| DAC DIRECT IN TO AMPLIFIER OR TO PREAMPLIFIER I have tried many preamps including Audio Research Ref 6se and Pass Labs XP 22. My MSB Analog DAC sounds better direct to my Pass Labs XA 100.8. Speakers are Wilson Sasha. Preamp adds coloration every time. DAC direct is mo... | |
| Oppo media control. Thank you all. | |
| Oppo media control. Yage: Thank you. mConmect works well but I think it streams to UMT as in Airplay. The original OPPO Media control app used UMT as the streaming device. Also mConnect does not control cd player on UMT like media control | |

| Can we create a consensus list of the TONALITY of different amps/preamps/brands? hoodjem. Pls explain your numerical grading. | |
| What is the proper loudness for listening? Since moving to an apartment I’m restricted to 80 dB. I do not enjoy rock and blues as mush as when I played at 90 dB. However here’s the question . Are we measuring dB as A or C rated values? | |
| Is soundstage DEPTH a myth? Alex/Wavetouch I enjoyed reading your take on the subject. Took some time to get my speakers positioned and room treatment optimised. However there is some truth in your description of modern audiophile recordings and kit. Often I feel I’m... |
