A great balanced R2R ladder DAC: Mhdt Lab Balanced Pagoda I have the MHDT Labs Orchid, which I like very much. I also have an Aqua La Voce S3, which is also NOS R2R, and so far, my favorite DAC that I've tried. Having said that, not all delta sigma DACS suck. I really like the way my TEAC NT-505 strea... | |
A great balanced R2R ladder DAC: Mhdt Lab Balanced Pagoda The Pagoda has a chip - it's the PCM1704 R-2R. However, it's a different kind of chip than delta-sigma DACs. | |

Replace my Marantz AV7702mkII? A good preamp with home theater bypass is the way to go. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Gary Burton / Chick Corea - Crystal Silence. Finished up Light as a Feather before this. The last track - Spain, is an auditory treat. If your system does imaging and soundstage well, it's a nice demo track. | |
Is It Time To Sell My Vinyl Rig? I would put off that ingrown nose hair procedure for a while and keep enjoying the music! | |
Tube pre w/ HT bypass? What's your budget? I have a Modwright LS 100 and while I've changed many components since I've owned it, I've had zero thoughts about replacing it. It's more of a detailed and neutral sound than "warm and smooth". If that's what you're looking... |
