Kubala-Sosna Sensation
Hello,I have fairly high end equipment, Audionet Max amps and Pre G2 with Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC.  I would categorize my system as true and revealing in a wonderful way.  Do not say over-etched. Wires (are) were all Audience AU24SX, which I demo'd... 
Has anyone ever tried cables made with OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) Copper?
Hi dougthebiker, I am a fan of Audience Cables, particularly their AU24 SX.  From their site:OHNO cables are named after Dr. Atsumi Ohno who invented the method of manufacturing mono-crystal wire, a highly sophisticated process of producing wire w... 
spend on the streamer or on the DAC ?
+! for this:rbstehno1,175 postsGet the best dac you can afford that has an Ethernet port and then get Roon to run on a server that is located outside of your audio room. Forget about the flawed usb connection, then you don’t need a computer in you... 
spend on the streamer or on the DAC ?
...or to be more direct, don't waste your money on a separate streamer until you have a very good DAC you like, and it just might even also be a very good streamer!  and one less box and cable and power cord...and that again is just my opinion!  Ken 
spend on the streamer or on the DAC ?
Hello OP,  I started with the Node 2 as  streamer and DAC; it got me into streaming and sounded ok.  Upgraded to PS Audio Direct Stream with Bridge (streamer); Better!.  Then I upgraded to Auralic Vega G2 DAC and Streamer; Better Yet!Now I have re...

telescope_trade:Hello, it is  2 1/2 years since your last post here!Do you still have the Salon 2's? I have had my pair now for about two year.s  I love them!  But I have changed electronics a lot since I have had them.  I also started with PSAudi... 
Lumin X1 with Innuous Zenith Mk3 Question
Hi OP,  Yes, I was also looking at the X1 and was surprised to see no other digital inputs.  I use my DAC as a streamer and endpoint for ROON, and also use additional optical input for TV Audio.  For this kind of money, I would strongly consider t... 
Caveat about the Cable Company return policy
I have had nothing but good service and good experiences with Steven at the Cable Company.  He guided me through several shipments from the lending library, and I ultimately bought nice B stock Audience cables.  Ken 
B&W 803 d3. Is a 16 x 12 size room ok for this spkr?
The 803 would be great.  Not too big.  Richer sound. 
B&W 804 D3 vs 803 D3
I have owned 804N and do own 803N and 802N.  I have auditioned the D3 802s and 803s.  Many here dump on BW but they are great speakers with right electronics.  How big is your room?  The 803s are a big upgrade, but to me, the 802s are a huge jump ... 
Cable droop
My nice Power Cables tend to droop or drop where plugged into my Inakustik 3500p conditioner.  I don't hear a difference, but it bugs me.If I wiggle a component the power cord tends to do this at the conditioner (male plug) end.  I don't have much... 
Sam here.l realize now why so many people think my ideas are crazy?
I don’t know...’Hairless Heart’ is amazing......was the Lamb unshaven? 
USB sucks
Is there really an advantage to not using a combined Streamer / DAC?I have Roon Nucleus + (yes expensive but flawless in operation, don't ever even need to look at it, located by modem in my office) and two DACs, Auralic VEGA 2 and MOLA MOLA Tamba...
