| Machina Dynamica New Dark Matter CD and Blu Ray tray treatment? I’m well aware. I’m surprised that Tweak1 didn’t make the first post here. He’s posted the identical rave posts on several other threads. | |
| Decided to buy a high-end CDP - Need help inn the last mile! I agree on the Jay’s Audio CDT2 MK2 transport recommendation. I’m sure their CDP-2 player is great. Since you’re in HK, Alvin will ship it direct to you for free. https://www.vinshineaudio.com/product-page/jay-s-audio-cdp-2 | |
| A comparison between two DACs, one R-2R, the other ES 9038-based. Folks sell digital data stream reclockers to reduce or remove jitter. Try one for the digital stream output from your NuPrime CDT-8 Pro transport. That might help clarify how well the two DACs perform when compared.Try shooting a pm to Steve Nugen... | |
| A comparison between two DACs, one R-2R, the other ES 9038-based. The NuPrime CDT-8 Pro transport has a high jitter output (190 psec), which was far higher than my 1996 CAL Delta transport (<50 psec). The CDT-8 transport sounded unremarkable—clearly not superior to the Delta transport—when fed to my Theta DSP... | |

| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic The Teo Audio interconnects improve significantly with in-use conditioning. Other cables will too. You should condition your cables before doing up SM assemblies. You are in for a surprise. Everything in terms of SQ improves when moving from the G... | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in ketchup, per discerning your hearing differences vs environment, go listen to music reproduction in several different environments. That should resolve the hearing differences vs environment differences issue. | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in ketchup, the Positive Feedback pic is of the AI line stage, not the full function (with phono circuit) preamp. There is a reason why AI did this for their line stage. The left+right trim pots control balance and enabling a third pot to control mas... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic One can always pm Teo_Audio (Ken) or taras22 (Taras) and inquire about pricing on their products not listed on the market site. I strongly suspect their prices, risk-free audition period and warranty are the same as list previously on the market s... | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in All the AI Modulus preamps that I have owned (2B, 3A and 3B) have had a dual mono configuration, which included 2 separate volumes pots—one for each channel. So channel balance was adjusted by the two separate channel volume pots being at differen... | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in OP: I have no reservations with any preamp the posters rave about. Go try to listen to them if you can. | |
| Manley Massive Passive I heard a set of Design Acoustics speakers dialed in using a Soundcraftsmen 10-octave band equalizer calibrated to the room using a SPL meter. It was the epitome of tonal neutrality. This was back in the mid-1970’s. | |
| Is shielding necessary on interconnects & speaker cables A lot of cable designers skip the shield in their cables. Teo Audio, Sablon Audio and Acoustic BBQ are at least three brands that fall into this category. They report the SQ as being more lively. | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in Frank makes great gear. He started out modding Dynaco PAT-5 preamps back in the day. You should consider Audible Illusions Modulus 3, 3A or 3B. Great used pricing available on the A’Gon market site for a M3 preamp right now.Here is a link to AI’s ... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Taras22, have you or Ken tried any of your double double IC assemblies with a class D amp? |
