| Cable droop Of all the droops I have to contend with this is the least worrisome. | |
| Sam here and this goes much deeper than i ever thought. I think the OP would fit right in over on that stylish computer audio forum | |
| New from Mad Scientist They have some weirdly interesting stuff. Tried to contact these guys a few times way before covid. No answer. Moved on. | |

| PS Direct Stream Vs. Lumin X 1 Sound quality difference? Let Mecani answer but I’ll add that fiber is thought to be the best connection on some other well known audio forums. Explained there in lots of technical detail as well. No personal experience so just passing along. But it’s yet another thing to ... | |
