| Experience with Monarchy Audio DIP I have a dip classic I used for about a year while I still had a Cdp. It made a good improvement but I now use a mac mini with a M2tech Evo so no longer need it. If you are interested I could let it go for a low price, I just don't need it anymore. | |
| Thoughts from Joule preamp owners? Mitch2,I upgraded my MK11 to the SE and I can tell you that the sound is the same only much better and more refined. The bass is cleaner and tighter but just as deep, the midrange is more detailed and the highs sparkle a bit more. All and all a go... | |
| Apartment system iPod to headphones I have the Purei20 and also the Wadia i170 docks. Big difference in cost, no difference in sound that I can hear. As long as you get a dock that bypasses the iPods internal dac you should be good to go. | |

| Class D amps? There are a couple of threads going on Audiocircle in the low wattage circle about the TBI Millenia MG3. This is a class BD amp that people are comparing favorably to much more expensive class A amps and even set amps. | |

I was planning on buying the Octave and using the Havana in my beach house rig, but maybe I will buy the Octave, Mod. the Havana and ... | |
| Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC Eugene81,Your statement hits my feelings about the Havana on the head. I love the tonal qualities of the dac but I wish at times I had more detail in the music. The opamps take the detail up a notch but I find myself wanting for more. Thanks for t... | |
| Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC I too have been following this thread with interest as these are the two dacs I have been considering. I currently own the MHDT Havana with upgraded opamps and I'm looking for someing with a bit more detail and seperation of instruments. Please ke... |
