Higher End DACs
Actually 4435 we could not disagree more. There is no law of dimenishing returns in digital until you hit the higher end dacs once you cross $25-35k for a dac and a $15k for a server then you hit that wall where you have to spend a ton more money ...

No Charles it is not a matter of being a jack of all trades, the T+A offers a level of sound quality that is ahead of the Aqua and it should be considering the difference in price.Also if you consider the extra cost of a set of interconnects and a...

4425 The Aurender that would be up to this level of system would be the W20 or the Se version.Pipedreams the Aqua is indeed excellent we sell it, however, the Aqua with the Innous Statement vs the T+A SDV 3100 with the Statement is not comparing a...

Op the T+A transport has been designed to work via its own high speed interface for use with the SDV 3100.Robert Harley was suitably impressed by the combination stating that was the best sound he has ever gotten from an optical disc.  The SDV 310...

Asulfy, actually could not disagree more. The chip or conversion method is just one aspect of what determines sound quality.We have heard superb ladder dac units and superb delta simga and other dacs which are not ladder types.The Esoteric line, t... 
Innuos - New Re-Clocker
Sorry guys it has been a busy couple of weeks. We go in our Phoenix and it does make a Zenith noticably better. The unit is a bit frustrating there is no led's to let you know it is on, nor does it show up as a Phonix, basically the signal just sh...

Yes that is correct, the idea on the preamp version is to simply what many people want, which is to be able to just add an amplifier.If you have a great preamp than you can go with the dac version or how about selling your preamp and applying that... 
New KEF Reference 5 speakers
Yystantabarbera what Fast said is accurate, there are no sales on any other models of the KEF line only the two finishes Rosewood and Walnut are being closed out. As the dealer who helped FAST the OP with his room and getting his system to sound t...

Charles1 dad, When you play at this level all of these dacs are superb it will come down to features, philosophy, and sonic profile.We have chosen the T+A SDV 3100 as our reference dac for a number of reasons:1: T+A is the largest high end electro... 
Why you want upsampling and upconversion in a server and why it sounds way better!
Willrich how are you upampling? What are you using at your Roon Core?Also the PS audio is not going to be the best test bed as it is converting everything to DSD internally.So in the case of the PS audio your results may not mirror ours.With the T...

David Ten hit the DCS vs T+A sound differences perfectly.We have heard many DCS setups and they do tend to be extremely clean and detailed, a lot of air as well. The T+A offers similar levels of clarity, also a huge soundstage, the T+A house sound... 
confused and don't know what to do
Millercarbon, you do know that you are talking to trained Home Theater designer and audiophile correct?Your statements are in fact wrong, the reason a center channel speaker is used, is to create a sense of anchoring the dialog from a point in the... 
confused and don't know what to do
Rbach first we didn’t have your post removed.Second we meant no disrespect to Millercarbon by shortening his handle to Miller.Thirdly,we praised his dedication to two channel audio and commented that we also believe in tweeking up and using all th...

confused and don't know what to do
No Big Greg you were wondering why there was a simple gramatical error.As per do’s and don’ts, everyone has an idea of what do’s and don’t should and shouldn’t be.Again, people are free to read or not read our posts in the case of Rbach most of hi...
