| Teac PD H750 Mrtennis - I'll be extremely interested in your impressions/review of the CD3000; in particular your input on necessary break-in time. I have been "home auditioning" a CD3000 this past week. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Recent talk about Willie...I was in the grocery store this AM. Walking down an aisle towards one of those displays right in the middle of things. This one had a collection of CDs. Of course what do I immediately spot lower right corner about secon... | |
| I-tunes download sample rate? Mental - I did find DBpoweramp on the net. It is Windows only. Wasn't sure (still not) about the S/W? [Late arriving thought...software??] Anyway, I did find XLD for Mac but it looks like freeware code or something. Not sure how to use it. What's ... | |
| I-tunes download sample rate? Steve - if you will, please elaborate. What is "S/W like dbpoweramp" and what is "XLD"? Thanks. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Hey Mental. I'm not a big Willie fan but there is something really pure about "Red Headed Stranger". Used to have that LP (or maybe my sis did) a long time ago. | |
| Use asynch. USB converter with inboard DAC? "...even though these DACs have built-in Async USB interfaces" - that's what was behind my question. I though I'd occasionally see a DAC product described as "asynchronous" which implied to me no need for an asynch. converter. Thanks Steve. | |
| Use asynch. USB converter with inboard DAC? Thanks for the feedback, Zd. I actually have a 1st gen Musical Fidelity V-Link that I use with their V-DAC (also 1st gen.) for streaming Pandora etc. Wasn't sure if the newer DACs still needed that asynchronous help managing feed from the computer... | |
| External HD Changing the quality of the sound? Wow - that is some primo, gear you have, DH. | |
| External HD Changing the quality of the sound? Spent time the last 2 evenings A/B 'ing CDP vs Apple Lossless version with BitPerfect through DAC. Listened mainly to Peter Gabriel's "So" that I am very familiar with...especially tracks 3, 6 & 9. Have to say I found it VERY hard to tell a di... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Mental - Yup...I'd probably have to agree w/"Then Play On" being one of FW Mac's best. Recently got into the very early stuff by them with Peter Green. It is amazingly good for how old. Mick and John were a great rhythm section. Then add Peter &am... | |
| External HD Changing the quality of the sound? Thanks DH - The V-DAC is pretty barebones...no display of sample rate, no display at all. I can try some other things messing with sample rate in MIDI to see what BitPerfect does, as you suggest. Davide - (if that was for me) no hires files yet. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report PS - Found this by way of one of the thumbnails while listening to that second Prefuse link you had. Like this one very much...more like the Storm Returns...it's called Love You Bring.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INQvVbXOmXk | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Hey Pokey - OK...so I gave a listen to Prefuse again. Have to say I DID like "Storm Returns". Had an excellent feel and groove to it. Something you'd almost like to have running as a continuous loop. I ordered a bunch of music lately (used very go... | |
| External HD Changing the quality of the sound? Thanks for the heads up, Steve. For better or worse, the Seagate external HD is USB powered. I am fumbling my way through these early stages and it's an accomplishment that I can actually copy a cd and play it back from the HD. Haven't yet done an... | |
| External HD Changing the quality of the sound? Thanks DH - I did understand the purpose of BitPerfect, I just wasn't sure about where I had to install it - but it asks about the location of your music library so maybe that was moot. I bought it and think I've got it going now. I have a little ... |
