| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD 07-13-15: MattnshilpAgear - What is the Golden Gate's best input? Does it use the CMOS chip for USB? I think many agree that one of the big Lampy drawbacks was its less then stellar usb input performance. Has that been corrected with the GG or is ... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-12-15: 1extremeSome of the posts in response to the OP really suck. When someone posts their impressions that they have personally perceived and they do so in an honest, sincere manner, it is wrong to call what they are experiencing "garbage". ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD 07-12-15: CtsoonerI have and love the OSDE/SE. I run them on the Treo's and Ayre AX 5 Twenty. I get all emotion when it's there, but it's not even close to vinyl. I've heard most of these DACS in my system except for the Lamp...I personally have h... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I agree with George and Al 100% about MSBs approach (and Totaldac for that matter). It seems to be the optimal approach for PCM.

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD 07-11-15: MattnshilpI've had a crazy amount of speakers going through the room and seam to be narrowing it down nicely. My issue is that the pair I really really emotionally bond with are crazy expensive and the pair I'm comparing them with (which... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre 07-11-15: TbgWolf_garcia, I'm sorry but about ten years ago, I gave up on all soft or rubberized feet as well as all wood feet. They all lack all prat or toe tapping to the music. There was no leading edge on percussion and certainly no trailing e... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Here is an interesting vignette shared by a friend of mine: a speaker manufacturer has a young autistic son. His son would typically play in the room while Dad was fiddling and voicing the speakers. He used master tape, vinyl, and vinyl rips to di... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I've had music lovers (and musicians) question this hobby. I get it. Its a razor's edge when it comes to the balance between music and sonics and equipment. Its easy to become a sound whore and drift away from that first love of music. This and ot... | |
