Hello everyone! I’m an audio tech enthusiast — fascinated by high-end streaming, audio server setups, and seamless integration with different DACs. After years of tinkering, I’ve learned that good sound is about precision, not luck — I don’t treat configurations like a cazino — every tweak is measured, every cable choice intentional.

One of my most rewarding moments was nailing a perfect 24-bit playback chain across 777 consecutive playback hours without any dropouts — proof that consistent testing and attention to detail make all the difference.

I’m here to dig into topics like UPnP vs Roon, jitter reduction, power supply upgrades, and room acoustics — and to learn from others who share my commitment to audio fidelity. Let’s build great sound — together!
