| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend @f208frank Agree 100%. They sound amazing with the Canor stuff. | |
| Audio companies in the mirror Camelot. Made DACs before people bought them. | |
| Aurender N200 and HQPlayer My Innuos can be made an NAA. I use hqplayer through Roon. I've also used a mini PC, a memory stick. and a USB cable. Sounds great both ways. | |
| Tampa Audio Expo 2025 Thanks for this. I hope we hear from more who were there. I've been a couple times but not this year. I believe it was a new venue? | |
| Is it O.K. To Speculate Re: Company Stability Here? It's a great question. In hobbies with small bases, like audio, speculation affects companies much more. The history and structure of audio companies doesn't help either. These are often under 5 employee operations that a few small hiccups can sin... | |
| Innuos Pulse Incoming On my Pulse I find the USB connection to sound the best. It may depend on the cable you use for each connection though. I have a great digital coax cable and tried many USB cables (all under $300). I liked the Analysis Plus Purple Plus the best. | |
| Do Harbeth speakers really need a 4000 damping factor? I read that "Harbeth likes to demo with Hegel" (and Sugden?) These are 2 very different sounding amps. I've never heard a Hegel I like, even with Harbeth 30's and 7C's. I haven't heard Sugden on Harbeth but I haven't heard an A21SE sound bad o... | |
| Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) Musical Fidelity M6X Dac. Not expensive. I like it better than the T+A Dac 200 I had. It's also the only Dac that uses the Sabre chip that I've really liked. You can get find it online with a return policy from Safe & Sound. Comes in black or ... | |
| ReL Subs: High Level or Low Level connection FYI, I have Anaylsis Plus cables with Speakons for the REL subs. The cables don't work with 2 pairs of spades on my Pass INT-25 (probably the same on your INT-60) due to the plastic protection caps on the speaker terminals. You can run the sub ca... | |
| Is there anything other than a Benchmark DAC? Musical Fidelity M6X DAC. I've listened to quite a few DACs and this is my favorite by a lot. I've owned an MHDT Balanced Pagoda, TEAC NT-505, T+A DAC 200, Chord Qutest. In my system I've tried Chord Hugo TT2, HiFI Rose 150 and 250, Bricasti M3, W... | |
| All in One Solution for Streaming The HiFiRose RS520 linked above sounds great. The interface is not fantastic but it's fine. That or a Naim would be my choices. | |
| Replacement for Shindo I doubt they are going out of business. They are still signing up dealers and sending product to said dealers as far as I know. | |
| Halcro update I had wondered the same! That's an interesting story. I have never heard them before but always wanted to. Thanks for posting. | |
| Questions about Musical Fidelity M5si Integrated Safe & Sound are also dealers. Nice, helpful people. Safe & Sound | |
| Excellent interview with Mark Levinson I'd like to have a C - Wave module that a DAC can plug into! At an affordable price of course! Licensing it to some DAC manufacturers as a filter option would be great...or add it to something like HQ Player as an option. |
