| What CD players will accept an I2S connection with the PS Audio Direct Stream DAC ? Just for sake of clarity and terminology… a CD a player will have analog outs and doesn’t need a DAC but still may have a digital out to also be used with a DAC. But I bet you’d be hard pressed to find a “player” with I2s. A CD transport needs a ... | |
| Tone of Shindo I understand hearing something that sounds more ‘right’ or ‘correct’ for my music and ears than other things… So let’s maybe start with what it is you're looking for; Something close to the tone of Shindo… If Leben is close to that, then yes, grea... | |
| Puritan PSM156 @phillyb how long did you try the 156(?) and was it with the Puritan power cord? As you are describing exactly what I heard at first also. But after 2 weeks it was apparent that my sound was much more pure. What I came away thinking/realizing is s... | |
| A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport @jaudio1, I read the same in a YT comment and asked that in this thread already. Also, just checked the Audio Advisor website and sure enough, it says the transport will be available again in November. And just when I was poised to purchase in July… | |
| New Bluesound Node – First Impressions That sounds like 6 of one or half a dozen the other. Or as my wife likes to say, “that’s a 6/half” | |
| Suggest Transports that can be Demo'd at home You may have already acquired one but Audio Advisor caries the Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 and they have a 30day return policy. Look for the new thread here about it. | |
| A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport That’s great to hear Teajay. With less B&M dealers and a seemingly shrinking number of demo-able / trial period brands, we need more ‘philes to team up and plan comparisons. | |
| A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport @micro13, I’m just betting it’s gonna be a long while till that materializes. I’ve been waiting for how long now, for a comparison between Mojo EVO vs Holo May. Some comparisons happen faster and easier. This is another one, for a few reasons, I f... | |
| A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport @micro13, there are a couple or few posts comparing the Jay’s MK3 to the older MK2 that you can find in search. wig compared the two. | |

| A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport How noisy is the transport mechanism when running? I read a comment on a YT vid saying it was noisy and audible from 10ft away. The statement was from 2019, so maybe they’ve changed it? | |
| Puritan PSM156 @justjames72 McIntosh separates are certainly considered more ‘hi-fi’ than a HT receiver. And over $10k in separates would generally be though of to out perform a $2k all-in-one, so class and price-point would say yes, but I don’t know. All I know... | |
| Why dont more standalone DACs come with ethernet??? Bricasti seemed to of gotten it right though. Many have said they preferred the internal renderer option to an outboard option. | |
| Why dont more standalone DACs come with ethernet??? The Bricasti M3 has an Ethernet renderer option that is very good. I have thought the same thing and theorized that it will slowly ‘replace’ (well, you know, maybe just in addition to) USB over the next 5 years. Ethernet doesn’t have the same leve... | |
| What's up with Vinnie Rossi L2i SE? @cal3713 and with Vinnie being as nice and cool as he is, I wouldn’t be surprised either. You don’t always find a designer/manufacture who will do custom requests, so I can easily see someone as engaged as Vinnie is/was (when his forum was open) b... |
