Re: Ubiquity AmpliFi HD

Let me clarify.

If you have Källa and another router: get Amplifi HD. Just do it.

Re: Ubiquity AmpliFi HD

Finally managed to find a pair. Distinct improvement in sound quality over my previous Asus RT-AX92U. :)

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises

I don’t understand why, but for me the clips seem to be randomly muted..?

I really value your input! For some reason I found this comparison very difficult.

Re: Superkikkin

Interesting :) I reckon there is no battle needed between superkikkin en the mono Sagatun, right? I will need to compare them again. Last time I did was before the final improvements of Superkikkin. I strongly suspect, though, that Sagatun Mono will remain on top. You should compare to two Superkik...

Re: Volumio and Airplay

I can report that I installed a Hakai -> JBL 308 system at my mothers house last week, using only Spotify and Airplay. I have to say that I found it surprisingly good at higher volumes! I'll try with a Kolektor as a Volume control, but i need to get hold of a decent pair of cables first.

Re: Pre-amplifiers/streamers for my newly acquired Tundra 2.2 Tarandus.

No, it’s a mechanical switch on Superkikkin. Is that better that no switch..? s OK, so here's my take on this: On Boazu there is, instead of switches on the inputs, what I call a mixer - it adds the four inputs together and plays the sum. I borrowed the idea from the legendary amp Au/Ra Z1, an odd ...

Re: Spotify settings for best musical performance

Autoplay When you reach the end of an album, playlist, or selection of songs, Spotify automatically plays similar songs so the music never stops. This is a function of Spotify that I truly enjoy and has led me to some really great music finds. I will keep that one enabled. Sorry for being OT, but I...

Linn has gradually turned into crap since Ivor left. No, they haven't. Very very expensive garbage. But let me rephrase my first statement: Linn is probably still gradually turning into crap.
