RCA to XLR - Cable adapter?
Sorry Jim maybe I didn't read over your quest close enough. It would be better IMHO, to just use a SE to XLR interconnect. The BJCs won't cost more than $40. I would eliminate all unneeded connections if possible. Trying to use the Resolution Refs... 
RCA to XLR - Cable adapter?
You can order something like this from Bluejeans cable. I had a 1 ft set made to run from my SE DAC to XLR buffer unit..it works without a hitch. 
Looking for insight on the Green Mountain Europas
WOW..another echo from a former owner. I liked the Europas a lot! The guys posted before me have described the sound very well..I can't add anything there. I had to move to a single driver speaker in order to have the sound of Roy's time coherent ... 
Floor Standing under $1000 Polk vs Paradigm
How about something different? A Soliloquy 5.3 or 6.3 would be happy with 60 wpc. Much more efficient over the two listed above. The 6.3 retailed for over $3000. The company is out of business now..so there are some great deals to be had.

Help - New Paradign Signature speakers buzzing
When I say ringing ..I'm talking about a very light buzz. Similar to the sound of a knat buzzing near your ear.If it's static ..most likely bad tweeter or tweeters. 
Help - New Paradign Signature speakers buzzing
I have heard the Paradigm tweeters ring in the past.Not sure if that's what you're hearing. I thought they had taken care of the ringing tweets with the newer versions.

Help with PC Audio Quality vs. CD
Pardales I wish I could help you with that.Can you use foobar? Just asking because I have no clue. The ASIO is definitely the way to go with the UD-10 using PC. The difference using the ASIO as the output is quite staggering! I tried using the DS:...

Ben I bought my unit from Buyoyo.com. The guy on agon is based in Canada. These units ship directly from Hong Kong. If their in stock and you go courier shipping. You'll have one within a few days. The UD-10 units are selling faster than the manu... 
Review: Bent Audio Tap Linestage
The output impedance varies depending on the detent selected. If I'm not mistaken the output should be around 1/4 the sources input impedance...So if your source is 100 ohms the rough guess is 25 Ohms on the output of the TAP. But again it varies ... 
Help with PC Audio Quality vs. CD
I've been listening basically all day to this setup. Reconfiguring the Foobar and ASIO4all many times. I think now the unit sounds fantastic even without the battery pack. Adjusting the buffer to 128 without latency and using the ASIO4all as the p...

As promised I am reporting on what the Trends audio UD-10 does or does not do. So far so good! If buying this unit..best to get the battery power supply. It makes quite a difference in my system and easily recognized. The same with the different d...
