Preamp for McCormack DNA-125 Gold? Budget $2k
I have a similar issue. I have a McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe with Steve's gold upgrade. Ran an Audible Illusions for years and loved it until it fried itself and AI took a year to fix it and only returned it to me after I threatened to turn them in to ...

Thanks Lokie. I will check it out at home after work. Quick look seems like my answer is there. 
Apple TV vs. Mini vs, Sonos
Just a quick FYI. There is a very good article on using the Apple TV as a music server in the July, 2008 newsletter found on the PS Audio web site. I hope this is helpful to those getting started. It pretty much sums up what has been discussed in ... 
Apple TV vs. Mini vs, Sonos
That's the way it's working. I downloaded the Pandora software application from the iTunes store. I already had a Pandora account set up, so the Touch instantly accessed the account. I tune in the station I want to listen to, stick the Touch in th... 
Apple TV vs. Mini vs, Sonos
I like using the Apple TV for a number of reasons. In my main rig where I also have a 60" Sony LCD TV, I can view my photographs from iPhoto as well as YouTube. There are some very cool older TV spots featuring jazz and blues greats. The screen sa... 
Apple TV vs. Mini vs, Sonos
PS: I have a question for the group as well: Has anyone tried to install the Apple TV without hooking it up to a HD television? I bought a second one over the weekend for my second system which dosn't have room for any sort of TV or monitor. Can I... 
Apple TV vs. Mini vs, Sonos
Drubin: I am not sure I understand your question, but here is what I have done and it works fine. The Apple TV comes in two versions, one with a 40GB hard drive and the other with 160. If these capacities are sufficient, you can "sync" the Apple T...

iphone/itouch 2.0 software release
Just got my Touch on Saturday and its great! The best surprise was that there is a newly released application that allows you to access Pandora wirelessly on the Touch. It's not the perfect solution, but by using a docking station for the Touch wi... 
iphone/itouch 2.0 software release
Quick question: Anyone know how to set up an Apple TV using the iPod Touch instead of a HD TV? My second system has no room for a monitor/screen and I am hoping to install an Apple TV using only the Touch.Thanks 
iphone/itouch 2.0 software release
Can someone expand a bit? I have contemplated using an Apple TV in a system that has no room for a screen or monitor. Can I use an iPod Touch to control such a system, and in particular, will I see my album art, playlists etc. on the Touch?I went ... 
Toslink to AT&T ST Conversion
Thanks Don. Audio Authority makes a Toslink to coaxial converter that is sold by Van Alstine audio. I think it is the model 977R. Apparently Toslink and ATT are not compatible, so a converter is required.Thanks for your reply 
Benchmark vs. PS Audio vs. Lavry
Thanks for all the replies. I am leaning toward the Benchmark DAC 1 Pre preamp. Since it has multiple digital inputs, I could attach my Apple TV via Toslink and my Oppo 681H via toslink. Presumably, my cable box also has a coax out. One thing I am...
