| Seeking DAC $300 I listened to the ifi IDac at the Axpona Show in Chicago last weekend over headphones using the ifi iCan headphone amp and ifi iUSBPower. I will only say this... it was very very good. I am purchasing the dac and a second iUSBPower for my bedroom ... | |
| what is the best amp you've ever heard Graaf GM200 | |
| New Graaf solid state amps are out Yes:) my source tells me that there is a new mono-block OTL amplifier coming down the pike as well as some other goodies. I think the mono amps are 200w OTL units. A very special preamp should follow the GM 400. I agree with you about the GM 200, ... | |
| New Graaf solid state amps are out I have heard from people within Graaf that the unit (GM 400) sounds remarklably like the GM 200 and GM 20 combined both of which I own (I have the Modena variant of the GM 20). I am in line for the GM 400 when it is available. As you can tell I ha... | |
| Dynavox DynaStation CD player Djdonis; I could infer from your tone, that you probably never ever heard the unit let alone saw one in real life (now perhaps you did, but knowing its sound and reading your tone..,).., etcThe reason was the Chinese.... They copied the unit to th... | |
| Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac? I have owned the Octave and used it with the Cynosure USB cable (which I owned at the time) and the Diverter HR (which I owned at the time) the BEST USB-->SPDIF converter I have ever heard.., along with that I installed the AMR fuse in the Octa... | |
| DAC Accustics Art - Ayon CD5S - AMR DAP 777 Aggielaw: The dynex part was beat by the new ifi iUSBPower clean power conditioner for USB. It was no contest. Easily the best $200.00 I have spent on a product for my system. | |
| Sonicweld Diverter HR, etc... Not missing anything :) as i've previously mentioned that I owned the Sonicweld Diverter HR which is asynchronous; as well as other asynch converters. The HR with the Octave was some of the best sound to which I've been exposed.My AMR Dac currentl... | |
| Sonicweld Diverter HR, etc... Steve I do not disagree with you. What you have stated in no disagrees with anything I wrote (or vice versa). I did not discuss jitter (too many people blame bad sound on jitter anyway). I simply stated that one of the best sounding USB/SPDIF conv... | |
| Sonicweld Diverter HR, etc... The alogorythm does in fact make a huge difference and the BADA USB does is in fact re-packaged Streamlength tech which Wavelength purchased from the original developer of the code (not that there is anything wrong with that). This whole "as long ... | |
| Upgrade from Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE Merlin: Glad you are enjoying your system. I just wanted to make clear that I did not say "Bat" in general had the characteristics I discussed. I spoke specifically of the unit I had :) the Bat Rex. I can not speak to the VK-52SE :) | |
| Sonicweld Diverter HR, etc... Find an original FIM gold or Silver and never look back! Nothing and I mean NOTHING I ever tried regardless of cost was able to beat that thing. I will say that the top of the line Synergistic digital cables are VERY VERY good as well. | |
| Upgrade from Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE Black528:This was just an idea, their are of course more cost effective ways to get there. You could even simply try cables that are known to impart a warmer more full bodied signature. | |
| Upgrade from Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE Black528:See:http://www.soundstage.com/rise17.htm | |
| Upgrade from Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE Black528: I meant to write "tubed-interconnect" and yes it is exactly what it sounds like. The interconnect goes to a box which will have typically a couple of small triodes in the path. Exiting the box will be another set of interconnects. This w... |
