| dCS Scarlatti vs Wadia 931+921 The Meridian isn't even in the same league; quite overhyped imo. | |
| Wadia 170i how to connect? Assuming you have digital inputs on your 861, just use the BNC to RCA adapter you got with your Wadia on the BNC input of the Wadia and use a digital coax RCA cable to connect the two. Then switch the input on the Wadia to coax and you should be set. | |

| Esoteric X-01 power cord I would agree that you most likely need to look at a different source (for example, my Wadia 861se modified by GNSC is exemplary with regard to what you are looking for). | |
| What is the best DAC ever made? We get it. You drank the kool aid. Now let it go. No amount of your denials is going to make the truth about APL disappear. | |

| What is the best DAC ever made? Why anyone would still trust APL after everything that has happened is beyond me. | |
| Burmester 061 + 011 + 911 or 001 + 911 I would think that the second option would likely sound better given that the CDP is superior but why not try both in home and see which one works better for you. | |
| Bidat vs. Perfecwave MSB Playback Design Yes, thankfully. | |
| Digital Stream, Is it to soon to make the switch?? Of course you need to backup. I would recommend that you store your music on a RAID 1 (mirror) array and have a separate hard drive that you perform backups to every couple of weeks. | |
| EMM Labs new XSD1 single box player First review up here:http://www.techradar.com/reviews/audio-visual/hi-fi-and-audio/cd-players-and-recorders/emm-labs-xds1-645292/review?src=rss&attr=reviewhi-fiWhile I'm not a big SACD guy (very limited musical selection and uneven quality), t... | |
| Ayre SPDIF DAC They don't seem to be showing anything new other than the DX-5 universal player with a USB input which is supposed to debut in January 2010. |
