| If Steely Dan had a different vocalist @tony1954 This has already been answered in the discussion. | |
| John Mayall has passed away Laurel Canyon was always my favorite. RIP. Mayall was the launching pad for so many great musicians, there has never been anyone quite like him. | |
| If Steely Dan had a different vocalist @soix I have a handful of their albums, so I am pretty familiar with them. Regardless of how they jazzed up the pop world, their music is still a mile away from what I call avant-garde. My choice of music back then was ultra progressive with band... | |
| Which HDMI cable for I2S? Every I2s cable I have has a different sound. More power to the people who can't hear a difference. | |
| If Steely Dan had a different vocalist It's funny to hear Steely Dan and avant-garde in the same sentence. | |
| Which HDMI cable for I2S? @sls833 Yes, It connects the Gustard U18 to the Gustard X26 PRO. I placed it on my TV first which my wife runs 24/7 to do the break-in. Huge improvement after a couple weeks of that. Great value for I2s. | |
| Upgrading to a stand alone DAC @sls883 I have major amount of absorbers and bass traps in my house of stereo, plus fully carpeted, meaning I prefer Uber detailed equipment. Like no tubes. Been there, done that. Plenty of diffusing too, but the room construction does not react ... | |
| Which HDMI cable for I2S? Try the purist audio hdmi cable at under $300. I use it and it replaced the over $700 tubulus concentus cable without missing a beat. It does require a couple hundred hours of break-in. A bit bright at first and nicely rounded after break-in. | |
| Have you noticed as your system improves? Absolutely, 75 db is pretty much my peak. No need for much more than that once you get your system and room acoustics just right. | |
| Upgrading to a stand alone DAC I'm a Gustard guy. I own two X26 pro and waiting for a new A26. From the reviews you will get more clarity with the A26 than the R26 but with none of the digital brightness of the X26 PRO, which is already at a minimum. The A26 sounds like the bes... | |
| Vibration dampening Iso 200 sub. Zero vibration in my setup. | |
| Dimond Cantilevers And Tip Mass I hate to think about re-tipping a solid diamond stylus/cantilever. | |
| Denarips and Vinshine split @mbmi I looked at the new LAIV dac. It seems to me there will be a need for improvements in the design before I would even consider it. First, it has no AES input and that kind of hurts when you have 1k AES cable with nowhere to go. And most imp... | |
| Denarips and Vinshine split I tried the Ares II and sold it pretty quickly. In my room acoustics, r2r just doesn't do it for me. And I never wanted to go up the Denafrips latter because of their lack of remote. However Alvin is a great guy and I wish him the best with this u... | |
