| pass labs xa30 to valve amplifier. I've used XA30.5 before. It was one of the best SS amp I've used before. I've moved on to tubes, or valves, and now I own ARC VSi60. It's one of the best amp I've heard. | |
| What will be the data storage method of the future Cloud storage is probably not going to "take care" of your data as much as you could. However it will make the backups much easier and more reliable than anyone could. | |
| What will be the data storage method of the future Cloud is definitely the future, but it's not in the line of the progression of music storage. For those who already have music in digital format, the cloud storage is a no brainer. Even if the cloud is not the main storage, it will serve as a back... | |
| sibilence....any cures out there? Diana Krall has naturally sibilant singing style. If you don't hear Diana's sibilance the system may not be resolving enough. | |
| Warm CD player for older CDs with digital glare? What you hearing may be a simple bad mastering. Or it could be one of those rare pre-emphasized CD and your CD player doesn't de-emphasize it properly. Instead of purchasing a new CD player I would look to find a newer release of the same album wi... | |
| CD Sound Quality -- please help educate me Another way to answer the question is today's DAC is better than DAC 10 years ago NOT because today's DAC is capable of 24/192, but it's better in every way including the capability of handling 24 bits. Don't look at just bitrate spec. Today's DAC... | |
| Is ASIO4all really for all music servers? ASIO was designed in Windows XP days. Nowadays the Windows standard WASAPI is probably more widely used.It will not improve anything. It will allow bypassing Windows kernel sound module called kmixer, providing less interference to the audio repro... | |
| What does this mean ? Short answer is *maybe*. Technically you can run a DLNA server that Olive can stream the music data off the network. There are a couple of complications because* although DLNA is a standard protocol, each device has varying capability and not all ... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? George, I agree with your assessment. The measurement listed for each optocoupler was god, but could have been much better. Where can I get closer matched quad of NSL32SR2S? Can I get them from you?The chassis I used was sourced from a shop in asi... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I've built the Lightspeed attenuator with the kit purchased from Uriah a couple of months ago. I'm pretty impressed. I love the utterly simple design! The sound is pretty transparent. It works pretty well with GTA tube amp. The only concern is the... | |
| What stand mount monitors works w/ Pass XA 30.5? My Focal Electra 1037BE worked quite well with XA 30.5, and I'd imagine 1007BE would also work well. | |
| ARC VS-115 Amp with new KT-120 Tubes I also have VSi60, and I've been curious about trying the new KT tubes on my amp. It sounds like the KT 120 sounds better than 6550 overall. Is there any downside using KT tubes however? I wonder why ARC sticks to the old 6550 tubes instead of KT ... | |
| Ayre QB-9 USB DAC My comments are not directed at specific member. Rather I was commenting on the "situation" in this thread. Personally I would care less if Tranquility is the best thing since sliced bread or not. Some prefer NOS DAC. Some prefer Sony PS1. Some pr... | |
| Ayre QB-9 USB DAC Feel the same way as Horacio. I'm usually open minded about audio components, but when year old thread is resurrected just to promote a competing product by small number of people that cross post to several different threads, it makes me wonder. I... | |
| Recording Vinyl to iMac questions.. 24/96 resolution is more than enough. Noise floor of most high end DACs is 20-22 bits. I'd imagine the recording resolution of Duet is probably between 18-20 bits. Also 24/192 will take up way too much space to be practical.I don't perform any pro... |
