Quicksilver V4 vs Manley Snappers Thanks Johnny R Happy New Year! BTW I just picked up a pair Conrad Johnson Premier 12 mono's running K120's and that's an amp that can compete with the V4 in similar price range. Not quite as macro dynamic but every bit as detailed, close in bass ... | |
Review: Darwin Cable Company Truth Interconnect I own 4 different pairs of Darwin's IC's and they are outstanding. I can't wait to try the Truth but to be honest I have been very happy with their Ascension IC's but these are supposed to be that much better. Tony is a great guy to deal with. I h... | |

PS Audio Direct Stream Below is my response to this from 06-06-14: Wisnon: Why not just get a properly designed tube Dac?? Adding just a random tube output stage wont compare well to a designed from ground up tube Dac like Lampi, VAD or Aesthetix.Or just a iFi Audio iTu... | |
PS Audio Direct Stream With respect IMO this like many components are at their best used with other complimenting, synergistic matching components if one has high resolution speakers. Bottom line is I don't think this DAC or any DAC out there at any price point and at a... | |
