| Non-Oversampling (NOS) vs, NOS is the better way to go.From my experience over the years I learnt the best way to achieve the sound I want is to keep things simple,all kind of sound "manipulation" gear maybe genuinely trying to improve the sound but in the end just making t... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? OS doesn’t meant that it improve the sound .bits are bits what’s matter is the original sampling the music was recorded if in the first place the studio made poor low resolution recording no oversampling DAC/transport in the world will made things... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? I am a bit suspicious about the Nuprime CDT approach to oversamples the PCM signal incoming to the DAC and I am not sure if it’s not harm the sound, I prefer the native approach of the Jay Audio CDT2 to transfer the signal as is and let your DAC t... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? It’s really hard to answer your questions because what seems good theoretically can be sound awfull on your system. The best advice I can give is to make demo and listen what is best for your ears. | |
| Home demo. ProAc D48R and Spendor D9 The ATC SCM 40 is not in the same league with the D9 and the D48 this 2 options are much better and you are correct the ATC are power hungry speakers, the other two are more efficient , anyway they are both excellent choices and I am sure you'll ... | |
| Home demo. ProAc D48R and Spendor D9 @milpai Yes I agree with you many here who search for advice have a fixation on what they want to buy and they tend to listen only to comments that favour the gear they wanted to buy in the first place and ignore recommendations for other brands. | |
| Home demo. ProAc D48R and Spendor D9 "However the D48R wins hands down on soundstage width, height and pinpoint accuracy of vocals etc. Just marvellous."A quotation from the OP .I don’t understand his choice either ,if everything is better with the D48 except the bass (that can be tu... | |
| Suggest Transports that can be Demo'd at home @stuartk To clarify, the Moon 260T ( the version without build in dac) cost 2K and not 3-4K . Simaudio is very reliable brand and will support their products on long term basis . However I can understand your position ,the CXC is a fine transport ... | |
| Home demo. ProAc D48R and Spendor D9 The D30RS has one of the best bass I ever heard ; fast, taught , controlled and very deep.Below a thread how good this speakers are compared to the old version 30R and the ATC SCM40 :https://hifiwigwam.com/forum/topic/129233-even-briefer-review-of... | |
| Suggest Transports that can be Demo'd at home @stuartk If you are on tight budget the CXC is the best option you’ll find.it’s an excellent transport for its price. I used the CXC for 2 years till I bought the Moon 260T which is clearly better however not a day and night difference between the... | |
| Suggest Transports that can be Demo'd at home georeghifiI read your comment about CXC Vs. Moon 260T ( not 260D with built in DAC) and must disagree . I owned the CXC which is a great transport for its price but felt that is not exactly hi end gear and after less than 2 yearsof use I ordered t... | |
| Suggest Transports that can be Demo'd at home If you buy the CEC you really don’t need a reclocker because this CD transport has very low jitter. | |
| Suggest Transports that can be Demo'd at home Check C.E.C. excellent belt-drive trsnsports. | |
| New Gallo Strata's sound like tin-cans: break-in time problem? Six years old speakers means nothing .they should work properly regardless the date of the production. | |
| Home demo. ProAc D48R and Spendor D9 It’s not only a matter of break in but also a synergy with your system. the D48 can sound better with your system but the D9 can sound better than the D48 on other system. Don’t except mirracales to happen after full break in of the D9. |
