| CD drive improves HD rip quality? Denon probably has a better laser,i guess it is the same reason why some CDs can be copied with one cd drive, and the other one does not recognize them.Similar with DVD players and PC DDVD drives... | |
| CD drive improves HD rip quality? Hi Mapman, Yes, non music Cds also work fine. I thought exactly the same as you.But then i tried Milenium CD mat on top of the music CD in the drive while ripping.It is just ones and zeros, but the difference is pretty obvious. Then i thought abou... | |
| Best $100 - $200 USB Coverter Hi,I use USB converter sold to me by Agon member Guitarplayer.I think it is excellent.Maybe Tascam is better, i haven't tried it,but this one is very good in my system.My motherboard also has S/P DIF digital out,but the sound is MUCH better with U... | |
| CD drive improves HD rip quality? ""I would like to see a Krell or Levinson type, audio only, USB CD external drive. Something with three beams, designed to specifically rip audio and recover from read errors.""Exactly.Or at least some PC drive that looks at least a bit more serio... | |

| Storing Cd's on Hard Disk I own a PC based system for 2-3 years now.I use Audio Note DAC2 Signature with great results.I do believe that quality of the drive matters.As i understood,data files (made of zeros and ones) are written onto CD surface using the pits,right?I don'... | |

| dCS Elgar plus vs. Delius - confused Yes,Bvdiman,you are right.I was misinformed. Elgar plus only accepts data of diff. sample rates.Has anyone had a chance to audition Verona/Purcell 1394/Elgar plus against P8i or Puccini?I wonder how these would compare to one another.. | |
| dCS Elgar plus vs. Delius - confused Also,i just got the information that Elgar plus is capable of upsampling on its own.What sample rates Elgar plus can upsample to?24/96,24/192 and DSD?If Elgar plus is capable of 24/192 upsampling,then this should give the same result as using a Pu... | |
| dCS Elgar plus vs. Delius - confused Hi everybody, Thanks a lot for your answers.Gtfour45,it does get a little bit complicated.Upgrade after upgrade after upgrade etc.I started searching for a good DAC,and Elgar plus and Delius emerged.I am looking for a DAC with volume control in di... | |
| dCS Elgar plus vs. Delius - confused Hi Gtfour45,Thanks a lot for your very helpfull answer.I am not sure yet is Elgar plus capable of accepting 24bit/192 kHz data?For instance,if someone uses a Purcell in front of Elgar and feeds it 24/192,is Elgar plus able to process it?As i under... | |
| ICE amps need cooling? Koestner is right.These amps should use cooling,if under demand for larger power.My friend noticed this in specs in the datasheet ICE files (page 21 or near).Kijanki is right,too.I believe these amps still can reproduce music with (very) big dynam... | |
