| Alternative to Tellurium Q Silver Diamond XLR Silver Diamond? What equipment are you listening to it on? | |
| Alternative to Tellurium Q Silver Diamond XLR Why would you ever do a home audition of a cable you know you can't afford. It's like test driving a car you can't afford. Just a great way to torture yourself. Either save for it or just let it go and be happy with a lesser cable..You wil never r... | |
| Pass Labs vs. Sugden I just ordered an A21Se...Sugden is a different approach, first in Class A before Pass, so there's a history there. If Pass made something smaller I would have considered but it's gigantic, gets hotter than Sugden and has a thirst for blood with t... | |
| Any one has experience with Sugden Integrated? Just bought one...Have a little concern about the heat since it will be a part of a desktop based system. It was really the only way for me get a musical piece of equipment without dealing with the size of tube integrateds. I also consider Class A... | |
| MSB select II vs all dacs ? Yep, definitely not grinding an axe here either, this is the truth. Ask around and you quickly find out about his interactions with others, mainly US dealers. I know of two US dealers who recently expressed interest in carrying the Rockna line but... | |
| How good is MSB Discrete Dac? Chord Dave and MSB Discrete two completely different approaches to hifi sound. Chord Dave is not a smooth DAC at all. I will stop short of saying it's analytical but it compartmentalizes the sound, MSB is musical and smooth. If you like being dist... | |
| MSB select II vs all dacs ? I've dealt with Worldwidewholesales in a transaction, Bob Neil is not an honest fair guy to deal with. He flat out doesn't listen to the buyer needs, could care less what you have in your system, could care less about anything but talking about hi... | |
| Point of higher priced streamer? I didn't feel like reading through the volleyball match of one-sided opinions on this entire thread, so maybe you mentioned it. What DAC do you have? I mean, I'd say yeah it won't make a huge impact on a lower end DAC, but it's a FACT a streamer m... | |
| Server/Streamer or Streamer/DAC? What is it about the more expensive streamers that provide better quality sonics? Anyone want to tackle that one? I am in the process of considering adding a streamer to replace my Macbook (via usb) direct to my DAC. I just want to get to the bott... | |

| Rockna Wavelight thoughts? I just got the Wavelight DAC and my first night with it was fantastic. It's an excellent DAC, super smooth, balanced and dynamic. I've listened to alot of gear over the last few months and this is by far the best digital I have heard yet. | |
| Review on the Rockna Audio Wavelight Pre/DAC just went up on Stereo Times @yyzsantabarbara What you need to understand about the Audiobyte is the implementation of the DAC is completely different than the Wavelight. They DO NOT sound the same. Same designer, not same sound. The Wavelight sonically is an FPGA R2R (ladder... | |
| Props to Black Cat Cables Hate to say it but Black Cables are NOT cheap cables in terms of price. Not sure where the value discussion is here in relation to how they sound. Would love a pair but the recommended ICs for my system $2k!! | |
| Remote Control (Passive) Preamp I second the recommendation for Tortuga. Best solution out there to add a volume and some tube varnish. | |
| Denafrips Ares II Also, does the black ice even have async for USB? |
