| Berkeley Audio Design - is there a reason why these go up for sale if they are that good i would personally never buy a DAC from a company that doesn’t describe their DAC technology/methods then want 3x the going rate for the product. | |
| Ethernet cables for a digital signal you will not hear anything different - digital signals have error correction - save your money for the analog cable which is audible and lacks error correction. Think about it - you're streaming digital information over the ... | |
| Looking for recommendations for integrated with a more “organic” sound. Rogue Sphinx v3 - phono pre-amp that supports MM&MC - universally regarded as the best budget integrated or step up into Chrono, etc. | |
| Led Zep Fool in the Rain As a massive Zeppelin fan and broad music connoisseurs, this is my favorite Zep song. Granted a more mature me. I think it points directly toward what was coming from Plant's solo work. The drumming is incredible and changes style. The guitar solo... | |
| Gold Note PH-10 with Rega Apheta 3 I have had the PH10 for a couple years and love it. Have you kept yours? What settings have you preferred? I'm planning to get an RP8/Apheta 3 or EAT C-sharp/Jo5 soon. | |
| Does a record player make that much of a difference?? @ossicle2brain @joshindc Ossicle nailed it though I put phono-pre- first. The TT is the least important piece by far - it is simply a rotating platter and if it is isolated decently that is all you need. TTs with built in great isolation do tend t... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC Anyone see a date for the PSA DSD MK2 to have a functioning network system? Minus the streaming it won't mysteriously not perform of course. | |
| I used to think pricey interconnects were snake oil... @hilde45 your perspective is similar to mine - assuming your interconnects and cables are half decent to begin with - the reality is that many are not. Steeply diminishing returns after say $500/m or so. Now a brief rant about digital cables - t... | |
| Best USB cable upgrade for around $1000 You're spending nearly as much on a cable as your DAC is worth...think you have your priorities out of whack and with digital info on a cable you won't hear anything different anyway as it get's decoded after that... | |
| Preview: CODA Technologies new generation number#8 Stereo Amplifier @audiotroy do you know how to tell v1, v2, & v3 apart? | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC Listening review of the MK2 vs. Chord TT2 and PS Audio MK1. Not really worth the effort to consider the MK2 I'm sad to say. The sound was lacking in dynamics, depth, and detail. The sound stage was fine but then again I have nearly full range towe... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @markmuse - same points on simple logic to you - PSA were the ones that said the MK1 Bridge was noisy - send me your email and I'll forward the support note where they said the MK1 Bridge II was noisy. So they regularly ship noisy products but are... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @oczed reading comprehension is taught in grade school. Logic is taught in high school and college. Did you complete any of this schooling? When someone offers a trade-in for a machine with a network streaming ability for the new version that DOE... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @markmise Also, you failed to read si are arguing against facts. Paul McGowan the founder and principal owner of PSA has admitted their documentation isn’t clear. So again what’s up with you? Corporate shill? Fanboy blindness I think. | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @markmuse sorry did you actually make a point that counters my logic? No. you failed to mention if your MK1 had the Bridge. Was it noisy? Why is PSA shopping noisy untested products with useless components inside? |
