    Replacing an SMSL DO100 Pro

    Hello fellow ASR'Rs, I built a system last fall based upon a RPi running Volumio connected by USB to a SMSL DO100 PRO DAC, driving balanced dual Fosi Audio V3 mono's feeding a pair of Paradigm towers. I've been super happy with this solution, lossless Tidal really shows off high resolution...

    Streamer or PC with Roon?

    I started looking at availability in Canada, the Ultra is going to come in at $450 to the door. I understand the convenience of the all in one box, and the rapidly escalating price of strapping on a computer to a DAC, but in the end that's the route I chose. Ended up ordering an SMSL DO100PRO...

    They shipped today, have tracking now.

    Streamer or PC with Roon?

    For the pc, what dac would you use? I'm in the same point right now, pc quickly costs double the Wiim Ultra, but probably more useful.

    Good pairing for the Fosi Audio v3 mono

    Technically this would do it, but would prefer a single box. Looks like the mono's ship in a couple of weeks, and the WiiM Ultra won't be available until almost Christmas. It doesn't have balanced but has everything else, might just have to be patient.

    Fosi Audio V3 Mono Amplifier Review

    Cause of amp death: Greasy sausage fingers.

    Good pairing for the Fosi Audio v3 mono

    Good feedback, thanks. It looks like Chromecast is the unicorn tidbit. It looks like the topping d50 III that amir just reviewed actually comes close. I didn't realize that there are 1/4 inch balanced to XLR cables which is neat. Put away the price ask for a second, is there a way I could...

    Good pairing for the Fosi Audio v3 mono

    Just sprung for the Fosi Audio kickstarter pair of v3 mono's and the 48V/10 amp single power supply. Looking for recommendations for a similarly physically small DAC/streamer/preamp. Ideally it has XLR balanced outputs RCA stereo input Usb input as a DAC Optical in Volume control...

    7Hz x Crinacle Zero:2 IEM Review

    These IEM's are pretty amazing. I upgraded to the TRIPOWIN cable with the inline microphone, instantly by fav headset replacement! Wondering if you've see a wireless equivalent to these? Most of the IEM's you've reviewed are wired. I'm specifically looking for something wireless, with mic. Cheers,

    Stereo DAC/amp with HDMI ARC Support?

    Is this the same amp you bought @fuzzy_logic ? https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-and-measurements-of-sonos-amp.6957/

    Stereo DAC/amp with HDMI ARC Support?

    Your list is about all of them. I'm shopping for the same thing. Looks like the AO300 doesn't support modifying the volume from the TV. The WiiM looks like it does it all but doesn't have much power. In and ideal world I want the WiiM Amp as is, but double the power. I don't think that exists...

    SMSL AO300 but with about double the power?

    Hi @Louie I was asking about the AO300 specifically because of the ARC being the primary audio source. I don't see BTL as an option on the AO300 similar to the A300, but maybe I'm mistaken?

    SMSL AO300 but with about double the power?

    Yes, would like more than the speakers max rating. Was previously driving them with an Onkyo at 75wpc and at high volume they lost clarity. If I can find something in the 150W to 200W range that would be ideal, knowing that normally I'd be driving it in its cleanest bottom 25% range, but enough...
