Fiber is Coming to my neighborhood
@llg98ljk When you talk about the gateway are you referring to the modem?  Did. you use the equipment from AT&T or did you purchase your own?

@thecarpathian Yes it may be wishful thinking.  The guy I spoke with was actually in a repair truck a block from my street.  I figure they are in the know more than a customer service rep. I have had lots of issues with my current provider.  It se...

@soix  It has the full gravity base.  It doesn't have the external power supply but the Preamp will.  The preamp is being built from the ground up.  There is a two or three page review online just google TLC2 GT24 and it comes right up.  It shows ...

My speakers are NX-Otica's with triple threat OB subs from gr research.  I have a SMC TLC2 gt 24 preamp being built and a SMC DNA.5 GT24 amplifier.  The amplifier is single ended but the Pramp has XLR inputs.  I think my budget is around 4K for a ... 
A Review of the Denafrips Pontus Gen 15 DAC
@lynn_olson Thanks for the in depth explanation.  So if you are using this DAC it's best you go with XLR inputs.  If your equipment is single ended you should probably go with something with op-amps In the output stage.  What are your thoughts on ... 
A Review of the Denafrips Pontus Gen 15 DAC
@lynn_olson You where saying that if you are using RCA inputs the DAC only uses half its resistors. Is this not a good thing? A layman like myself would think it’s not.  
Can someone explain the clock sync?
@fthompson251 Since they rebadged the Terminator plus to the Terminator 15th are they going to create a new Terminator plus?  The Terminator plus is still for sale on the website.

@sns  Have you had a chance to listen to a Mojo Audio Dac to compare to the Musetec?  
Streaming from a TV
@mswale I would love to run the signal  thru the  TV on everything but I don't think the signal will be the greatest.  I have an exceptional Smc Audio preamp being built from Scratch.  So it will need to go straight to a DAC or thru a streamer.

@1happyman I actually have an LD OLEED also.  Are you using the DAC in the A8 or do you have an external DAC?

@mahler123 I do have HDMI and eARK.    
Streaming from a TV
I had thought about running Toslink from the TV to a Denafrips DDC like a GAIA and then a nice DAC.  Can you replace a good streamer with a good DDC and not have a great source like a TV or laptop?  
Streaming from a TV
@mapman Thank you for the info on eARK.  I haven't seen any eARK inputs on streamers or DAC's.  I already have a SMc Audio preamp so I need a streamer only or a DAC.   
DAC shopping - Trying to sift through the Hype. Can I trust the reviews these days ??
Lampizator doesn't show pictures of the inside of their equipment.   Are they trying to hide cheap parts or the secret sauce?

What a coincidence LAIV just came out and said they are releasing a DDC.
