Review: Benchmark DAC1 DA converter Kevziek: Thanks for the suggestions on the great music, just ordered them used on amazon!Very methodical review of the Benchmark and more importantly the synergy with other components including cables! | |
Can you be an audiophile if ... I like my Wilson's Dealer definition of an "Audiophile" as someone who has more money invested in their music (CD's and albums) then their system! | |
High end amp - my last step Let me put it this way I don't believe there is good synergy between Wilson Speakers and Krell, both are revealing and dynamic and there can be too much of a good thing (Can make your system sound clinical). I can't speak for the Evolution series.... | |
High end amp - my last step Dmurfet: Skip the Krell/Wilson Combo it's dynamic but not musical...... I've heard way to many combo's that sounded really bad. | |
Affordable anti-jitter device if you need to pass AC3 or DTS you need a Camelot Dragon 5.1 as the others will not pass these signals. It's very nice unit i use to clean up my home theater (computer and cable) | |
salk sound HT3, Linbrook Sig, VMPS RM30 Check out Zybar's system he use to have RM40's and replaced them with the Salks. His system is better detailed on audiocircle. Fit and finish of course is way better on the Salk's. I was an owner of VMPS speakers and I love the value of them but t... | |
Any Home Theater Experts here? When I only had one rig I replaced my Sonic Frontiers with an EAD Signature with no loss in sound quality for 2 channel plus in balanced mode it used 4 DAC's which is amazing for 2 channel audio if you just have a transport. I still have the EAD s... | |
HDCD 'best one box player' recommendations? I have an EAD Signature processor and am very familiar with the warm intimate textured sound of your EAD with HDCD, but I bought a Theta Compli Universal player which is really amazing in the same ways as your EAD is but is definitely better. The ... | |
Best Multichannel Amp - ??? I'll second the Theta Dreadnaught as I considered it before I bought my Theta Citadel monoblocks for my 2 channel. It is a very involving amplifier (not as dark as the BAT on the top). If you can find one used an EAD Powermaster 2000 with 400watts... | |
Decent audio in terrible room? Go for high end Headphone system!or you have just described "Near Field Listening" Check out Cardas Audio's web site about speaker setup.The cool thing is you can go with a small integrated (save some dollars and provides simplicity). | |
Computer-Based Audio Primer Nice work Matt! thanks for putting this together.Another option is buy a plextor burner and use plextor tools to extract FLAC's as the plextor software performs like EAC without the configuration. | |
Balanced Y Adapters--Where to Find Transparent makes these also... | |
High end amp - my last step Dmurfet: I ran balanced cables to the Lamm but it was a waste, if you read his litature he doesn't believe balanced is required. I tried using a CJ pre single ended and ended up with a ground hum, but with the balanced cables and my Rowland or pla... | |
After ripping with EAC, what? I originally installed my second HTPC with 2003 server for that very same reason to be able to support multiple RDP sessions.. but Slimserver for my Squeezebox wouldn't install the service..damn back to XP..http://www.golod.com/2005/10/enabling-mu... | |
