Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
@veerossi Given the amount of power flowing, the effect of SDFB is definitely strongest on the power amp. And your assessment on directionality of the G-Slug is absolutely correct. The wrong way around it definitely sounds phasey. As value for m... 
Experience up-leveling streaming with USB cables?
@bluethinker USB is a two way protocol, Preventing noise ingress is paramount, hence: the shorter the better. You may also want to chack out Uptone Audio‘s USPCB, which does away with the notion of cable altogether. Intona not only offer superb ...

Question to Mark: am I right that the box results in a 1-2 db transmission loss?  
Auralic Aries G2.1 or Innuos Zenith mk3
@auxinput I‘d be a bit careful about your claim on InnuOS‘ use of DSP. It is directly counter to their minimalist philosophy on CPU power, which by the way leads to superiror sound compared to Roon. In my experience, the clean up of both the in...

@decooney @tkrtrb125    How about the two of you stay on subject rather than slumming it out with at hominem attacks? This forces everyone else to wade through totally unproductive and unpleasant stuff.   Enjoy the music
