| C390DD - Review Kalyan, are you getting better results? I'm early in my evaluation of the 390DD but have also found that vocals are quite recessed. | |
| Digital Coax to XLR adapters? Actually, what you need is 75 ohm to 110 ohm impedance transformer. Get one of these: Canare BCJ-XP-TRB 75 Ohm to 110 Ohm Digital Audio Impedance Transformer. For the money, it's worth a try. Note that it wants a BNC connection on the coax in side... | |

| Recent equipment you hated, thought overpriced I've liked some Ayre products, but not the K-5XE[mp] preamp. Do not understand the enthusiasm.Plinius. Though in fairness, it always sounds good (often very very good) in others' systems, just not in mine. | |
