I've got 8 Cosmograf albums in my library - All good :L3000:

Congrats on the Aegis, she's a beauty - I had a good drool look in the Aegis thread :darthsmile:

Qobuz > roon > HoloAudio Cyan II > Violectric V222 > Denon AH-D7200 :L3000: A Game Of Whispers (2024) by Age of Distraction - Debut album by a new British band released on Friday and so far tonight I've played it five times - I like it a lot! They are a prog/melodic metal band and seem to...

Found this one on facebook, A Game of Whispers by Age of Distraction. They are a new British prog/melodic metal band that show a LOT of promise and this album definitely does not sound like a debut, it's way too polished - well worth a good listen, it's on Qobuz, so likely on the competition and...

Qobuz > roon > HoloAudio Cyan II > Violectric V222 > Sennheiser HD800S :thumbsup::thumbsup: Mid Spiral: Growth (2024) by BADBADNOTGOOD - The third part of their staggered release of the Mid Spiral sequence of EP's. The Cyan II, V222 and HD800S are all working their butts off with this EP and...

It's an original Vali 2 and it has served me well for years but from what I'm reading the Vali 3 should be a marked improvement plus it will blend in with the rest of my system.

I have a perfect Vali 3 sized space next to my V222 and as I can't really use my Vali 2 there as it's silver (everything else is black), I might just treat myself to a nice black Vali 3. I've been putting it off as several of my headphones are XLR terminated but after searching all over the...

Qobuz > roon > HoloAudio Cyan II > Violectric V222 > Grado RS-1x :L3000: Ship to Shore (2024) by Richard Thompson - A new Richard Thompson album makes for a happy me, I've been a big fan ever since the early days in Fairport Convention, he has such a unique sound, totally unmistakeable. This...

Well I've favourited it now so fingers crossed it appears on roon Once I restarted roon and refreshed the connection with Qobuz the album appeared - Playing it now :)

that works, is that listening via Qobuz US? - didn't know I could do that :D

I just re-checked on Qobuz UK and it still isn't there, under name or album title, which is ridiculous considering she lives in the UK

Not on Qobuz yet but I know her voice well from iamthemorning - hopefully it appears soon, there are a few tracks released as singles but no album

I just finished installing mine and even after a few minutes I'm blown away and I haven't even tried upsampling yet. Coming from a 9038 pro powered SMSL SU9 the soundstage, imaging and timbre are all at another level - well worth the four week wait. Just letting it warm up now as I'll no doubt...

roon > HoloAudio Cyan II > Violectric V222 > Sennheiser HD800S Lakesongs of Elbid (2024) by Albion - I had to pick a first album to play on the new DAC and my favourite new album of the year seemed like a good choice. As for the DAC, I can't stop grinning, it's everything I hoped for and then...

roon > SMSL SU9 > Violectric V222 > Grado SR325x :L3000: The Best of James Gang (1998) by James Gang - No new DAC for me today as the Post Office decided that Royal Mail 24 should actually be called Royal Mail 54, they must have liked the Cyan II so much they wanted to keep it in London for...

I'd be lying if I said you hadn't been influential in me taking the jump to NOS R2R and the Cyan II popped up with exactly what I want for a very reasonable price - my wallet didn't even hesitate :darthsmile:

Qobuz > roon > SMSL SU9 > Violectric V222 > Sennheiser HD800S :L3000: Sea Change (2002) by Beck - Giving my SMSL SU9 DAC a last run before it gets replaced with the Holo Audio Cyan II NOS R2R DAC tomorrow, as long as nothing goes wrong, the postman finds the right house, waits long enough for...

roon radio came up with this gem today, Runaway Men by Galaxy. They are/were a Dutch band that never really got going but recorded this album back in 1997 but it's taken until 2022 to get it mixed and released. The lead singer is the vocalist on recent Kayak albums, Bart Schwertmann and he has...

roon > SMSL SU9 > Violectric V222 > Sennheiser HD800S :thumbsup::thumbsup: Where Do You Want Ghosts To Reside? (2020) by Fren - Still playing Fren and still loving the music. This is their first album and it's just as good as the one I played last night, some superb guitar work that Gilmour...

roon > SMSL SU9 > Violectric V222 > Grado RS-1x :musical_note::musical_note::musical_note::L3000::musical_note::musical_note::musical_note: All The Pretty Days (2022) by Fren - Fren are a Polish instrumental prog band I found thanks to @Arum16 and this album just blew me away, so much so that...

This has just blown me away, so much so I just went on Bandcamp and bought their discography, just two albums and a couple of singles but the price was crazy low - would have been rude not to :darthsmile:

Qobuz > roon > SMSL SU9 > Violectric V222 > Denon AH-D7200 :L3000: Baker's Dozen (2023) by All Them Witches - A compilation album of thirteen singles the band released through 2022. Based in Nashville the band's music is a blend of hard rock, stoner rock, psychedelia, folk and blues with...

been listening to it since @YtseJamer posted it in another thread a couple of days ago - Excellent album, one of the best this year.

Qobuz > roon > SMSL SU9 > Violectric V222 > Sennheiser HD800S :L3000: The Corrupted Lullaby (2018) by Seventh Dimension - A Swedish prog-metal (melodic too) band I found on roon radio using Teramaze as a seed. This, their third album (of four), is a 2hr 7min epic of a concept album and as a...

The Corrupted Lullaby (2018) by Seventh Dimension - discovered on roon radio using Teramaze as a seed. Swedish prog-metal with a touch of Kincrow and a large dollop of Dream Theater.
