| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Hey Pokey - good to hear from you. Just recently spent a few evenings in a row listening to Wilco. Sky Blue Sky is probably my favorite by them. Their recordings are well produced too...good sonics. | |

| Most underrated composer of 20th Century? More than one here, so can't be "most" but perhaps, "very"?...Edgar VareseGeorge CrumbWhile I do not have first hand experience of their work, from doing a little reading on "minimalism" as it pertains to music, these two names deserve considerati... | |
| Musical Fidelity V-Link with Rega DAC REVIEW Jon - glad that worked. What connection are you using from your V-Link to the Rega DAC? Recently purchased a genuine glass fiber TOSLINK cable from "Unique Products" . You can find it on Amazon. Price was only $26 and they were very prompt with sh... | |
| Best Phono amp under $2000. Other experienced A'gon members (no longer posting regularly) had recommended Heed Quasar when I was looking for a Lehman Black Cube replacement. I can't say "best" but it would be in your price range. | |

| Lateral move or real upgrade? Thanks, Willie. When you changed from BitPerfect to Audirvana, did you have to uninstall BitPerfect or just disable it before installing Audirvana? I see Audirvana offers a free trial period. Thanks to all for the advice so far. | |
| Lateral move or real upgrade? Hey Rotarius...I was planning to order the BiFrost withOUT the USB option and continue to use the V-Link (coax.) with it. Any thoughts about that? | |
| Lateral move or real upgrade? Hi Drubin & thanks for the advice. Yes...using iTunes but with BitPerfect. It was inexpensive, easy to download and they were very responsive to email when I needed tech support. I'm not opposed to spending more on something better but I am NO... | |
| Tempo Electric speaker cables Nonoise - you are on my short list of posters whose opinion I respect and value. Appreciate your well-written comments on these cables (though for my system, I am fighting the opposite problem). Glad you found something that's working (even better... | |
