Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

[dminches]

4 x 2 TB. One thing to consider is that larger capacity drives are 30-50% more expensive / TB.

So it is more cost effective to get another Hyper card and additional m.2s.

Yes, unless you are going to run out of space, then you would’ve been better off buying larger drives.

Wow, that must be some “very poor” Korean Audiophile's room.

Wow, that must be...

The Magico factory listening room.

Oh, it was a joke on Esotar, who always tells us how "poor" Korean audiophiles are, with their Extremes and other fantastic devices.

it sounds really really good! what song/track are they playing Emile? I am keen to see how my setup sounds comparatively with the same track. Interesting that the magico listening room is using Pilium monos over a CH setup . those Piliums must really be something! Will they take over all the ch setups in exhibitions nowon i wonder? they are more cost effective in a way haha good for the poor audiophile in korean and in australia

I suggested Shazam as all of the information about the album/artist is available.

SKRUK is a Norwegian choir which has toured all over the country and many parts of the world for more than 35 years with its conductor, Per Oddvar Hildre. It was founded in 1973. The choir has released more than 25 records over the years, all of them at the record label Kirkelig Kulturverksted.

My digital playback chain is complete until Emile and Co. comes up with the next enhancement.

I just added a @Sablon Audio interconnect which runs between my Pacific and preamp. It replaces an Audioquest Earth. Needless to say it is a great addition and it isn’t really broken in.

I have both Sablon and FTA , plan on trying the Shunyata Omega soon , it has great reviews

The Shunyata Omega USB cable I’m using is something special.

I’m having a issue with TAS , I lost my soundstage.
It’s very narrow pretty much center , if I switch to Roon it’s fine . Any Ideas ?

I’ve not experienced anything like that with TAS so far. In every comparison I’ve done between TAS and Roon, TAS always sounds significantly better. Have you tried restarting the TAS player or rebooting the Extreme?

Very puzzling,

Sounds like it’s in mono? Is there any setting in LMS that converts to mono?
