Re: Streaming advice needed.
I've no experience of the Chinese DACs on Ebay, so I can't comment. As far as the streaming content providers go, Tidal HiFi sounds the best, but that's because it's streaming CD spec material. You'd need to have Chrome installed in order to play the higher res material via the web player. Then ther...

Re: Streaming advice needed.
Ant Don't forget that the SB Classic requires another device on the network to perform serving duties (ie another computer, or a NAS). With the SB Touch you could use its embedded server to run it with an attached HDD, provided that your library isn't too large. IME/IMO the SB Touch is the better so...

Re: Latest vinyl 'finds'.
The thing is that it's easy to get seduced by the bits that are good on a record, and lose sight of the recording as a whole. I have fingers crossed for you with respect to Blow By Blow. You said you have the CD - its EQ is correct, and the album hasn't been maltreated in the production mastering su...

Re: Latest vinyl 'finds'.
Which half speed remaster is the "Blow By Blow"? I picked up one of the CBS half speed remasters a while ago(Boston's eponymous album), and the cut is unbelievably good. The EQ, sadly, is wrong - there's no air and space coming across on the pressing. My standard pressing kicks it into the...

Re: CD transport importance.
I've recently purchased a Cambridge CXC transport. The price varies between £250 - £300 at Richer sounds and mine was at the lower price. It's not run in yet but I feel it is a little bit better than the DVD-3910 I was using before. Perhaps I should go back to the DVD-3910 and see if I can tell the...

Re: Latest vinyl 'finds'.
flac.exe does the compression, and Mp3Tag is good for tidying up the tags.

Re: Latest vinyl 'finds'.
The only thing with the files is that they're WAVs, so no tags for Squeezebox use.
It's easy enough to compress them to FLAC and tag them, although it is a pain if you're not familiar with doing it.
