| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev Others may differ but I would suggest using reasonable XLR interconnects but to not go crazy. If you read up on the XLR standard, the standard was developed to minimize cable differences. I’ve had alot of good ones...did I hear differences... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? @jasonbourne52 Unless controlled listening tests are done all bets are off! A DAC is really just a sound card - and needn't cost four and five-figures! Hmmmmmmmmmmm. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev just a reminder to stay focused on your goals and your plan. | |
| "High end" store snobbery @gabor2525 did you buy the gear from them that you were trying to trade in? | |
| "High end" store snobbery I’m not sure why our hobby seems to attract (in certain locales) the occasional indifferent dealer or the occassional hyper-sensitive customer. When I was younger, there were a fair number of electronic techs who had slowly evolved into stocki... | |
| Proof of improvements in audio system sound quality.... Eternal trolling… | |
| Tube DACs @allanblissett every dac has an analog output stage, volume or no volume. | |
| Tube DACs @hickamore There are a number of dacs with tubes. Some have volume (Lampizator, Totaldac D1-Tube) some don’t (Aqua La Scala). Some skeptics may opine that they color the sound….but what doesn’t? VERY few dac, be they solid state or tube output s... | |

| Made in USA @bjesien I am good and hope you are as well….do I have one of these? | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @unreceivedogma thanks for posting. There is a good history of hip hop in a documentary on PBS. IIRC Chuck D produced it? Like you eloquently stated, there is a great deal of the genre that I don’t personally enjoy. Others on this thread are m... | |
| Made in USA @nonoise Let’s say there are 10 guys in a bar and the "average" income of them is $40K/yr. Then someone like Bill Gates walks into the bar and has a drink with them. The average pay of those guys would be in the multiples of millions no matter ... | |
| Made in USA @elliottbnewcombjr Does Mexico make any audio equipment? Margules is well thought of and well reviewed. | |
| Made in USA @carlsbad Take it easy on @dodgealum because its never been in fashion for educators to present opposite sides of a given topic. Many here are old enough to have had to go search elsewhere to read Darwin, to learn about Wounded Knee, Kent State,... | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @simonmoon @ghasley I was wondering how long it would take for someone to adjust the eyeholes on their hood and see this thread….. I wonder how many people on this thread who don’t like rap or hip hop, love jazz? Do believe those of ... |
