| VPI phono cables. Is there better synergy? .Phono cables... difficult choice for so many reasons... give Morrow Audio PH2s or PH3s a try (60 day money back if not satisfied)... I tried the PH2s and was amazed at the results and the price to performance is very surprising... no affiliation ... | |
| Ideas for making a soundproof box for MacMini? .Sidssp... yeah, I was thinking all that, and I think you're right... I spotted some sound foam on the net and think I'll give it a try. It's called AcoustiPack ULTIMATE PC Soundproofing Kit... anyone have any experience with it? Seems inexpensiv... | |

| What is your routine for break-in of cd player .Trelja... interesting your thoughts reflecting your experience... this seems to echo my experience with the break-in of cables: PCs, ICs, and SCs. Run them for 12 hours, chill them for an hour, resume burn-in. Seems to work well.:) listening,Ed. | |
| Higher End USB Cables Pardales and Mb9061... the RSA USB Poiema is a really good cable, and another 'gonner who probably might read this thread just traded up to the RSA Alethias USB cable... which is quite a statement because of his and other's initial skepticism. If ... | |
| If you could replace one link... .Dan... jmo, but mostly I think you should start at the power source, not the music source... power cords are where it's at if you are trying to do the "one thing." (another place in the system later).Power cords for the DAC first? Not really. Ide... | |
