The intro of darkos cinematic flare and Randy’s no bullshit ‘what you see is what you get’ style clash perfectly in the intro

@Brian_Romska 8 месяцев назад

I definitely agree, that intro was perfect 😊

@Simon_Hawkshaw 8 месяцев назад

Good to see you both on the same screen. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and perspectives. Good to hear the opinions of such well-respected content creators.

@Corndog642 8 месяцев назад

A couple of points missed here: Schiit’s digital guru, Mike Moffat created Urd because once they figured out the USB output, Mike found Unison to Unison (into their Yggdrasil OG) sounded better than spdf. They also chose that transport mechanism because it’s CD only. It’s not a bd/dvd/cd drive. It’s only for 16/44 CD audio because it’s still a really good format.

@Ambient_Audiophile 8 месяцев назад

@charlier7711 8 месяцев назад

OH MY - two Legends together!! Loving this guys!

@LordWaterBottle 8 месяцев назад

My takeaway from the dvd player video was "Hey, if you already have an old DVD player or something laying around, start using it as a CD transport to see if you even like the format, which you will."

@AG-bp3ll 8 месяцев назад

I'm still using an old Oppo for my CDs, SACDs, and HDCDs. My system isn't really in a range where I need more, but it is a great entry point even for people that might want something fancier down the road.

@elgingaragegym 8 месяцев назад

Randy and Darko! Awesome! Love it. You two need to keep at it and do more stuff like this in the future. Randy Godsmack OMG 😂!!!... John was spot on with his rebuttal to Randy's selections. This was fun and more of this kinda stuff would be fun.

@Cabal97 8 месяцев назад

@JohnScheppler 8 месяцев назад

Great interview and commentary from both of you. The beginning coffee ☕️ intro takes me back to the Between Two Speakers days. Truly awesome!

@peterwolfanger3268 8 месяцев назад

This was really fun to see the two of you together. I loved the coffee making intro! I think the Urd is really cool. I like Schiit’s willingness to bring things to market that interest them, balanced by their pragmatic approach to products continuation in their line-up. I wish the Sol turntable would have been continued and had a chance to evolve.

@anastassiosroumboutsos8288 8 месяцев назад

Wow! Two of my favourite creators into one video. Awesome!

@ChristophBerdi 8 месяцев назад

Great seeing the two of you together; you both inspired me for my current hifi setup and it worked out really fine. Greetings from Germany.

I love this audio co-blab-oration! I spend way too much time watching both of you on YT video but I always learn something from them. Cheers !

@Southfloridelphia 8 месяцев назад

One of the big reasons that clocks are important in the recording world is so that all of your digital devices are working on the same clock. The benefit is so that all of your digital devices are working on the same clock. If different digital devices are working on different clocks that will cause jitter. This is not an issue when you are using a single device for playback. I am not saying that a clock won't help with resolution (I honestly don't know) but the reason they are used in studios is due to measurable issues of differing clocks in different devices.

@MrTgrewell 8 месяцев назад

omg, my favorite two worlds colliding in the best way!

@marcoarispoli 8 месяцев назад

I like very much this format where two competent passionate people share their viewpoint in a very polite and respectful way. We - as consumers of this video - can only benefit of such interaction! I am already following both channels and yet I see a lot of value in this way forward … well done guys! 😊

@chrisjames483 8 месяцев назад

Really cool video. I love both of your channels and watch regularly. You guys should do these videos every so often.

@rafaeldeyavorsky5766 8 месяцев назад

Great to see you both together. Thanks to both for sharing your thoughts and knowledge. Good to hear share opinions from 2 of my favorite youtubers.... Great reunion / conversation

@eddents 8 месяцев назад

Thank you for the very enjoyable video Randy. CAM and Darko (& Steve) bring so much to this hobby / passion. And lowfi & hifi gear makers I would think are grateful to the videos you produce as well, since they stimulate demand. I thought something was "brewing" from both of your last videos, with your slow panning shots and John's coffee intro!

@natediaz6690 8 месяцев назад

The two of you! Just awesome! You guys ROCK!! Like having your 2 best flavors of ice cream! Take care gentleman!!

