| Aries-Cerat Helene Review @tonywinga Congrats! I bought one earlier in the year and absolutely love it. Don't listen to any of the BS the naysayers may give you - they've never heard it. Just pity the fool. This is the last DAC I'll ever buy and if I had to buy it agai... | |
| Has buying and/or selling audio gear changed? If you have your receipts and you take a loss on selling something, you can also deduct that loss on your taxes | |
| Has buying and/or selling audio gear changed? I've noticed many more sellers insisting on F&F, but I wouldn't say it's the new standard. Dunno if it's because of the tax issue or he's worried about buyer claims. Of course it allows the seller to be a little shady also. If he wants to use... | |

| Speaker Cable Recommendation Another vote for Mogami. Very affordable and very good. If you try them and don't like them, you're not out very much money. If you do like them, you have money to spend elsewhere. | |
| How easily can you distinguish between different DACs? Jusy my observations and your I’m sure YMMV. Only the listener can determine if the difference they hear is huge or not - it’s all in their perspective. You can only go by your ears tell you and really, nothing else matters. Reviewers on the int... | |
| Two questions to make you mad. Quite the broad brush, you're painting this picture with. | |
| Speakers 10 years old or older that can compete with todays best, I'm rocking close to 40 year old speakers. I haven't heard any of the newer speakers but that's because I'm totally satisfied with my Yamaha NS-2000's. They're fantastic in a small room like I have. That's because they're acoustic suspension speak... | |
