@georgehifi ,As I said before, I agree.I only posted this to get an idea of what is being done and the differences between the Zu resistor and the Spetz Autoformers in terms of how they are operating.I don't know a lot about such things, and wrote...

Would you donate a dollar to have these Members Review a Product?
@tomic601 , Good point.I just saw a video of John Atkinson's equipment. Though I really don't follow his reviews, I have to say he seems to be the real deal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGlg7HTPqso Bob 
DSP and stores - Anyone else get the feeling they might be sweetening?
If I see acoustic panels, hell, that’s another sales opportunity! Well, considering that trying to get a room in the best acoustic shape, I would think adding panels to be something encouraged. If it adds to the sale, it seems to make sense to ...

Thanks Almarg, et al.@millercarbon,Yes, I agree, getting the right equipment is the best approach. I was curious as to how either method worked, especially with regard to sound reproduction.Given that Zu has signed off on the resistors, I would im...

When do the new Atmasphere Class D come out?
@atmasphere ,Thanks for the info Ralph.I am waiting on a new set of cables to see if that helps with the buzz.The only thing next to the UV-1 is an Ayre Codex DAC and a LCD monitor. The amps are at least 3 feet away.When you need a Beta tester, lo... 
Vandersteen 5a, 15 years old vs. new Vandersteen Quatro Wood (upgrade or downgrade)
