Should I really, really buy a Berkeley Reference DAC...Testify! There are a lot of great and cheaper DAC's that you can buy now a day.

Tube rolling experts!!! I have tried Siemens Cca, Siemens E88CC A frame, Tungsram E88CC, Mullard E88CC Parasol Getter, Tungsram 7DJ8, and Phillips Miniwatt SQ (made in England) in my Modwright Elyse. I like the Phillips the best, great midrange, great base response, and... | |
Bryston vs Modwright? Another recommendation for Modwright. Very musical products and impeccable customer service! | |
Best tube dac available? 1+ for Modwright Elyse. Very musical.Facten, have you tried the Tungsram 7dj8 tubes in your Elyse? If so, how do they sound compared to the Siemens A-frame 6922?Thanks and Merry Christmas! | |
Best DAC for pcm files Modwright Elyse. Fantastic analog sounding and you could tube roll. | |
Cullen Crossover Power Cables I use the Cullen Crossover PC on my CDP. I tortured my wife and daughter with a blinded A/B test between the stock cable and the Cullen Cables. They all agreed that my CDP sounded better with the Cullen cable. | |

some of the best speaker cables under $250 I use Cullen cables and cannot be happier. | |
AQ Earth interconnects..echo? I have Earth interconnects in XLR and RCA configurations. Not a single problem. Very happy with them. | |
Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh? Audioquest4life, how does your Octave Jubilee preamp and McIntosh 2301 combo sound compared to the Jubilee preamp and Jubilee mono's combo that you heard in Germany?Thanks! | |
Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Parasound CD1. I had high expectation for the Parasound, but my cheaper Emotiva ERC-3 sounded better! | |
dCS Puccini built-in preamplifier Lidon,I am interested in your opinion about the Octave HP700. How does it sound compared to Octave 500SE and Jubilee preamp?Thank you! | |
Audioquest Water Thank you very much Ctsooner for finding the answers for us. This is a fun hobby. We get excited when new toys come out. | |
Cullencable: XLR and speaker cables I am sorry to offend Seaslave, I mean Seamaster. I agree with her that the lamp cords would work well in her Bose system!I have compared various cables and Yes, they do sound different. I also found out that the more expensive cables are not neces... |
