NEW Discovery: Getting the Oppo DSD Output to a Dac.
Ozzy,Seems like you're getting PCM digital hi-res out of that Oppo when -as I understand it- that isn't supposed to be possible on SACD. It may not be the DSD but the assumption I make is that it could still sound better than the 16/24 rate an SAC...

Roon I-Pad App
You iPad needs to be of more recent vintage. Many of us Roon users who were waiting for the remote iPad app found out at the app's launch that our units weren't compatible. Here's a link to the thread at Roon. Somewhere is there is a listing of th... 
3 applications for Jl audio subs crossovers?
Those E110 have a "built-in, active crossover using a fourth-order (24dB/octave, 80dB/decade) Linkwitz-Riley filter, equipped with variable gain, variable crossover-frequency..." according to a great review in TAS. Two are on my wish list. Not for...
