equipment recommendations and setup.

    Maybe it’s because my DAP only does 8x unfolding, and not the full 16x, But I really can’t hear much of a difference from other high resolution formats. Or, maybe my ears are just lousy and not up to audiophile snuff.

    Well that’s all that really counts as long as you’re happy. Been very happy with the Yamaha, and the bluesound also looks like a great device.

    No, using a USB stick. From what I understand, a networked computer can also be used for Hi-Rez local. I apologize though, I am unsure if using an external HD Is possible.

    It doesn’t do MQA, but the Yamaha WXC-50 is cheaper than the Bluesound.

    U-Turn Turntables - Discussion, questions and advice.

    The Grado black1 still sounds great on my U-Turn table. In fact, It’s done such a great job, that I’m stil in no rush to upgrade to the 8MZ.

    Thank you for taking the time to respond. See the thing is, I was of the understanding that I could possibly switch Styluses without having to do anything else. Referring to the black1 to 8MZ the black1 Has served me very well, and again, I know I have a limited upgrade path. I’m just afraid...

    Grado Cartridges and Stylus - Questions and Advice.

    Referring specifically to the 8MZ. I wanted to know if I had any other upgrade path. Right now, I’m perfectly fine with the Grado Black 1. But in the future, I also want to get better sound and upgrade. Wasn’t sure I had much of an upgrade path

    Grado Cartridges and Stylus - Questions and Advice.
