| Springsteen and Clapton on their favorite, heh, band. I am lucky enough to be one of 106 people in the audience at an outdoor concert at Levon Helm's studio in Woodstock this weekend, celebrating what would have been his 81st birthday. Chris Thile is fronting the "Midnight Ramble" band. I have been... | |
| A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport Hopefully we will have the ~$1,250 Schiit transport in the fall to compare with the Pro-Ject. It will have Unison USB pass through, supposedly. | |
| Does length matter ? I had always heard that girth mattered more ... :) | |
| Pimping your router @mikem Prego!! As has been said slightly differently "Most things matter", not all. The trick is to figure out which ones matter the most, at the least cost per unit of improvement. One would go broke otherwise. Have to run, the mailman is her... | |
| Schiit Audio (or other) DAC Recommendations @mceljo You can read the technical aspects on their website and Jason’s Headroom thread (warning, it’s very long). My take on it is that they have worked out a mathematical way to re-construct the original waveforms from the 44.kHz sampling (e.g.)... | |

| Pimping your router I recently added an ENO Ag (fed by Monoprice CAT8) in front of my Roon Nucleus, that was already being powered by an HDPlex 300 LPS, which was also feeding 5v power to my Schiit Yggdrasil DAC with Unison USB, via a USB Disruptor. It made a clear ... | |
| Martin Logan BalanceForce 210 vs JL audio E112 @noel89 Oh, if you have ML speakers you should definitely be considering a ML sub. Beyond the PBK, ML provides custom cross-overs that match their various speakers. I use the custom crossover that lets me run my CLXs full range, so that I add no... | |
| Schiit Audio (or other) DAC Recommendations @mceljo I am a big fan of Schiit DACs and own three of them right now. I would only buy a Modi if I bought the MultiBit version. MultiBit was game changer over their previous versions. | |
| Favorite Cowboy Junkies? It was the Trinity Sessions that put them on the map and is an "audiophile" favorite, for good reason. Recorded live to a single stereo mike in one long take in a church in Toronto. It is exceptional, except for the AC unit making all that nose so... | |
| Martin Logan BalanceForce 210 vs JL audio E112 If the JL can be calibrated to your room, it might be an option. The Perfect Bass Kit (PBK) for the ML is essential. Having the sub's output customized to your room is not optional, once you have heard it. |
