| Denafrips 12 anniversary The Terminator II/12 has my interest, although I’m still quite happy with the Terminator 1. I wasn’t wowed by the original T2 to justify the cost of upgrading. Fwiw, I’ve had the opportunity to listen to a couple Dac’s in the $10K range, (chord da... | |
| Break In Failed Geezus…Blankets, Out of phase wiring, positioning, Seems like a hell of a lotta effort for something your not going to listen to…my question is, how do you even know if all that does anything beneficial if your not listening to the speakers from j... | |
| Digital is far better than vinyl Comparing $8K digital setup to a $800 analog rig is pure genius. 😂 | |
| Best way to keep REL sub from “hopping around” at high volumes My DIY…Herbies Audio Labs “thin grungebuster discs”. Very grippy, not gooey, messy or marring. About as thin as a business card and they keep that bad boy in place. | |

The USB was another nice bump up. although I should note finding the right cable is what gave USB the win. In some inst... | |

| The Audiophile Recording "Anne Clark" Borderland Giving this a listen right now on Qobuz! | |
| Does Equipment Break In, or Does Our Hearing Adjust? Would be really interesting to make a recording of a new piece of gear on day 1 and then after 400 hours. | |
| What is the Best Sounding Stand Mount Speaker in the world? @yowser Reference 3A’s are magnificent. I have the Royal Virtuoso with the Corian cabinets and Beryllium tweeter. |
