Tubes or stick with S/S
mfdamon,I’m  mostly a tube guy. I’ve tried SS separates and intergraded and I always go back to at least output tubes on both my preamp and amp.All the best.JD 
Tubes or stick with S/S
wolf_garcia,”Hey Man”Thanks for putting a smile on my face.  I needed it tonight.JD 
What equipment have you bought this year so far ?
Mostly little stuff. A couple pair of AudioQuest ic’s. A Toslink cable.  I bought a Pro-ject S2 Digital DAC( just got it today, so I can’t say anything yet.)I think that’s about it. I am looking for an  OPPO 105D-205D or the equivalent.  Hope to m... 
Inherited amp
Don’t think this was a kit. Kinda looks like a home project.  Very good workmanship!  Hope you find the builder.JD 
Who uses power conditioning?

Quick Klispch question
big_greg,that’s what I was finding, and I think it will be less expensive to just find a set of used 3’s.Thanks.JD 
Quick Klispch question
Hi Bill,Upgrade kit you say? I just spent the better part of an hour again today on the Klispch website and never found an upgrade kit. Please tell me more, or point me in the correct direction.Thanks in advance.JD 
You must be kidding !
I saw that tomic601, and put my order I for one that does 12” records and the special today is if you buy the 12” one you get one for 45’s for half price! I just couldn’t resist.  Such a deal!JD

Mr. D,All’s good.  I had already done some research but was looking more for incite and thoughts.  Everyone and I mean everyone says  the threes were better. And now the rest of the story.  I have a lead on some two’s and was wondering if it it wa...

Looking for my first DAC
So does anyone know anything about a Pro-Ject Pre Box DS2 Digital. I ended up with one and there seems to be very little on the web about it. The Pre Box S2 is everywhere, but not the DS2. It’s a few years older but has more inputs and outputs as ...

@instlouis,So I was just on PS Audio.com, looking for anything about the I’s-1 or I’s-2 connection and found nothing, not even the cable under Products/cables. I haven’t had a chance to call, do you know?Just curious.JD

Hi lowrider57, I’m hoping to A/B the Box and the Bifrost at the same time for that very reason. I like the Oppo because it plays hdcd and SACD, and I also have a Sony spinner ( can’t remember Model ) that will enter the mix.JD

Thanks daj2832 for starting this thread.I’m eagerly going to read every word on it. I’m starting with an Oppo BDP 93, and am going to work my way up The DAC ladder to a point that is. I just ordered a Pro-Ject Pre Box S2 as my first DAC and an Aud... 
Looking for my first DAC
Hi whitestix, I have two problems with your idea.  The first is that I have the 93 and not the 103. With its age I don’t want to put all my eggs in one basket. The second is if I do the update, I’m stuck with it whether I like it or not. Whereas i...
