| Digital Volume Control any good ? Very simple: a unit which isn't there cannot make a degradation to the sound. Any pre ALTERS the sound but does not necessarily make it better! I run my Wadia 27ix directly into McIntosh MC 2000 with breathtaking results. I also have a Burmester 8... | |
| Wadia 581 vs 27ix and 270 I can only say something about 270/27 directly vs preamp. The two pres I have are AudioResearch SP 14 and Burmester 808 MKII. In both cases the Wadias' direct connection to the Poweramp (McIntosh MC 2000) is superior to the chain with a pre. The s... | |
| Wadia owners, what PLC are you you using? I use the PS 300 (with the latest upgrades) for 270/27ix. The different waveforms of "MultiWave" do really benefit different musical material. But PS 300 isn't the latest in PLC, I'm afraid. Works great for me, though.Good luck! | |

| PS Power Plant 300 with Multi Ware and Fan I leave mine on 24/7 and it has NO fan at all! | |
| How is Windows Vista? Rlwainwright: thanx for that nice little compliment! No, I'm not dense as you pleased yourself to name it but there's sometimes a need for just a little push into some direction, esp. since Ejiliu posted he would use iTunes and iPod exclusively. | |

| Any thoughts on the CD "trimmer" I use the "trimmer" for years and I would not want to miss the effect anymore this short procedure has on sound improvement. As said above: some CDs benefit more than others. And played on my Wadia 270 makes the difference bigger than played on my... | |
| Do you know of small speakers that sound ''BIG'' ? Definitely the REVEL GEMs sound much much bigger than they look - and not only bigger they sound but simply wonderfully!! | |

| How to transfer analog sources to iPod I assume you have a Mac? (If not get one asap! :-) ).Try "Audacity" - a nice little freeware proggy which will fit your needs.Good luck! | |

| First Experience w/ Airport Express to HIFI I second the thoughts about the quality of Apple's AirportExpress. I have it installed in my study's system running AE's OUT into Burmester 808's AUX module so I can compare easily to CD direct running into another module. The - wireless - quality... |
