Built-in vs. Standalone DACs @drrsutliff Thanks for chiming in. It's good to know that high end manufacturers like Gryphon take the integrated DAC architecture very seriously as is evident by their innovative approach towards powering the module. I remember reading somewhere ... | |
Digital is far better than vinyl @jjss49 and @jerryg123 -- thanks for ’getting’ the joke. I thought the satire was obvious but never expected that this thread would garner 150+ responses. That’s crazy!!! It also shows how many people never bothered to read the subsequent posts be... | |
Digital is far better than vinyl And for god’s sake, I have said multiple times that I don’t think analog is inferior. What’s up with you vinyl guys? So touchy and emotional. Lol | |
Digital is far better than vinyl @laoman please look up satire in the dictionary. Obviously, I was being facetious. Good lord! | |
Digital is far better than vinyl By the way, @bigkidz my system might be modest by your standards but I have heard reference level analog systems many times. We are talking total system cost over $70k. You remind me of those patronizing dealers I’ve encountered in the past. Lol | |
Digital is far better than vinyl Thanks, @thyname I had the exact questions. If dealers are going to jump in, better show some proof when making sweeping generalizations. Regardless, there are a number of folks like lalitk or @ghdprentice who might disagree with the dealer. Th... | |
Digital is far better than vinyl @rvpiano i owned a CA CXN v2 as well. It’s nice piece for the price, but I’m not surprised it doesn’t stand up to your analog rig. | |
Digital is far better than vinyl lol | |
Digital is far better than vinyl @thecarpathian Man, you guys are clueless...🙄 Isn’t that amazing?!? You have posted several times where you clearly spelled out the obvious satire, and how it was not the same as trolling or being clueless. I wonder what’s going on with peopl... | |
Digital is far better than vinyl Good lord! I continue to be amazed at the lack of humor or reading comprehension, or perhaps both, on display here. I thought the absurdity of the ludicrous comparison between the systems was a dead giveaway that this was intended to be satire. Ma... | |
QSA Power Jitter Power Conditioner, anyone tried it? I recently added the QSA Red and definitely heard an improvement in the sound quality. I'm using it on the power cord for my Gigawatt Powerprime power conditioner. I noticed better separation between instruments, a bit more presence/oomph, and def... | |
My first tube integrated: which one to get? I second the recommendation for Fritz speakers. The go exceedingly well with tube amplification. The Fritz Carrera BE has a beautiful beryllium tweeter that IMO is a match made in heaven for tube amps. Quicksilver integrated amp gets my vote. | |
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers @prof did you get the Perspectives upgraded to 2? If so, what are your impressions? | |
Thiel 3.5 vs Klipsch Forte IV Speaker choice @soix -- great find. I heard a Verity speaker system a few years ago and was very impressed. If I was in the market for speakers, I would have jumped on this deal. | |
Digital is far better than vinyl I’m glad many of you got the joke ... but I was also kinda surprised to see how many did not. I thought the irony was quite obvious ... I put very little money and almost zero thought in building the analog system. It would be absurd to think that... |
