    Grimm MU1 vs Aurender N30SA vs Taiko Audio

    Hello, can you clarify please? The N30SA performed at 15 % while the Extreme was 100%? And the Grimm was then below 0%? Thanks.

    Grimm MU-1 server review - A new force in digital source?

    Hi, so I think this has been answered, but YES, if I disconnect my Grimm AES from my DAC my other Roon Endpoint still sees Roon Core on my MU1.

    Grimm MU-1 server review - A new force in digital source?

    I understand. I think it will not be an issue as the Core functionality exists over the ethernet. But, easy enough for me to disconnect my AES out of the Grimm and see if my other endpoint functions as it should.... I will do this tonight.

    Neutral power amp recommendations?

    Hi Vermaxis! Some great knowledge and advice here. I love my Audionet, and have a pair of MAX's and a pair of Heisenbergs. Neutral: check. Very revealing while being full bodied Cold or Analytical: Not if you are careful with great DAC and great cabling. All copper works very well...

    Dedicated Modem

    Hello Frankie67, (this does not exactly respond to your question) This is what the Switch X does. Except it creates a new local network within your original network. It does not require a new internet service, and is no different than splitting it off just outside of your home (I think). It...

    Cable Modems

    Grimm MU1 vs Aurender N30SA vs Taiko Audio
