| Power cord recommendation for a dac? Supra is very good for the money. I have their power cord which I didn’t care for their ends as they feel very cheap so off they went. The Supra PC to my ears a little soft or not as open and revealing as my Wywires and Nordost. I also purchased t... | |
| Power cord recommendation for a dac? Wywires Silver Juice II Digital PC. I also use Nordost Vishnu for digital and very open PC which I find has no glare whatsoever. Both great cables but different from each other. Kimber PK14 Gold would be another to read up on. | |
| Bluesound Node 2i , Azur 851n or ... I suspect the 851N sounds better than the Bluesound. I have a Vault 2 running it through the DAC in my 851C and it sounds better than the DAC in the Bluesound. It’s night and day. I bought the Vault for ripping and I very much enjoy it. The DAC in... | |

| Any cable delivers more bass than Cardas Golden Reference? There’s a guy on here that if you tell him your amp and speakers he’ll tell ya what size of automotive jumper cable to use. Sorry... I had to throw that in.I’ve not heard the upper Cardas but I’m sure they are very nice and like any cable it’s per... | |
| Which new amp to get? Also throw out ModWright. | |
| Why a separate DAC? Plain and simple; one box CD players are becoming obsolete as streamers are taking over. I have both a decent digital and analog setup and in my opinion digital has caught up or passed up most analog setups unless you have a lot of money to invest... | |
| Its my first tube! (Preamp) Only tube preamp I’ve owned in that price range that I really enjoyed was a Sonic Frontiers SFL-1. It’s a hybrid with only one tube so easy to play with and tube roll. With the right NOS Mullard it’s a nice pre. I had a ARC LS7 previously and the ... | |
| Anyone can find Owner of AudioPrism US Police will not do anything as they have no authority over these matters. Maybe reach out to a few large US Dealerships directly to see if AudioPrism is still in business or if they are aware of any financial issues with them. Sorry to hear you... | |
| Recommendations for upgrade B&W 800 D3. Plays everything well and you won’t miss the bottom end from your 10T’s. If a little outside your budget look for a used pair. Definitely a speaker worth listening to on your journey. | |
| Bi-Wire Jumpers If you haven’t tried the diagonal configuration on the Nordost link, you should try it; that’s the set up I use and prefer as well. | |
| What equipment upgrades or tweaks will improve the sound of drums? It might just not be in the original mix; so no matter what you upgrade it’s not going to happen. Maybe look into other bands or drummers such as Danny Carey of Tool or other heavy handed drummers. I don’t recall any albums of Elton John having th... | |
