| Pre, pro $3k I wouldn't get anything for 7.1. Not interested. | |
| Upsampling PCM or DSD in 2022 DirectStream is the only way to go. I guess you missed the 20% off plus big trade INS a few years back. I traded in a buncha junk and got it new for about $3.3K. Stay far away from PCs. | |
| Conditioner vs. Surge protector Just like apples vs oranges. | |
| Decoupling cartridges from tone arms The Origin Live one is gushy enough to fine tune azimuth. Recommended. I tried the Cartridgeman the last time this came up here. Pushed my VTA to the limit. Uninstalled. I got better sound with a Soundsmith Wood Head shell. | |
| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question Is this from The Onion? Jason actually got it right. The same with knotscott. As an experienced DIY speaker builder, I say you are valuing your time at $2/hr. Or buy a cabinet kit and adjust your outlay price accordingly. Either way you will en... | |
| I'm confused on HR 24bit VS A Parasound C2 Processor at 16 bit Then quit chasing the dragon and accept your lot in life. | |
| Vote Your Ranking -If you have an opinion on this digital subject The only determining factor is what they are playing on. "Since I don’t..." is not an answer. I don't purchase many files. BFD What about ripped SACDs (DSD64)? They are digital too. | |

| Thoughts on the iFi Zen Streamer @bkeske How is the player app with the iFI? Gapless and defeatable queue? | |
| Opinions of Onkyo P-3000R phono preamp Well you got the USB part almost right. I would use an old phone so I would be free for walkin’ ’round with my SIM card. It would still sound much better with a dedicated player. For vinyl try a Puffin with SPDIF. You’ll never know until you com... | |
| Opinions of Onkyo P-3000R phono preamp Does it actually play flac? Or just amplify a PC playing flac? If so you have no clue what you’re missing. Take the Parks Puffin 30-day trial and compare. | |
| Remove Radio Station Background Noise Just slide some battery strappinh over what you have now and ground it to the closest amp. | |
| Advice needed on MC cartridges The AT VM750SH has much better separation than the Ort Black There is that. The AT MM & Ortofon HOMC I own I prefer to my Hana MC. That’s all I got. | |
| Thoughts on the iFi Zen Streamer I don't have one but the Zen looks like the winner. Why pay for a meh DAC if you already have one that you like? I am happy with every piece of iFi I have acquired. Their R&D looks superior, on a par with Pro-Ject. |
