Buy a USB DAC with headphone amplifier

That also saves you from having to replug unplug your headphones. And also allows you to use more demanding headphones.

For the m50w, there is an audio port on the control knob that allows u to plug ur headphones in. I think if you press on it, it will switch to headphones, not so sure on this.

Yea LSR310S is probably the best match for the same company's speakers

But take note that this sub probably only matches the same company's speakers well. It has pretty much no crossover frequency adjustment.

Luthermusic, Performance audio

I asked luther music back in nov 2017, they mentioned they are bringing in on dec 2017 in lazada. But that nvr happened.

I check around and saw sonic sound audio selling at $649 on website. But they told me thats export set and its OOS. Warrantied set are at $759. And they can pricematch to luther music's price of $690. Makes me wonder would they even PI this sub in the first place or trying to cheat me nia.

I also checked with JBL lazada and they mentioned they are not bringing in LSR series anymore.

Maybe cos there's an updated version now:

But there doesnt seem to be any change for the subwoofer.

Hi Guys, trying to look for a music streaming system for my study room. Was thinking about the naim muso initially but scared not worth for the long term, anything spoil whole system gone. Any recommendations for a budget of $1.5k to $2k?
Thanks beforehand.

OOT but I find music not good for studying. Especially if too high quality. Too distracting. If I get really bored I will usually play some instrumentals at most.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Any difference e.g. sound quality using chromecast audio than compared with a streamer like bluesound node?

If you wanna use bluesound node's tidal then sound quality have different,actually chromecast spofity should be good enough if really want quailty have hdd .wav or cd still better...anyways cyrus one is quite powerful if you next time think of playing home theater you could still use back the unit as a power amp for your left and right channel as there is av bypass rca at the back so is a more future proof and can serve you as a streamer as well that's is with chromecast connected....if you are thinking of Bluesound Node 2 which does have a speaker output it will serve it's purpose as a streamer but there isn't alot of ports at the back u are limited to future add on
