| DAC to match $2-3K CD player We have the Wyred for Sound Dac 2, listened on the weekend to a nearly decade old Classe CDP 1.5 and a brand new Arcam CD 17. Dac 2 through Squeezebox was the best sounding by a very small margin. It's a bit more up front in it's presentation comp... | |
| All vandersteen users ? Thanks, Ig316B, that's a cool idea! We actually ended up leaving the 2ce's right where they are for the TV/blu ray stuff and traded in the 1C's on a used pair of mint Aerial 7 B's that fit the space well and sound fantastic. Problem solved - walle... | |
| What did you own in the 60's? A really neat tomato radio, and a little brown number that had 4"x4"detachable speakers, for stereo separation don'cha know! Didn't hit the good stuff (marantz superscope) till the 70's! | |
| Dac to dvr/tv Thanks, Elizabeth. It is likely too old a DAC to work then. Ah well, time to learn how to sell stuff on Audiogon as my upgradeitis is in full swing!Cathy | |
| Wyred DACS I bit the bullet on this today. Was going to go for the DAC 1, but then decided I might as well be ready for the future and hi res. I'm gonna move my Classe' cap 151 integrated into the sysetm as well and we'll see what the VAndersteen 1C's can do... | |
| Got $1000...how should I spend it? $360 will get you a pair of Kanto ipair5 speakers, that with a ipod, fill a small room very nicely. I use this in a small office setting and am very impressed for the money. Add a Squeezebox or Apple Airport thing and you are all set. Now patience... | |
| Wyred for Sound DAC 2 or Peachtree Nova Face:Is there a sonic difference between the dac1 and the dac2?I am very interested in getting one of these, just not sure which one to go for. | |
| All vandersteen users ? Please indulge me bringing up an old thread. Given, as I state under my system, I need to use my 2ce sigs in my tv setup room, I feel I am wasting the classe amp. I am considering a wyred for sound dac 1 as an upgrade to my listed secondary system... | |
| Wyred DACS Hey Neal: I am really looking forward to your comments! | |
| Best budget speakers for near-field/small space I just set up a pair of Canadian Kantos i pair 5 active speakers tonight in my small office room. Look rather like the Audioengine 5's, but lovely black gloss finish on them. Right out of the box they have a great big sound....I used to have my Bo... | |
| Wyred DACS But , gentlemen and ladies: What is the sound like? Is this something that will enhance my squeezebox and NAD and Vandersteen 1C's to the point where I will definitely want to ditch my old Theta Pro Progency A DAC? I am really wanting to upgrade t... | |
| Can use a Theta DS Pro Basic III as a DAC? We use the Theta Pro Progeny A as a DAC with a Squeezebox, this made a good difference. I would be interested to know what level I would have to hit to see a true upgrade to this? for Example: cambridge dac majic - would this make much of a differ... | |

| Logitech Squeezebox Touch DAC: How Good? I am running my Squeezebox Classic 3 with a new IMAC 10.6 and i must say we notice a difference... things moved up a notch - i'm not saying night and day but a nice upgrade in the sound with things sounding fuller and livelier. | |
