Tried vinyl and also could not get past the clicks and pops. I find my dac and rig as musical as any turntable I have heard, in my system, to be honest. Some of the sweeping comments against digital here are simply not true. Broad based and sweepi...

Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Life has thrown me a curve ball that necessitated the selling off of my most expensive gear to pay for some specialized back surgery. The surgery was very, very expensive and cutting edge . It was not covered in large part by insurance. However, I...

Don't know what's wong with me
Even the power cord you have on the amp. So many factors. I loved those Triode Corp of Japan 845 mono amps at Expona. 
Don't know what's wong with me
An 845 amp built to only push that tube to 50-60% of it's rating does in fact equal a 300B or 2a3 etc....It always depends on the tube amp's design. Sounds comes from both the tube and the circuit design employed. 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
I found the second smaller room with the Lampi 7, Ginkgo speakers and Dana cables to be excellent sounding. In some ways better sounding than the Vapor room. The Vapor room was hot sounding to my ears on the first and second day. The third day was...
