| Too much of a good thing... Why not stay within the Cardas universe? You may be surprised at how different the Clear or Clear Beyond are from the Cross / Golden Cross series. A cable loan from The Cable Co. will let you hear the differences, which I believe will fit your new... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Backing this up with evidence, is a recent experience between two Cardas XLR to RCA adaptors. Cardas carries two versions in their accessory line up. Differences between both adaptors with the same cables were readily and clearly apparent and my p... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @corelli That stood out for me as well. As you say, it's really quite remarkable. In Billy's case with the DIs. The SEs and Encores and Ulfberths take the same up a few more notches. | |
| Solid Silver Power Cord If solid silver is a must, Mike Powell's Verastarr silver builds are worth exploring and considering. | |
| Solid Silver Power Cord @thyname Correct, yet exceptional performance for the money and they do give you a ’solid’ helping of that silver goodness. If it’s within budget, I’d go for either of the two cables I mentioned over the Digital American...not because the DA isn’t... | |
| Solid Silver Power Cord Triode Wire Labs 'Silver Statement' or 'The Obsession' power cords. | |

| TIDAL-Who knows what you are hearing? Don't Ask, Don't Tell. In my experience with the music I select and listen to, almost every track is high resolution or CD quality, as advertised. For me, this means resolution isn't a factor within the Tidal music universe. In other words, I don't give it a thought.Fur... | |
| TIDAL-Who knows what you are hearing? Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Agree with @2psyop Why overcomplicate?Pull up the album you want to listen to and check the resolution. You can also view other versions of the album, if offered. You can view Tidal Masters selections, as well...this will give you a subset of alb... | |
