| USB to DAC questions Hey, wow alright thats good to know that I should be able to run this cable about 30ft... there wont be any loss, right?Would there be a difference b/w a fiber optic and a standard USB at this length?Its confusing b/c... I understand loss with ana... | |
| USB to DAC questions Hey Sailor, thanks for the input. Based on all the reviews I have gathered thusfar and what I read about different models and the difference between NOS and over-sampling, I seem to be settling nicely on the idea of picking up a Scott Nixon USB DA... | |
| USB to DAC questions Deuce... good to hear... I'm excited man. I actually can't believe I have gone this long without a nice home theatre system. Granted I have nice headphones that I edit on and listed to music on... I think I am definitly in for a treat once I put t... | |
| USB to DAC questions oh, i see. Thanks for the info.So, just to make sure of one of the most basic ideas here... when everyone is talking about connecting their USB DAC to their computers, they are just using the stock USB ports that are built into the computer's moth... | |
| Wow Windows Vista sounds sooo much better Hey, I don't mean to hi-jack this thread... but I have a relevant question. I am about to buy a squeezebox and am running XP. Would it be advantageous to upgrade to vista for this as well? Will the digital audio quality streaming through the squee... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output Cool, thanks for the input Mrjstark. That is extremely useful to know about the archos. I am assuming that any MP3 player would be the same story in that case. This re-affirms my recent conclusion to go with the squeezebox.Have you tried using the... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output Oh... heh, well it appears I made an idiot of myself.The stereophile reviewer said 'wall wart' referring to the type of power supply in the squeezebox... not 'wall-mart' as I wrote. Lol, I thought he was calling it a cheap power supply by associat... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output Alright... I just looked into it... and I am intrigued, without a doubt.A couple things I don't understand though. First, I am skeptical that you could get just as good or better sound out of the squeezebox than you could an MP3 player (docked, of... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output er, uh, sqeezebox? I'll look into it. Thanks for the suggestion.So, between the archos which has seperate RCAs in it's dock and the Zune which only has a mini-out... do you think the archos would sound better? | |
| Zune output vs. CD output USB DACs are strictly for computers, right? There would be no way to hook an MP3 player up to an amp via USB, right?If there were, would this be much better than quality RCA interconnects? | |
| An audiophile DVD burner ?? Hey... thought I would chime in with a possibility. Maybe whatever you are playing the discs back on struggles a little reading whatever codec you are encoding the music with.How does it sound if you copy a file back to your HDD from a burned DVD ... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output Hmm... Looks like the Zune dock only has a mini output as well...The Archos dock is packed... S-Video, spdif, separate RCAs, component, composite... for the same price. And the Archos is WiFi as well. Maybe I will go with that instead... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output Hey,Oh ya, I forgot to mention that in my original post... I will have the Zune docked in their A/V pack. I was actually amazed at this thing... you can output a full 480p signal via component cables from the little zune when docked.So... I couldn... | |
| Zune output vs. CD output Cool, thanks for the input. So does running sound out of a 1/8" mini into 2 RCAs yield any loss in comparison to running straight RCA to RCA? Let's assume I used identical RCA cables for each and a quality 1/8" mini plug. |
