| MHDT or Border Patrol Just got the Border Patrol Se-i and it's a wonderful. Exhibiting all the characteristics described here in this thread for the MHDT and you shut the tube on or off to your liking. Built in the US (not Taiwan) and the support from Gary is fantastic... | |
| Need Help- Bel Canto 2.7 or Chord Hugo 2 for Desktop setup Thank you Captain Obvious...Did you just drop in to troll or are you here to help offer some insight, experiences or opinions on the devices? $700 cheaper than what btw? | |
| Need Help- Bel Canto 2.7 or Chord Hugo 2 for Desktop setup I didn't say I liked it enough to decide. If you read what I said above I mentioned it sounded a little forward. I need to listen to it in my own system. | |
| Need Help- Bel Canto 2.7 or Chord Hugo 2 for Desktop setup are you running the 2.7 as well? | |
| Need Help- Bel Canto 2.7 or Chord Hugo 2 for Desktop setup Thank you for the reply...I am listening to the BC as I type this, came today and I am about 30 minutes in. Neither the speakers or DAC are even close to burned in, so I am reserving overall judgement. With that said, first impressions of the BC, ... | |
| Harbeth P3Es2 or Spendor S3/5 thanks guys....I will look into the brands mentioned here, although I gotta tell you the Spendors are on my short list at this point after all the positive press I have read. I would be matching these with a VTL IT-85, which is use the lovely EL-3... | |
| Harbeth P3Es2 or Spendor S3/5 Interesting, thanks for the feedback gentlemen. I like SE version of the spendor with the Scanspeak tweeter. A little more dynamism supposedly, which is nice to have in the mix. They aren't necessarily cheap speakers for a second system, but I hea... | |
| would usb sound better than a sound card I have a Cosecant, so it should be able to reveal the difference. You're on a Crimson right? Anyway, thanks for the information! | |
| would usb sound better than a sound card Steve, are you sure about this? I am on Tiger and have been on the fence about Leopard, but trust your opinion since you have a Wavelength DAC. Did you really hear a difference? And how can I confirm the drivers were updated? | |
| PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER Digital to Analog conversion is perfectly appropriate for this forum as well. | |
| PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER Psacanli-"Wavelength company" is one man, Gordon Rankin. He doesn't have marketing reps, or salesman, and quite honestly doesn't seem interested at all in being anything remotely close to "mainstream". I too defend and promote Wavelength, consider... | |
| iMac Sound Quality Kana813-I never recommended going with a USB SPDIF converter, not sure one exists actually. But then again, you make things up as you go anyway, so not surprised...SPDIF sucks, much like most of the information you contribute to these threads. And... | |
| PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER I think some of us are missing the point in terms of a Wavelength DAC, even some of the owners. The convenience FACTOR is nothing more than a sideshow when speaking about these DACs, and we should not lose sight of the fact that the sound quality ... | |
| PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER One other thing I forgot to add...Who said anything about "Fraction of the cost"??? Particularly in this hobby, there is little rationale to the $$ we spend on this equipment. And I tend to agree that you don't always have to spend gobs of cash to... | |
| PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER Tpk123-Not to sound overly cliche here, and being a Cosecant owner, take it for what it's worth; but you get what you pay for in this case. A Wavelength DAC is a tried and true audiophile grade DAC, that is custom designed with a tubed output stag... |
