| Review: Mad Scientist White Magic Interconnects So, maybe a more effective way to describe what you hear would be to compare its sound to other cables you have. | |
| How important is an LCD screen on your streamer? Not important, but a cool feature to have. I like displaying the album cover. | |
| Going from the Adcom GFA 555 ii to the Bryston 4b SST or SST2? Both will be an improver. But the SST2 will be the more satisfying improvement. The SST will have a bit more slam. But put your money into 2 steps up rather than one. The SST2 is highly regarded. | |
| Converting Vinyl to Digital I saw a turntable with an ADC built in on youtube somewhere. | |
| Streamers rabbit hole @mark6088 I agree. I too have owned and used a variety of streamers. They all sounded roughly the same to me. It wasn't until I bought the RS130 that I was satisfied. Definitely another level. It even took a jump when I ran a ground from it to my ... | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) @sns I agree. i2S is notably better. People really need to ditch the printer cables. | |

| T+A Class D Amps ( M200 or A200)? Yeah well, it sure won't cost you anything to insert your m33 into the Revel room right now. Start there. But I'm worried that what you find lacking may just be the characteristics of D amps in general. Perhaps you could consider improving the dac... | |
| T+A Class D Amps ( M200 or A200)? Ooph, they’re both Eigentakt amps? And you’re hoping the monoblocks together with a better power supply and implementation will make an appreciable difference? Your ears are better than mine my friend. Spec wise, you may be right. But that sounds ... | |
| Linear power supply If I were a manufacturer, I’d like to say SMPS’s are great too. Shipping costs must be far less. Hat tip to Benchmark. | |
| Qobuz Connect It's still new. They I'll work it out. | |

| Jay’s Audio Lab is shutting down He's just moving to Texas. He'll be up and running again. But in a larger space. | |
| Old Vs New ..... Transport and dac. So it's an upsampled Burr-Brown PCM1704U. For what it's worth. The Pontus will sound better. |