The crossover I never knew I wanted

@MichaelLivingston-me 8 месяцев назад

I enjoyed the back and forth between the two of you. I've watched and subscribed to both of you for at least a couple of years.. About a month ago I decided I needed a SACD player. I looked around at buying used, searched what others said, and paid particular attention to anywhere I could see the internals. This is what I purchased. Pioneer DV-46AV. I use the COAX output to an external DAC. It sounds great. I listen to some of my music which either of you would likely run away from. Old Jazz and a recent purchase of Anna Lapwood playing pipe organ. There are only certain times where I can use my speakers playing that music. I have two subwoofers. This is the beauty of having a good CD player. No wow/flutter and absolutely no rumble. Great video 👍

@christian2123 8 месяцев назад

This is the collaboration that was unexpected but something we needed! Awesome conversation. I have wondered before as to how a conversation between John and Randy would go. They bring such diverse conversations from every spectrum of price points.

@SMccrate01 8 месяцев назад

Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs did a series of CDs called Under The Covers. Volume 1 is covers of the 60's, Vol. 2 is covers of the 70's and of course Vol. 3 is 80's. All of it VERY good, but I really like their 60's stuff, really well done.

@MaxGolden 8 месяцев назад

I love watching channel mashups like this🎉.

@greganderson1681 8 месяцев назад

Ha! So cool you both got together to chat and talk CDs and audio. I’ve been following you both for a few years, and spent nearly all of 2022 buying nearly everything Randy recommended. My various lower end systems are hugely improved thanks to CAM. And some of the gear, including the Schiit stuff and my WiiM Pro, are helping my primary systems reach their max potential. Regarding music preferences, you guys are always fun. Darko and his Techno fetish and Randy, who likes all kinds of music as long as it’s Metallica! Throw in the Audiophiliac and you’ve got pretty much everything I listen to covered. Great video! And btw, all three Under The Covers CDs by Sweet & Hoffs are excellent!

@skaerber1767 8 месяцев назад

Great video, I really liked how you two were bouncing thoughts and ideas off of each other.

@dragonfly9434 8 месяцев назад

Loved this Randy. Definitely would love to see more collaboration/guest vids.

@karltaras2132 8 месяцев назад

Love how Randy has such a big hifi channel and still talks of NuMetal being some of his favorite music. As a metalcore fan I’d love to be able to try out speakers in a store with stuff I’d listen too at home but isn’t going to happen. I was once in a B&W store and when I told the guy I listen to rock and metal, he said me too and put on Toto!

@frankierodriguez8661 8 месяцев назад

Nice one. I've been a subscriber of Darko audio for a while and I really like his channel. Today I have to say though that whoever was making the coffee at the beginning of the video hasn't a clue about that beautiful beverage. Not only the coffemaker was a piece of crap but the resulting liquid was worst that the water leftovers after the dirty cuttlery rinsing operation. Please, you can be The Cheap Audio Man but brother for God's sake don't be the crappy cup of coffee dude 🙂

@spaminatord 8 месяцев назад

@darkpatches 8 месяцев назад

You can polish, wax on/wax off, any of your coffee parts (like Darko's grinder) that hold coffee grinds with sticky static electricity with dishwashing soap. No sticky.

@mk500 8 месяцев назад

I think the Cheap Audioman just brought out Darko’s best in this video/chat. And I am a big fan of both of you. Cool to see this!

@pdcragin33 8 месяцев назад

I felt that the Unison system was the impetus for the Urd (not the transport); and that the pricing reflects the Schiit management expectation that relatively few units will sell. But a lot of their costs are sunk up front, so the few(er) buyers have to split the fixed costs. Whereas we Magni/Modi buyers have many brethren to share the fixed cost burden.

@danmarjenka6361 8 месяцев назад

Loved the intro comparing John's coffee routine to Randy's coffee routine. Nice.

CD transport vs. CD player defined! … thank-you so much for this thoroughly entertaining video …

@GreybeardMO 8 месяцев назад

Happy to see the two of you working together... Love the idea, love that you're talking schiit, unfortunate that you've selected their not-cheap CD transport :P. Not something I'd ever be interested in. I am a Schiit user, have several of their products, and love them... and looking at a Rekkr to replace an old SMSL amp on my desktop system. Enough to power a pair of Micca RB42's in a desktop environment? I too used Darko's RPi streaming stuff... and I too have switched to Wiim :D
