Uptone Audio EtherREGEN review
@jl1ny   Don't listen to those idiots on ASR..Honestly, search the threads and see how they treat people..It's just a group of bitter dicks who can't afford anything hifi who live in their Mom's basements.  Just find ways to listen to items wit... 
Network Switches
@tecknik    You really didn't understand a word I said. Reread it again, and again and again. Until it sinks in. This isn't a competition...I have LPS and I have switch mode PS, depends on what you are powering. Again, reading comprehension is v... 
Network Switches
@tecknik tecknik And LPS and a wal wart (switching power supply) serve two difference purposes. You have no idea what you are talking about...There are times when a switching power supply is best because it's a faster power supply and the signal ... 
A revolutionary way to raise the performance of your system for very little money
I've had the 106, then upgraded to the 156, it made a small improvement, maybe..It was the Groundmaster that REALLY made a difference. System took a huge leap forward. Everything was just clearer, highs were a little more forward and voices were s... 
Best Server To Run Roon Core
@alephresearch   I just removed a MacMini M1 and replaced it with a Nucleus as a test to see if the hype is real. I am here to tell you, IT IS REAL. The nucleus was literally like I lifted a curtain..And I have a gigafoil working "isolate" the s... 
Higher End DACs
I know this is an older thread...But for anyone reading through it, as I did, @djones51 is categorically incorrect on ever single front.   
Puritan PSM156
@merlin66    Your weak spot is your equipment trust me it's not the Puritan. Rotel is glorified Onkyo.  I can say without a doubt after auditioning, A/Bing Shunyata, AQ etc the Puritan makes an audible difference that none of the others did. I ... 
Sugden Integrated IA-4 versus Ayre AX-7
I have an Ia4 and an A21 SE...Firehazard my a**. no idea where the above poster came up with that. I sense some favoritism of Ayre, which I like. It's a much dryer sound than Sugden though. Sugden is lush, truthful, detailed spacious and airy. All... 
Any one has experience with Sugden Integrated?
Love my A21SE, having used it for several months now and can say this amp is the best value (and probably best sounding) amp I have ever owned. I've been an Audiophile on and off for well over 20 years and heard alot of memorable pieces and this o... 
MSB vs dCS Bartok
MSB is interconnect sensitive and impedance sensitive. Look to your amp and pre amp. Make sure you run the MSB as a preamp in any troubleshooting before you cast final judgement on the sound of the dac.  
VTL Service ??
And even 2021 VTL has the worst Customer service..Some things never change. I own a IT 85 which I enjoy the sound of had a question and got nothing but agida from the conversation with Bea..She is literally a mental midget. They truly do not under... 
Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO...
I have the ENO for a few days now and nothing but dropped signals. No thanks. Thankfully they let you audition it.  
DAC for Bricasti Design M5 Network Player
@emergingsoul TT2 is a cold analytical DAC. Good resolution but I got seriously bored with that DAC after about 2 weeks.  
Bricasti M3 vs. Holo Audio May vs. PS Audio DS
Accurate= note musical 
Bricasti M3 vs. Holo Audio May vs. PS Audio DS
@hgeifman You considered the MSB which is twice the cost of what you bought? I can assure you have listened to both the MSB is twice as good as the M3...Unless you prefer bright sounding gear.
