| Old Digital vs New digital. New is not always better than old.Much more to good design than bit rate and upsampling.Not all agree that upsamling is so fantastic anyway.A good design is a good design,period.I use a MLevinson 37/36s,good CDP.Chris | |
| Tube magic in solid state? Perhaps the most convenient way is to go for Tube pre and ss or hybrid power.A Hybrid integrated also worth a look.Best of both worlds ? | |

| DAC that beat Mark levinson 360s ?? Winsound.I own a ML 37 and 36s.What I would do is to keep the 360s and get a 31 or 31.5 Transport.If you sell the 37 and take the $3000 you are willing to spend onthe DAC you should have enough for a used 31 or 31.5.To change the 360s to get 24/19... | |
