| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-17-15: TheaudiotweakBdp24,Like a visual concoction of Dali the artist not the speaker. Some of these materials and shapes have been exciting at first but over a short period of time prove troubling for mind and body. Always into trying new thin... | |

| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Hey Schubert. I saw from another thread that you are/were in the twin cities. What is MAC? I was at the UM from 1997-2007.Ralph, ironically, my wife and I now reside in Charlotte, NC. | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-17-15: AtmasphereBdp24, the Aurios Pro Bearings I use did get mentioned by me earlier. They work fine.Paul at TRL was on me for years to buy a Scully and let him mod it. I would love to own a tape player but I have young kids and its just not p... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-16-15: DgarretsonI wouldn't conflate golden ears with thin experience in racks and footers. And this is after all a FORUM, not Diogenes the Cynic with lamp and a coronation of one honest man. The thread has becomes thread-bare for lack of compa... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-16-15: Wolf_garciaNUTS…for "the group" (!) excepting Ralph who gets things, I offer this simple possible clarification: I use MY OWN EARS for my ultimate opinions on sound (yeah I know..astonishing), and admit I've never met a Charlotte based e... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD At this point, I am more interested in Matt's speaker/room fiddling. Dacs should be a distant second place. Any updates? | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD 07-15-15: CtsoonerGear, I fully understand. I don't go to shows, or at least I haven't in ages and if I do, it will be to see friends rather than evaluate gear. Would be fun though I'm sure. I agree that I would need to hear in my own system. That... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-14-15: AtmasphereThese ideas are not new BTW!! My Scully LP mastering lathe was built in the late 1940s and employs a special table equipped with adjustable points for feet. On top of that is perched a damping platform that decouples from the t... | |

| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-15-15: Wolf_garciaI've had major dudes from both the recording industry and Audiophilia as neighbors, friends, fellow car, motorcycle, and watch fans, trophy wife collectors, and lawn mower borrowers…and the only opinion I really trust regardin... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-13-15: Wolf_garciaBloating and slurring indeed! I have insisted that musicians I work with (who perform standing up) wear golf shoes (old school steel spiked ones) or step into clown shoes I've nailed to the floor…the golf shoes tear up the sta... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD 07-13-15: CtsoonerI know that Steve is using the XMOS for his new DAC. Gear, I heard the 7's and they just didn't do it for me. Again, there are plenty of digital products that I do like, but I also can't justify the price of some of them as I see... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre That's very funny Tom. Well done.... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD 07-13-15: Bill_kMatt - with all due respect I think you may be referring to the XMOS USB input receiver chip, which is used in many high end DACs including the Bricasti M1. CMOS stands for a Complementary Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor, a technology fo... |
