Well, I've decided to join the club and have an Extreme on order! While I wait, I'm trying to figure out what, if anything, to do with my Rockna Wavedream Signature XLR (that's a mouthful) DAC. While I will be getting the Extreme USB card, Taiko can't optimize their driver for Rockna products...

I haven't tried using the Denali to power my monoblocks since Shunyata recommends plugging the amps into the T2. I will have to try it, since that is probably the source of the improvement I heard. To answer your question, I have not heard any further changes/improvements to SQ since my...

Of course they do but I stopped listening to anything Paul says after I bought their first Perfectwave DAC with the optional bridge that allowed streaming over a network. It was worked OK, but didn't have gapless playback. When I complained, Paul said he didn't know what gapless playback was...

Oops, you're right. Sorry!

Reread his post, the word "physical" isn't in it.

I'm gonna get some gummies and watch that graph for a while! :)

I'm not sure how you declared vinyl the winner... Looks like it's streaming to me (this info is in the article you shared) RankMusic formatsRevenue in 2021 1Streaming$11.5 billion 2Vinyl$1.0 billion 3CD$0.6 billion 4Downloads$0.5 billion Other$1.4 billion Total$15.1 billion

Not if it's from Paul McGowan!

Linn introduced their first Klimax Digital Streamer in 2007 and, while I wouldn't say that Sonos is in the same league, their zone players were using Ethernet a couple of years earlier at least; I started streaming with them in 2005. Given that this is going on 20 years, I'd hardly say that...

yeah, I guess I will. I expect that I'll have some time to listen to the T2 as is before the new power cord shows up, it hasn't shipped yet.

I haven't upgraded them, I went with the stock Farad power cords. That said, like Ken, I have upgraded the stock power cords for my digital devices with Shunyata Venom V14 NR. I can't say that I have heard any difference.

I've only had the T2 for a day, so still running it in with a fan for the next couple of days. It replaced the Typhon QR that I was using with a Denali 6000s/2. I have my monoblocks connected directly to the T2 and my subs connected to the Denali. I have an Everest for my frontend. In the short...

beat ya' - I have currently have 5 ;-) I'm a big fan of these One for my modded Mutec MC3 USB+, 2 for my modded Melco S100, one for Sonore OpticalModule Deluxe and one Orbi satellite

Hi Matt, The Linn has been gone for a couple of months, but from memory, both sound very good and are probably some of the best DACs around. Neither sound digital - there is no digital fatigue with either. Both are very good with microdynamics and imaging and both have very good blackgrounds...

Sorry I took the Rockna off your hands so quickly Scott! BTW, I'm loving it. Regarding using a K50 as server only with a good streamer - I had both the Linn Klimax DSM/2 and then the new Organik Klimax in my system with the K50 and, in both cases, it made no impact on the SQ of either streamer...

And I'll have two Typhon QRs available for sale (both black) if anyone is interested

I just received notice that my T2 will be delivered tomorrow.

Nope. Shunyata was closed last week, so maybe they'll start shipping soon.

Contact Bea at VTL, she'll have the answers and she responds quickly.

When does their switch come out?

You can download the review from Shunyata's homepage

Damn you! Now I'm gonna have to try that!

To clarify, the USB output is better sounding on the K50?

Hi Ken, Did you come to this conclusion using the USB output on the K50 or using one of the digital outputs that go through the reclocker? Chris

If you do post there, please post a link here. Thanks!

According to Shunyata, connecting an Everest to a Typhon QR would be "too much of a good thing" - this is not something we recommend, too many QRBB modules in line with one another. That said, adding a TQR to a Denali 6000/v2 is a fantastic combo. In fact, with the exception of the Everest...

It's been announced - https://shunyata.com/products/power-distributors/reference-line-power-distributors/typhon-t2/ According to a good source at Shunyata "We'll wait for customer, dealer and distributor feedback to confirm this but Caelin thinks the Typhon T2/Denali 6000S v2 combo might end up...

I can't find it either.

Yep, as you probably know, they've been doing this for years with their Klimax electronics
