| Bryston Bdp3 Upgade Although its software is overdue for an update, the BDP-3 is a great player. What about it are you seeking to upgrade? If it's just the software, you might try using Rigelian on an iPad. | |
| Balanced vs RCA preamps atmasphere The reason to use a balanced connection should be to eliminate ground loops and cable artifact. I'd argue that noise reduction is the primary benefit of truly balanced circuits, which can offer high CMMR. A proper (AES48) bal... | |
