| Benchmark DAC-1 vs. Bel Canto DAC-2 Before I decided to purchase a non-os DAC (Audio Mirror at half the price and twice the performance of either of these) the Benchmark was my choice and I did listen to the Bel Canto as well. The Benchmark was smoother in many respects and I got to... | |
| Are most DAC's compatible w computers? Perhaps this is getting off the topic, but all I want to accomplish is sending WAV or FLAC files from my computer to my Alesis ML9600 HD. I download a lot of digital soundboards and instead of burning them to a CD then playing or uploading them on... | |
| WBT vs Eichmann I purchased the WBT Nextgen connector with the VH Audio Pulsar digital cable and it exhibits no brittleness at all. I do agree that the ease-of-use of WBTs leaves something to be desired, but I'll live with it for now. | |
| Dedicate Cd player help You should check out the TRL Sony 595. For about $700 you'll get a very musical CD. Check out the thread about it here and the 6moons review. | |
| Warmest solid-state integrated for under $2k The Vincent line is available in the states, but not extensively. I know that Audio Unlimited in Denver, CO carries the line and they are high on them considering the price. I have done business with this dealer when I lived in Denver so I can vou... | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? 711smilin,I cannot proclaim to be an expert on the TRL Sony 595 because I do not own one. However, your claims that TRL uses fairy paste might be a bit exaggerated don't you think?I had extensive conversations with Paul about the mods done to my A... | |
| Cary Preamps Linnlp12,What brand of teflon caps did you install? Also, what tubes are you using? | |
| Cary Preamps I second the SLP-98. I just bought one and have had no problems with it. I own a few Cary components and find them to be high quality. The suggestion for AES is a good one. Also, these are rare, but the N.E.W. P-3 is a consideration. I traded mine... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 audioezra,The Alesis ML9600 is humming along and gets better every day. Thanks so much for providing me the opportunity to own one of the best products I have ever purchased and introducing me to the TRL family. I am planning on having Paul mod my... | |
| Cable confusion I second the Pulsar ICs from VH Audio. I purchased one as a digital connection from my transport to my DAC. I splurged on the WBT silver connectors but if you stick to the Eichmann connectors the price is extremely reasonable. I also purchased a F... | |
| Cable confusion I just purchased a pair of Alpha Core Goertz MI-2 Veracity speaker cables. They are still breaking in but even out of the box they sound very good. Considering the price was about $300 for the pair new, it is a great value. 30 day money back guara... | |
| Need advice on speaker cables I decided to purchase the Alpha Core Python Hybrid bi-wire and MI-2 Veracity. Right now the Veracity is in and it sounds pretty good out of the box. I'm interested to see how it sounds after a couple of days. Interesting that the RC Zobel Network ... | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? 711smilin,Thanks for the response. I won't go wiith a one box as I'm really happy with the sound of my non-oversampling DAC. I will send Alex a note on this though as it looks like a nice rig. | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? 711smilin,This from the APL site:Denon 3910/EMM Labs Digital Transport now available (includes Denon 3910, price $3500).This is what I am interested in. Do you know about this unit? | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? 711smilin,Sorry, my mitake. Looking at it again it's the 3910 transport that is $3500. However, I'd be interested in this as my TRL mod is the Alesis ML9600 which I use as a transport. Do you know anything about the 3910 transport?As for the APL 5... |
