| Digital, Low Mass, ClassD, Less expensive, Let it happen! It appears that Parts Express alone is selling more amplifiers than most of HEA amp sells combined here in the US. Hey @michaelgreenaudioWhere do you see data to suggest this? | |
| Value of upgrading only 1 set of interconnects? All cables work on the principle of subtraction. They all take something away, leaving the rest apparently more enhanced. The real question is, do you want to change anything? If so, your room is always where you should start. Cables should come l... | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like Wow, did I ever spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to make a direct DAC to amp connection work with a 5.1 receiver I had it relatively easy. I used a Parasound P7, which is actually a really good 2 channel preamp which happens to have 7... | |
| Infinity FET Preamp rebuild I'd probably recommend something very basic, unless there are switching problems. There's only a handful of electrolytic caps. Go ahead and have all of them replaced with modern best of breed. Panasonic FM or Nichicons wherever possible. I think t... | |

| Low Volume Listening - XLR Cables ?? DIY with pure silver, Connex brand from Parts Connexion. This will cost you under $100 for a pair. Come back and tell me if you find any cables at all worth more than that after. | |

| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like Have you ever tried using your Brooklyn DAC as a preamp? Or is that just the “+” model that has that feature?I am doing that right now. I'm using monoblock Class D amplifiers with the Brooklyn as my DAC and preamp and source selector. Both the ori... | |
| Do I have to use a streamer/renderer to play music from an NAS? I use a Raspberry Pi with Logitech Media Server, but Volumio is the popular favorite. I use the USB interface straight. Works great, but you can also buy inexpensive S/PDIF or even analog outputs as well. What I like about both of these solutions ... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! What does the OP's post even mean? | |

| Trouble with 20-bit HDCD No compatibility issues.For convenience, I have ripped all my CD's and then wrote some scripts to scan for HDCD and decode them. Now all my HDCD's are stored as 24 bit FLAC. I imagine there is some conversion tool out there for whatever PC / OS X ... | |
| Where is great audio going? - Headphones and Mid-Cost Maybe I should have included DIY speakers as part of the new high-end, or at least what may save it. Best,E | |
