| PS Audio Power Plants Took my P5 out of the system. Made it lifeless. Replaced with another mfr's device, cheaper but better sound. Last time I said something bad about PSA my post was deleted, we'll see this time. | |
| Anyone had the equipment customized ? I had Noble Electronics modify a DAC. It came back a different unit, sound much improved. However, the money paid for these services is almost never recaptured when you sell the unit. In my case, about $1000. | |
| Audio Converter Software OP, what are the specific sound quality issues you are having with foobar and dbpoweramp? | |
| Who are some of elite sub woofers? REL for audio. JL is better for home theatre. SVS is not "elite" (the OP's words), it's for the masses. | |

| A comparison between two DACs, one R-2R, the other ES 9038-based. I’m one who could be inclined to question the capability of the supporting equipment. I’ve heard plenty of differences between DACs and other components.I’m sure you can identify the poster that sticks to a dogmatic opinion about the impossibility... | |
| Where to hear ATC speakers Goodwins outside of BostonI have the 19v2s. Best small speaker I've heard. | |
| Favorite band or artist of all time? Root Boy Slim and The Sex Change BandEyeless in Gaza | |
| blu-ray audio Not sure why "lossless" is being tossed around. No where in the process or equipment mentioned is there any conversion to lossy files. And, PCM is lossless. | |
| Best song for immediate impact when presenting or testing? +1 Factory Girl | |
| insurance and shipping with UPS I avoid the UPS problem by using FedEx. I learned the hard way and will never look back. | |
| How to find the good CD recordings? The Dynamic Range Database site is a good reference for researching dynamic range. For older recording with multiple releases/masterings over the years it is interesting to watch the DR sucked right out of the recordings on the newer issues.Betwee... |
