| Looking for a $1k DAC that delivers? Sleepysurf, I came very close to buying that DAC too. | |
| Looking for a $1k DAC that delivers? SRZ88, based on everything I've read, if low end is "what you find missing in most dacs", then you may want to increase your budget to $1500 rather than $1k and get the Wyred DAC2. I wanted a DAC with more sonic weight and low end too, but the ind... | |
| "Neutral/Clear Amp vs. Dark Amp" What you want is an amplifier that can produce a "Live" sound, the way real instruments and music sound in person. I've been looking for that sound too. Of course the other components in your system must support that "Live" sound too, especially t... | |
| Looking for a $1k DAC that delivers? With the EE Plus there is a better sense of space, air and separation of instruments. There is more solidity, weight, low end, and resolution. The sound spreads out too and yet instruments are more focused. I listen primarily to jazz. Forgot to ad... | |
| Looking for a $1k DAC that delivers? I'm new to DACs. I began with the HRT Streamer II+, and followed that with the Centrance DACmini. I was able to audition both. They are both good DACs. The Centrance in particular is excellent in the area of clarity. I only used these first 2 DACs... | |
| Amps for MBL 111 Martinmobile, I just wanted to compliment you on your friendly, helpful, and informative post. I wish I saw more posts like this in all the audio forums and sites. If only more audiophiles communicated like you, this pursuit would be simpler and m... | |
| Best Multi CD Deck The Don Allen modified Marantz changers are very good. | |
| A wind-up Phonograph made by Micro Seiki? Get it appraised. | |
| Rega DAC vs. EE Minimax vs. Centrance vs. W4S 2 Douglas, can you post a link to the review of the Eastern Electric Minimax DAC Plus review? The Audio Blast review I've read only speaks of opamp rolling the original Eastern Electric Minimax DAC. I do not see any mention in "Audio Blast" where yo... | |
| Rega DAC vs. EE Minimax vs. Centrance vs. W4S 2 In my review of the EE DAC Plus I point out that that new unit is FAR superior in every respect to the first model. A comparison to the EE Minimax DAC (first version) is not useful in determining the sound of the Plus; the differential sonically i... | |
| Mac Mini vs. CDP? A fellow Goner emailed me to make me aware that the Amarra software is buggy from his experience with the Mac Mini. When it comes time to make a software purchase I will likely go with some other software like Puremusic to improve the performance ... | |
| Mac Mini vs. CDP? I've been planning to get the Mac Mini for my Eastern Electric Minimax DAC+. Until then, I'll be running it coax with my Krell cdp. I'll be watching this thread with interest for responses to this SQ issue. From all my reading, for computer audio ... | |
| Rega DAC vs. EE Minimax vs. Centrance vs. W4S 2 This is interesting to me. I had the Centrance Dacmini and will have the EE Minimax DAC Plus in a day or so. I liked the Centrance DACmini for its clarity which was special. In my system I wanted more weight (or fullness) to the sound, so I return... | |
| Power Cords--Your Preference? I had the Burly connected to a McCormack DNA 500. | |
| Power Cords--Your Preference? I had the Mac Burly too and did not like what it did with my amp at the time. |
