| Music Server with no DAC? The Berkeley Alpha DAC surely blows away - and I mean really blows away the Transporter, particularly at 24/192.Is this speculation on your part, or have you actually heard the two in the same system and compared? Have you seen the interior of a B... | |
| Music Server with no DAC? Just my $0.02. Its a great unit, esp w the Modwright Signature treatment.I'll add .02 more cents and you'll have all of .04 cents towards your new Transporter. A big second vote for the Modwright Signature TP as a superb digital front end, either ... | |
| Upgrading iTunes Artwork Highlighting all the songs in a albumBring up file and get info. Page pops upFind the image in goggle imagesdrag over and no go.What the heck is happening.Are the CD's you've ripped to iTunes formatted as .WAV files? If so, per my response above, ... | |
| soliloquy 5.3 and 5.3i Thanks for saving me the trouble, Rene. I've heard both versions and liked both, but the metal drivers did take longer to break in on a speaker that had a notoriously long break-in time in the first place. Other than that, both are excellent speak... | |
| Are all "Floor Protectors"& TipToes Created Equal? You might want to check out the coupling discs that Starsound Technologies (Sistrum) offer as well. I use their stands and they are superb and make a significant difference, especially in front-end performance. | |
| Jeff Beck "performing this week" OMG I use teh audio hijack pro.Thanks, Synthfreek! That looks like a good option. I was hoping one of the native MacApps would do the trick, but for $32 that looks like a good way to go. Thanks for the response - Chazro too! | |
| Who gets your system and music after you are gone? Funny you should ask this; I just got an email informing me that I'd just inherited 10 million US Dollars from a relative I never new I had in Nigeria. It's a small world after all! | |
| Jeff Beck "performing this week" OMG On a seemingly unrelated topic, but because someone here (Chazro) mentioned it; can anyone tell me how to extract the digital audio files from a music DVD like this? The Beck DVD has performances on it that are not available on CD and I'd like to ... | |
| How do you remove a tube Key? I've had that happen once with an NOS tube, Jim. You can glue it back on with some two part JB Weld and it should be as good as new. Obviously take care to put it back exactly as it was so the key orients the pins properly. It certainly makes gett... | |
| 12bh7 TUBES Per above, ask the manufacturer of the amp. They are not identical. | |
| Tube testers- I've heard grumbling of a ...... Grumble, grumble, grumble | |
| Solo Violin...suggestions. This is one of those dejavu threads, so you may get more recommendations as well as repeats of the excellent recommendations above. I'll add my own, neither of which have been mentioned yet, but I'm sure I've echoed on other threads:Bach Works for... | |
| Jeff Beck "performing this week" OMG Yes - keep spreading the word. Thx should really go to Jim for starting this thread. I've already sent off a few emails to friends I know will enjoy this one. Yes, sorry, I did mean to be extending my thanks to Jim (the OP) for starting the thread... | |
| Jeff Beck "performing this week" OMG I also thought Imogen Heap was in superb form - the disc is worth the price just for her two tracks alone.ABSOFUCKINTIVELY! Those are two GREAT cuts. That's saying a lot too as the entire set is outstanding, and the band is remarkable - not a wea... | |
| DAC with the best midrange ever..... The MHDT Havana bests the Paradisea and is priced accordingly. I tried to like the Benchmark (new and old versions) but did not like either one. My favorite is my current Modwright Transporter. It's one of the most natural sounding DAC's I've hear... |
