| Notifications when someone comments on my virtual system I think maybe you have to have "someone mentions me" checked in your account profile, but I could be wrong. | |
| Notifications when someone comments on my virtual system Thanks. Too bad you can't get a notification email when someone comments. | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? I think it is perfectly reasonable to report that you weren't happy with the particular VTV model you have, but to lump all products that use the Purifi module in the same bucket is pretty rediculous. I haven't personally heard any products that u... | |
| Recommendation for a replacement speaker cable @ozzy - where did you buy the solid silver wire and the carbon sleeved jacket? | |
| How a pair of Mark Levinson ML2 stands with the best amps today ? These were all great amps. I owned an ML-2, ML-3 and No 23.5 in the mid 80's. I started with an ML-2 but I was driving Magneplaner Tympani-IVs in a very large room. At low volumes, it was absolutely exquisite, but it ran out of power at louder vol... | |
| Bryston BDP-1 vs Bluesound Node 2i I have a BDP-2 with upgraded IAD board. Also have a few BS Node 2is. Connected to my Schiit Yggdrasil A2 and Denafrips Terminator, the difference is definitely noticeable, particularly comparing AES connection from the Bryston compared to SPDIF fr... | |
| HDMI (i2s) recommendations for Denafrips Gaia -> Terminator @docroasty - took your advice and ordered a 0.75m Tubulus Argentus. Thanks for the help. My Gaia arrived yesterday, so I've only got about 24 hours on it, but it's definitely an improvement. Imaging is sharper, a bit more detail, and bass has more... | |
| SuperBestAudioFriends It is still broken. | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? That was the least of the issues I pointed out. But oh well.. | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? The power supply has at least as much influence on the sound as does the input buffer, so "all that is left" is not just the Purifi module. Further, the Hypex input buffer was never intended as a finished product. It is about as simple a circuit a... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? @douglas_schroeder - I don't think you read this thread very carefully. This isn't about DIY (although I don't personally share your skepticism about DIY). The OP purchased a commercial product using the Purifi module, a basic SMPS and cheap input... | |
| Purifi Class D: Junk? To be fair, Purifi does not sell their module with this input buffer. In fact, they don't sell their products to the public at all except to the DIY community. The amp you bought includes a buffer that wasn't even designed with the Purifi module i... | |
| HDMI (i2s) recommendations for Denafrips Gaia -> Terminator @docroasty - I appreciate your input. It does give me a bit more confidence to try one or two of the artisan cables. At least many of these are specifically intended for use as an i2s interconnect, which is more than you can say about AQ. As you p... | |
| HDMI (i2s) recommendations for Denafrips Gaia -> Terminator I am aware of the issues with i2s, and agree that keeping the cable length short is desirable. Most devices that support I2S between boxes (including the Denafrips products) use additional buffering (generally LVDS - low voltage differential signa... | |
| HDMI (i2s) recommendations for Denafrips Gaia -> Terminator That's good to hear that you didn't have problems with the longer tubulus cable. Did you have a change to compare the Vodka 48 to the Tubulus?My Gaia should arrive Monday or Tuesday and I'm going to try it out with the AES cable I have first, and ... |
