PS Audio Direct Stream
I am not given to hyperbole and I stand by what I said :) It was over before it began. I think the EAR has a turbines which is exaggerated and I always thought it lacked a real 3 dimensional portrayal. It is a very pleasant sounding piece of gear ...

Just placed the DSD in my uncles systems and cold out of the box it literally destroyed his EAR Dac4 which has about 4 weeks of run-in. I am impressed and I am not easily impressed with dacs. This thing should really open up with 500 to 1000 hours...

Hi guys I wanted to say it has been real but I may be signing-off f this site for good. Tired of the policy changes and now Agon wants to hold your credit card info (can you say another risk of personal info being stolen). Also fed-up with being c...

Peterayer: I think your question is very very valid. I have never heard that particular table so I have no comment :) I do think (and this is why I chose a 30 year old design) that the height of TT making was in the early 80's; TT's were the epito...

I was able to purchase the last copy of Modern Cool (MOFI) 45 LP from Elusive Disc and it was worth the rather high price I paid. The sonics are what we put all this money in our tables for :) I still have to catch up on some other recommendations...

I saw your table some time ago before we had any interactions (did not know who it belonged to) and thought it looked GREAT!!! and that someone put in a great deal of work and effort to get it to that level. It is a stunning looking table.

Dynavox DynaStation CD player
Thanks Kevinkwann. The Dynastation was one of those rare products that sounded like music. The former importer is also the importer of AMR which I now own, DP777 and PH77 for my SP10 MK3 turntable. I still sometimes miss the sound of the Dynastati... 
Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac?
The polarity issue would take way more time to get into and explain than I have :) Let your ears be the judge, try it oriented in both positions and ponder what you hear :)Just so you know I am not one of those people as it relates to high end who... 
Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac?
Loftarasa; I totally understand that all things don't work in all systems and you are correct, the iTube Mini is on the way and as I understand it, that you unit will sport S.E. and TRUE Balanced inputs and outputs along with multiple inputs. The ... 
Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac?
Hi JazzOnTheHudson, some comparisons have been to Murray James, FIM Gold, Argento (CRAZY EXPESNIVE!!!!) and I always go back to my design. Not sure exactly what you are referring to by "Magnetic Cables". DIY cables can be as good and better than a...
