| Do hi-end DACs offer true value or diminishing return... I have a problem understanding % of sound quality improvement. Improvement is binary it's either better or it isn't. Its also personal what sounds better to you doesn't mean I will agree with your assessment. So if the difference is miniscule t... | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? speakers made of lead. | |
| Do hi-end DACs offer true value or diminishing return... Wait??? You’re comparing dacs thru the dac you already own.

| How much “suspension of disbelief do you need?” I am pretty deluded and very disappointed but not with my HIFI. I've been to two Los Lobos concerts the first at the zoo (outside) was the second best I've ever attended. My most recent was the second worst I've ever attended. The sound guy mu... | |
| Off the Grid Listening-HELP! Tubes draw a lot of power. It might be less expensive to use SS and even better energy wise digital amp. There are formulas on line to calculate your power requirements. Good luck with that | |
| The hunt is over Since you've quite hunting Maybe try fishing. | |
| Listening without interpretation...is it impossible? I’m unsure of the what is being questioned??? I’m on a Brazilian Jazz kick and it’s all in Portuguese and i don’t understand a single word of Portuguese. It doesn’t need to be interpreted to be enjoyed. It actually may be enjoyed more because now ... | |
