Irish,Nice system! I have the DAC-3 Signature which came before the 3.1x so I know your digital sounds great, and I use Lexus speaker cables too! The Oto is supposed to be a sweet little amp and AN TT's are very musical looks like a well thought o...

Irish,I am sure the anticipation is tough my speakers took about 12 weeks to arrive and it was agony! Would love to hear your impressions when they arrive and also curious what AN gear are you running?Cheers,Jon

I've gotten better advice from industry experts than from the forums, and I've gotten tons of great advice here. Not everyone in the industry is here to take your money most are audiophiles too and love to talk audio. And the smart ones know the p...

Charles,In Vu's Audio Note room they have the E's in the corners on the back wall and opposite on the front wall either J's or K's in a conventional setup. Glad you enjoyed the system pics I finally got around to taking a bunch of new photos. And ... 
Harbeth M30.1+Luxman LX-380 & Audio Note AN-E/SPe Oto SE Sig
Charles,No I am unable to use corner placement due to the layout of my apartment. There is a photo on my system page showing the setup, it's fairly conventional. In fact Vu recently asked me to email him a pic of my setup for another customer who ... 
Harbeth M30.1+Luxman LX-380 & Audio Note AN-E/SPe Oto SE Sig
Charles agreed and Vu has never steered me wrong. He never tries to sell me he lets me sell myself by giving good advice and letting me listen to great gear. I called him once about noise in my system, assuming a tube was going bad, he correctly d...

Newbie Looking for Advice on Streaming Music
@audioengr Hi Steve I was looking at the Synchromesh on your site and I think I am reading this right. There is an option for an output that down-samples to 16/44.1 correct? My DAC just does redbook and I have issues when inadvertently streaming M...
