| EMM Labs CDSD / DCC2 - Initial Listening Session A little lesson for all of you today (I am also a frame drum/hand percussion teacher as well).When I say money boys it is to underscore the most uninteresting and least edifying way to approach the audiophile hobby which is to spend as much as pos... | |
| EMM Labs CDSD / DCC2 - Initial Listening Session My experience with the emm gear is with their 8 channel dsd/pcm converter into a genex 9000 fed by a grace preamp and royer ribbon mics and geffel mics.This is 30,000 dollars worth of high end recording gear which I mention ONLY to elicit oohs and... | |

TWL has once more exposed some of the pervasive idiocy that swirls around this hobby and I am grateful for his seemingly endless patience with you nincompoops.I can claim no such predilection for his level of tolerance.The physics stated are there... | |
| Alesis Masterlink as a CD Player? The masterlink is a pro audio tool and does what it does for a price point that has no peers.If trying to get a sub one thousand dollar cdp is your objective there are many choices.Pro audio is a different scene than the audiophile world with reli... | |
