Terminator II or Rockna Wavedream Edition (non signature version) which one to buy and why
Yes, curious to know what @in_shore replaced the WD pairing with… but I do realize this is a year old thread…   
New Lampizator Baltic4 or demo/used one?
One thing you could ask yourself is, do you want to invest and tube roll DHTs or 6SN7, etc?   
Is Bob Weir Redefining State of the Art Recording?
@jsalerno277 “However, I hear the thickness of studio processing.”  Yep. I heard or read somewhere that this release has quite a lot of work done to it in the studio, even re-recording some vocals, etc…   
Is Bob Weir Redefining State of the Art Recording?
Maybe they are talking about Bobby’s Wolf Brothers Live at Red Rocks release, as it is a very very good sounding recording. OR they are referring to Bobby’s TRI Studios which has a state of the art Myer Sound Constellation System. Have a read up o... 
Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2
@knownothing good for you! So many people on here drop in a cable or component and sit right down to asses. For transparent/high resolution systems, 48hours of settling is safe and what I’ve tracked over and over. Heck, I can jostle or move a cabl... 
T and A D 200 Dac
Lots of ways to refer to it and evidently not many have heard it yet:     
Holo Audio May DAC
Ana(dia)log has also added an in-room/atmospheric sonic comparison vid. So make sure to check out that one too.    
Harbeth 40.3's. Should I buy them?
Before these 40.2 Anniversaries I have now, I had two different pairs of Daedalus Audio speakers (Ulysses, then Argos) Lou is the best! They are natural and organic sounding and not to just a percentage degree like some speakers. They truly are th... 
Harbeth 40.3's. Should I buy them?
I have 40.2 40th Anniversaries in a large acoustically treated 18.5 x 23 room w/ 9-12’ ceiling. They are 7’4” out into the room, 7’9” apart, and almost 5’ from side walls. I do have them on shorter stands (by inches). Even with this placement and ... 
QStab NSE CD Stabilizer/ Highly Recommended for Jay's/Avatar CD Transport!
I wasn’t getting responses back over email either but he did respond to my YT comment about these and said he would have some in like 14 days. Maybe he got tired of emailing people back to say he didn’t have any. This was a week ago or so. But I d... 
Any Comments on the T+A DH200 DAC
Just for clarification, there’s the DAC 200, which is a DAC w/ a preamp stage (vol control and analog ins) and there is the HA 200 which is a headphone amp, w/ no preamp section and no analog ins. But those may be the only differences of the two p... 
Bricasti Model 1 Series II DAC
Well this was a quiet release. Thanks to this thread, I am now aware the M1 has been updated past the somewhat recent MDx board upgrade option.  I look forward to reading more details about the Series II sonic qualities.   
DAT - what to do with Panasonic SV-3700
Any of those three Rec inputs from your transport, through the XLR analog outputs …but I wonder if you’ll have to have Rec/Play engaged with a tape loaded. And aes/ebu is digital XLR   
DAT - what to do with Panasonic SV-3700
I did concert and field recording and owned a Panasonic 3700, Sony R300 and a Tascam DAP1. I kept the Tascam and ended  up just tossing the other two, as no one wanted them, even for $100.  If  the 3700 has a digital input, give it a try!  
Herron vs Vinnie Rossi vs a million other options
I’ve owned the Herron pre, the LIO (DHT) and now the Vinnie Rossi L2 Signature preamp (DHT). The LIO w/ DHT’s will have the more delineated separation of images and the full-bodied tonality. Also good air with the right tubes. Lots of colors to ch...
