| Merason dac MK1 on audio mart it seems odd that he would suddenly get into scamming after 43 excellent transactions. That's for sure. Curious to see how this one ends. | |
| Open baffle speakers Requisite Audio gear looks darn good! This new speaker is exciting. Meanwhile, respectfully, the word is connoisseur. | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? @jimwsong1 If you've identified your speakers to be the weak link in your system, then why would you spend $4k on a DAC instead of new speakers? | |
| Holy Holostages!! A good friend who is also a discerning Audiophile told me this. He purchased 12 Holostages because he had 60 days to return them. He was positioning them around his room but he was frustrated because, although he could already tell that their eff... | |
| B&W Subwoofer speaker repair Philly area @sbeloli Assuming the trouble is with the amp since you don't specify? My only piece of B&W gear is a pair of headphones. At some point the ear cushions (or whatever they're called) became weirdly sticky, some issue with the leather used by... | |
| New Electrical Circuit @jea48 Thank you, that makes sense. Between (a) running 3 separate homeruns to the panel as mentioned above, and (b) a single homerun powering a subpanel in the listening room, which would you recommend? | |

| Six DAC Comparison Benjamin notes that Apple products are plug & play via USB, as are Lenovo devices. Linux devices. Lenovo is just a hardware brand. | |
| Does old-fashioned necessarily mean out of date? A modern SUV can drive circles around a sixties Jaguar E-type, yet the latter provides unmatched, unalloyed driving pleasure (more so if equipped with the early Moss 'box!). However, and without belaboring the obvious, if your goal is predictable... | |
| DAC connection to computer @8th-note You can use a phone or tablet to control foobar2000 in your existing setup. This thread has a few suggestions. | |
| Holy Holostages!! This is the best thread ever! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣 | |
| Holy Holostages!! Maybe the sanest way to process this is to look at it as performance art. In 2013, artist Pyotr Pavlensky famously nailed his testicles to the ground in Red Square to protest increased authoritarianism in Russia. Paying $999 for 4 little plastic p... | |
| PayPal Friends & Family listings. Why is this becoming so common? Another thing to consider: Venmo is secure in the sense that buyers cannot stop or reverse payments, so once it's in your Venmo it's good as cash. Except when it's not. There's a loophole that goes like this: if - and only if - the Venmo transact... |
