| Why use CD Transport instead of computer source yes there is but I don't fully understand why. Why does one transport sound better than another? Some say it is due to Jitter. Mod companies generally improve the clock to reduce Jitter and replace the power supply. Despite such changes there are ... | |
| Calling on B.A.T. VK-P10SE owners Brent Jesse at Audiotubes.com suggested Sylvania as a replacement for the 6Sw7 's. They did improve the sound as well. | |
| Calling on B.A.T. VK-P10SE owners Serge, Great Phono Amp. However it can even get better with Balanced connections. Are you missing the RCA box or is that whats damaged? If so, you can have mine. Free! Also the superpack helps but what also helps is changing the tubes to Nos. Richard | |
| Accustic Arts Drive 1 Mk1 vs Mk2 driving DAC 1 Mk4 Pubul57 I use a computer transport via USB to Toslink (Roland U25) into Apogee BigBen Reclocker and then to Accustic Arts tube DAC. The software running the program makes a big difference. Foobar2000 on Vista is the best. Having said all that, pc ... | |
| 24 bit/ 96 kHz PC playback, help please Here is the reason. The Roland UA-25 24 bit/96 kHz works fine however my DAC will not impute 24 bit/96. It only takes 44.1 and Upscales it. the Benchmark and Bel Canto 3will do it. I unfortunately love my tube Dac for CD playback. Most of what I L... | |
| 24 bit/ 96 kHz PC playback, help please Thanks but I am not using a USB DAC. It is an Accustic Arts Tube DAC with AES/EBU Balanced digital lmput. The USB to Optical/coax can be viewed at http://www.roland.com/products/en/UA-25/ | |
| shelter 9000 opinions wow 97 views but not one opinion. No one else has this cartridge. Does anyone have the Air Tight PC1? | |
| Reference DACS: An overall perspective Thanks TeaJay for recommending the Accustic Arts Tube Dac. It is everything you said it was. I now look forward to listening to CD's as much as my vinyl. | |
| Best matching amp for Wilson W/P6, any sudgestions I just changed my AMP from the Levinson to Pass XA 160. The overall sound was richer with a larger soundstage. The individual background instruments became more noticeable and therefore three dimensional. The base is more defined. The Levinson thr... | |
| Reference DACS: An overall perspective Teajay am I correct that DAC does not have a built in master clock but the transports do. I use a Apogee BigBen reclocker with my 390s CD/Dac. Much improved but still a slightly bit too edgy. I am using a computer hard drive as my transport. Think... | |
| Cartridge comparison for best match You may also want to consider the Shelter 9000. I am using it on the TNT6 with 12.6 arm. Soon to be reviewed at the 10Audio Site. | |
| Sonos turns your house into an ipod I too believe the Zp80 is extremely good. But when I use the built in DAC of the Zp100 ,it was not true perfection. When the Zp80 was connected digitally to a good DAC, in my case Levinson 390S, there was no reduction in sound Quality. And perhaps... | |
| Balanced in phono stages preamp? I also have a BAT VKP10SE super Pak and have noticed significant improvement utilizing the balanced inputs. Also you can place the phono amp a distance from your pre amp by utilizing the balanced outputs. | |
| External Hard Drives w/audiophile component...help The Sonos music server system allows you to port to a high quality Dac . It will show album art but will not directly display on the TV. It has a wireless display. An attached Network Drive can be connected to the Sonos Hub. If you did use a compu... | |
| improving digital amp sound I have a Mark Levinson SS Pre Amp and Amp. My phono Stage is tubed. BAT Vk 10se. Its the best of both worlds. I tried Aesthetics tubed Pre Amp with SS amp but did not like it. |
