Mojo Audio, Nu-Vista, Spendor

Dedicated power lines feed the hospital grade connectors.

I got Mojo-Audio’s last usb only DAC. (Upgraded the opamps to Staccato.)

Benjamin also built a Linux based i5 32g ram NUC with his Dejavu software and jRiver.

Added a Luminati power supply for the NUC.

Took some doing and ran a cat 6a Ethernet cable to the computer. The Dejavu software has a Qobuz interface.

Dimensions: 15’ × 13’ Medium

Still holds air.
- Diffuser panels / sound absorbing Bought off Amazon
Initially bought 2 diffuser panels and one sound absorber for behind my head.
Set the diffusers on top of chair. The improvement was immediate! 👍👍
Got two more and set them on the floor. Holy cow. Brought out some bass and settle out the highs. 👍👍👍
I pretty much scoffed at room treatments.
No more.

I agree a stand can affect the sound. I would question your outlet set up. Is it just laying on the floor?
