| Is this a scam? Send him an empty box, and give him a tracking number. See if the payment shows up in your account. If it does, send him the real thing. If it doesn't, well.....there you go. | |
| Monstrous power cables If you can’t put a sentence together, or your post is full of typo’s, spelling and/or grammatical errors, I tend to pretty much disregard anything you’re trying to say. Especially when you’ve never even tried the equipment or component in question... | |
| New here and saying HI! Howdy. A lot of good people on this forum. A lot of toolboxes, too. :) You do you, and good luck to you. | |
| Loki vs new streamer and new DAC. Well, I mean if you've unhooked the Loki and you can't tell a difference, I think that's your answer right there. You can always stash it in the closet and play with it another time, after you get used to the new equipment in the room. | |
| Sharing my experience with cables The OP did not use blind testing! His opinions/conclusions are highly suspect! So are yours. I like Synergistic Research cables (and still use some other brands in the mix for power), but like you @lucmichaud1 , certain equipment seems to bene... | |
| Sharing my experience with cables So all cables sound different. How about that. Not only that, but some cables pair up better than others with certain equipment. *GASP* Shocking, I tell you. ;) | |

The results were extremely noticeable, but in the end, I upgraded to a different pair of speakers that were more seemlessly integrated across the whole sound range... | |
| Doge (China to USA) Tariff Yep. I think they’re built to order at this point as well. So you’re going to wait, and then pay through the nose for shipping/import taxes. Maybe should have gone with a CDP. ;) They do come up for sale used every once in a while.... | |
| CD Transports: anything in between? Looks like a winner! Congrats! | |
| CD Transports: anything in between? @swvaaudiofan , I, too, have a Doge 7 tube DAC (the special edition version with tubed XLR outs) on my list. I think they are built to order at this point, though (last I checked was a couple of months ago). I don’t have any real-world experience... | |
| CD Transports: anything in between? @swvaaudiofan , Sorry, see that now. I read right past transport and just thought player. My bad. | |
| CD Transports: anything in between? Accessories4less.com has refurbed Yamaha CD-S2100’s for $1499 (w/ a 3 year warranty). That’s a stupid good price. | |
| CDP under $2K recommendations, please The Yamaha cd-s2100 is on sale (refurb) at Accessories4Less for $1499. That's a stupid good price on a nice CD player. |
