Your last concert was to see who and when? I kicked off my 2015 concert season with Mike and the Mechanics last evening. The band came out smoking and only got better as the evening wore on. I'm very glad they came to town. If you have a chance to see them, they will not disappoint.Great s... | |
Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC My main reason to state my displeasure with PSA was not the quality of sound,but with their pricing scheme.

Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC The PSA DS dac does not start to bloom into a music machine until a minimum of three to four hundred hours. I now have around 550 hours on mine and it still amazes me as to how much more I am hearing from this dac. The pike peak OS is a stunning u... | |
Recommendations for a mat for the PS Audio PWT There is no logical reason for using any after market mat on the PWT. It reads from a memory drive and not real time.
