| Should I add a DDC? @kingbr Set your Hermes pin configuration to 000, then go through the pin settings on your Pontus with low volume until you get the undistorted music. Verify this afterward with test tones for left/right channels and phase. I just went through th... | |
| DAC shopping - Trying to sift through the Hype. Can I trust the reviews these days ?? @kairosman The New Venus 15th is a Terminator II it looks like to me. I just received a Terminator 15th yesterday which is really a Terminator + 12th + some FPGA adjustments. It's cooking in my system now, will listen in a few days. | |

| A Review of the Denafrips Pontus Gen 15 DAC Yesterday I ordered the Terminator 15th from Audioman58 to replace my Venus II. On a leap of faith because there are no reviews but I like the Denafrips house sound and I already have the Hermes and a good I2s cable. He told me it is exactly like ... | |

| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp I spoke with David at Spatial last week, and the time has finally come that I will be placing my order for my Raven Preamp in the next week or two while I am home for the holidays. I've been saving for a very long time being retired now. I will ge... | |

| Legacy Audio Focus SE and rivals Depending on your Budget the Focus XD’s have the internal amplification, which allows for bi amping. They incorporate the better mid range drivers as well compared to the Focus SE. If you also buy the Legacy Wavelet you can get them tuned for your... | |
