| Converting my CD Collection from .FLAC to .WAV Here’s a link to the “Audiochecker” site if you’re interested- Audiochecker | |
| Converting my CD Collection from .FLAC to .WAV @bolong Have you checked any of the downloaded files with software like “Audiochecker” to determine the file provenance? Just a thought as some files are manipulated from lower resolution prior to being available for download or streaming. I’ve... | |
| Converting my CD Collection from .FLAC to .WAV Got it. You have nice equipment- should sound good. JRiver’s conversion to WAV is done in memory (as I’m sure you know) so as long as that requirement is met I don’t see it affecting your Dac. I agree that starting from WAV to begin with would be ... | |
| Converting my CD Collection from .FLAC to .WAV What transport and Dac are you using now? Which is burdened with the conversion and what processors are in the circuit?

| Another cable question @bikeboy52 Not that I’m a total “non believer” there are facts in play when it comes to wire/cable. Silver will provide less resistance than Copper but the delta is not great- so with straight silver you will see more conductance. If you go with... | |
| Favourite Guitarists Another I haven’t seen mentioned yet who is truly one of the greatest of the last 30 years- Joe Satriani. | |
| Favourite Guitarists I’m sure if I went through my collection I could find many- but one that hasn’t been mentioned yet is Danny Gatton. Although his story ends sadly the impression he left on many stands to this day. | |

| Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack Over the course of my career I’ve designed many isolation stands for equipment that is generally heavier and much more sensitive than audio gear and I have to say that other than aesthetics there’s really no need for rocket science when deciding w... |
