| Jeff Rowland Aeris DAC : my experience The article was on Wizard High-End Audio Blog.I say "was" because it seems the author has removed it. Its still in my RSS reader cache though.Ive always had a hard time knowing with Jeff Rowland how much is real product design and what is marketin... | |
| Jeff Rowland Aeris DAC : my experience I read an article which slammed the Corus Linestage for being a terribly built product and basically a marketing sham.Lundahl Line transformers used to make a balanced design and a cheap PSU. Just saying :) | |
| Bow Technologies ZZ8 DAC, Impressions ? Would love your review :) | |

| Accuphase voltage conversion 110/120 to 230 VAC Anyone ? :) | |
| Esoteric K03 Oh so if i have a problem with my MPS5 i should contact every component manufacturer in the player ? Really ? What kind of logic is that ????Its Playback Designs responsibility to support and all the elements of their product. | |
| Best Sounding CD / SACD player under 15K I second the Wadia S7i | |
| Esoteric K03 Fplanner,you think i just sat on my a$$ complaining for 6 months ? i guess you didn't read my posts. | |
