| Bitstream DAC won't lock onto CEC transport The only option is toslink and the CEC only offers ST-optical so no luck. | |
| Bitstream DAC won't lock onto CEC transport Yes and he said the DAC should lock on with no problem. Someone told me that a few CEC owners had a problem with the transport and they needed a true 75Ohm cable, the CEC locks onto my AUdio Logic DAC no problem. I am stumped. | |

| older dacs It all depends on the design. A well executed design will probbaly outperform a new unit that sells new for what the older DAC now sells for. Tube versus SS is an age old question. Tubes don't do what SS does. In general, I have found that tubes (... | |
| ARC SP16 or CJ PV14 or AES AE-3? I found the CJ warm, sweet and overall boring.Happy Listening. | |
| PC speakers? Steuspeed, would perfer satelites to work with the existing sub but I am open to additional suggestions.Thank you | |
| Best Upgrade I've ever made Yeah but you have not addressed aC noise yet. That will be the next major upgrade and I don't mean buying a line conditioner.Happy Listening | |
| New dac or cd player I agree with Teajay but remember to get a good digital cable also.Happy Listening. | |
| Arghh Too Many CDP Choices...Help The majority of CDPs you listed are not as good IMHO then the current set up you currently have. Get a different DAC and you will better all of these easily.Happy Listening. | |
| Review: TRL Audio Mirror D1 Signature DA converter Thanks for the review. I would find it hard for this DAC to better an Audio Logic DAC (depending on model and tubes installed). I have had a least 12 DACs in and out of my system and only a few bettered the AL DAC with stock tubes. But I also didn... | |
| Looking for a crystal clear / dynamic tube preamp Many great suggestios above. A few that you may want to consider is the ModWright tube preamp, H-Cat newer version and the ARC LS-25 MKII with the 6H tube. To me, the preamps like the ARC, BAT and I think Joule that use the 6H tubes are less tubis... | |
| Given my AMP and DAC, which preamp? I had the X-250 with an Audio Logic DAC. I tried a ton of other DAC and preamp combinations including the X-1 preamp. The X-1 is one of the best SS preamps on the market. That being said, the X-1 does not sound like a tube preamp. The tube preamps... | |
| Comparison of $11,000 - $15,000 reference speakers The Sonus are to the warmish side of neutral, very sweet sounding, require some juice to come alive but a very magical mid range sound.The Talons are more dynamic, deeper bass, clearer sounding, can play real loud, have better details but not as s... | |
| Richard Gray's 400 Pro = Emperor's New Clothes?? My buddy also has one and we could not hear any difference in his two systems either. Maybe we are all hard of hearing.Happy Listening. | |
| ARC and Audience: Perfect Together? For the used prices, you can mostly try and resell for around what you paid for the Audience cables and cords. I tried the Audience ICs, digital cable and power cords. I found the power cords to have a slight edge in the upper mids, barely noticab... |
