| Advice on a good Digital Coax Cable to run between my Transport and DAC? USB and coax are not the same. The OP is specifically asking about a coax digital cable. | |
| Shunyata X series power cords I tried Alpha X USB cable and while it was very good at detail retrieval and dynamics it is a bit lean and cool for me. I also tried their previous Alpha v2 power cables and observed the same sonic traits. I’d be curious yo hear if their interconn... | |
| Advice on a good Digital Coax Cable to run between my Transport and DAC? I’d also recommend looking into a DAC upgrade. That’s a sweet transport. Needs a dac on the same level. | |
| Advice on a good Digital Coax Cable to run between my Transport and DAC? Jays Audio transports have excellent clocks. You’re most likely creating a bottleneck with the Wyred4Sound Remedy box. All you need is a good digital cable between Jays and the dac. Try Audience, Audioquest or Acoustic Zen MC2 | |
| which power cable and USB cable for my Innous Zenith Mk3? @audiocanada missing few data points what DAC are you using what type of sound are you trying to achieve Are you looking for a more open sound or trying to get a warmer presentation? | |
| Meitner MA3i DAC Review @buzz it looks similar to my linkup cable https://a.co/d/eTGIjAy Good cable for sure but Purist beats it. | |

| Integrated amp for tube lover Pass Labs Int-250 is another contender | |
| Integrated amp for tube lover I had both the CSIB and the Boulder 866 at the same time. Both excellent but different amps. Coda is clear, fast and detailed with great articulation. Boulder 866 is slightly more refined but just as transparent. The 866 is just a tad bit warmer a... | |
| LTA Aero verses Holo May KTE Never heard either one of these but the reviews on May state there’s a brief silence in the beginning of a track if used with USB cable. May be I misunderstood it but worth looking into if you are considering this dac. | |
| Grislybutter anyone? A discussion about an audiogon member who’s MIA turns political. Good old audiogon…. By the way for those who are genuinely curious about @grislybutter can do a member lookup, find him and send him a message. | |
| Network Switches @tshark I don’t doubt switches make a difference. The difference though can be either positive or negative. I have a very good dedicated streamer and a dac with a a tried and true network card. The difference between using a dedicated streamer fee... | |
