| PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC + Bridge Can't speak to the bridge (which I eagerly await), but I have an early PW DAC, which has been pretty much glitch free. There may be some hiccups with the bridge, but my experience, and what I've read on the boards, has me pretty confident. Like ot... | |
| John Prine Good call on the lyric Hazard. One of his best."Mind all your manners, be quiet as a mouse,one day you'll have a home that's as big as house"John | |
| Monitor speaker that will stop the Quest? "Loving them so much they're for sale less than three weeks later!"He did say he is selling them "with considerable remorse." :)J | |
| John Prine Yes, John Prine makes a good effort live, definitely worth seeing. Jason Wilber, who plays guitar with him, and also works on his own, is very good indeed. John | |
| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. Seconding Dodgealum on Jesse Sykes. Definitely some unnerving stuff on "Reckless Burning." Julie Miller on "Broken Things" a bit off the path too.And yes, we do love Margo. :)John | |
| Finding a Power Cord that sounds great I am using the new BPT powercord, and also the new BPT interconnect, to very nice effect in my system. Like Jrn, I recommend them. John | |
| Why are server setups so costly relative to CDP's? Regards the OP, one can get under 1k with a PC set up, using one of the numerous inexpensive but well regarded USB dacs (which I've not auditioned). But it is worth pointing out that things can add up pretty fast, with cabling, and an external har... | |
| What is your favorite Chick Corea CD/Album? Fans might try "Duet" with Hiromi. She's incredible: "Beyond Standard" with her band, and "In the Garden" with Stanley Clarke arevery fine. Fun footage of her and CC on youtube. John | |
| amarra or pure music..? Dmailer: I have the PM 1.02; is the 1.3 a free upgrade.? Apparently they didn't debug the skipping track problem you describe, b/c I have that too. Had a couple of other guys over last night, and there was a strong consensus that PM is a nice impr... | |
| Review: Swan Active Desktop MKIII (Mark 3) Monitor Mine are set up "master/slave": the unit with the amp runs off interconnect to headphone jack, and then it's a shot of speaker wire to the second box. That's what made me wonder what wire set up could be used; is the III configured the same way? J | |
| what percentage of us really knows sound Not only is Juancgenao brave, he's smarter than almost everyone else in the *whole world*. Thanks for sharing! I hadn't heard, and I think it's pretty cool. John | |
| Review: Swan Active Desktop MKIII (Mark 3) Monitor Not surprised you are enjoying your Swans. I've had the original version for a few years, and find them to be surprisingly musical. Exactly what kind of wiring did you use?John | |
| amarra or pure music..? Have not tried Amarra, which seems awfully $y for software.Pure Music is certainly inexpensive, and seems to makes some improvement in sound for my rig. The visuals for the controls are uninspiring, a sort of kludgy cut and paste onto the iTunes i... | |
| Flexi-Rack Maintenance Question Hey Kenny. I'd not re-oil any time soon. If it was overloaded, let it work itself out. I didn't wax, so I can't say, but one thing I like about the oil is how easy it is to touch up and make corrections as needed. John | |
| Anyone successful in dealing with Tinnitus? David12:Do you have an alternative to syringing for ear wax? I've not had the experience of it aggravating tinnitus, and it certainly improves my hearing, if done from time to time. John |
