Six DAC Comparison This is always the biggest can of worms. If you follow ASR, then it would be evident that the benchmark is quite far from the best and measured performance, although the mola is better by a good bit on ASR. Personally, I have eight different Dacs ... | |
Has anyone tried the new Synergistic Research UEF Performance Enhancer - Ethernet Filter? Amazing how people think they are experts and claim things cant possibly have any effect. Talk of ethernet protocalls, snake oil, and rants about people imagining things are clear signs of typical lack of college level electrical engineering from ... | |
Rigid outlets for Heavy cables I have a spare one of the 3D printed duplex cable support plates that I am not using if you want to buy it. | |
Effect of Internet Service Quality on Streaming? I have observed degraded streaming from time to time. I have a well isolated setup with 2 of the Jcat M12 switches cascaded into an Uptone Ether Regen w sfp to my server. While I do not see the daily fluctuations I do notice a degradation over ti... | |
What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? Software, Powersupply, electrical isolation and clocking. | |
Eliminated my preamp with amazing results The absolute best non active setup I have ever heard was an Autoformer volume control (AVC). The best overall setup I have heard was the AVC fed by a Jung Diamond buffer. The big issue with almost any active or passive pre is the quality of the v... | |

Preamp for a GaN-FET amp... I built 3 Gan stereo amps from Gan Systems boards and a Starcrimson set of boards. ASR had their typical reviews of Gan Amps which really has no listening / sound metrics. The Gan systems boards have the ability to turn off loop feedback and I pr... | |
Upgrading preamp. Best for under $1K I am partial to tubes in the preamp by a large margin. A used Audible Illusions or Melos would be very good if you can find one. I have also bought 12 clone board sets from Aliexpress as well as helped modify several complete tube preamps from A... | |
Perplexed on how single driver speakers can cover such a large Hz range It is quite simple however it is also difficult to implement. You also need to consider what is "Full Range". Very very few speakers reach into sub bass territory yet most people consider most box speakers full range. Most speakers reach into the ... | |
High end speakers at low volume Many have been down this road. There are a few generalizations to consider: 1 Small rooms are easier to energize at low volumes and the listening position is closer. 2 Speaker size effects low volume listening. Big speakers are generally design... | |
Speakers sounding dull? MUST READ! The truth about speaker design! AWW shucks! I wish I could have read this without all the deleted replies. | |
What is the VERY BEST CD album you've ever heard? Wow that's hard but I have a few that are the best sounding in CD format. Eva Cassidy "Nightbird" Palladin Ensemble "An Excess of Pleasure" on Linn label. Jennifer Warnes " Famous Blue Raincoat" Not sure if these are the best streaming select... |
