DAC Output 192/16 vs. 192/24 Will I Hear A Difference
Thanks, your responses have been helpful.  
DAC Output 192/16 vs. 192/24 Will I Hear A Difference

What was wrong with the P-mount ?
@erik_squires I understand what you mean about the Rega TT. I had a P3-24 with an Exact 2 and it was fine and simple to set up. Now I have a Technics SL1200G with a Hana SL. Like Chakster said, easy to set up. Just one more step than the Rega and ...
