Spectron III: has anyone heard it? I haven't heard the MIII, but having owned a MII, I didn't experience any of the operational problems Tom had. The only thing that concerned me was the strange noise it madewhen you turned it off. I'm told this has been fixed in the MIII.I thought... | |

Jitter issues with dacs.... Audioengr- thanks for your response. I know the measurementequipment is very expensive, but it would be interestingto find out what level of jitter reduction is required forbetter sound quality. It also appears, that the input receiver on some DAC... | |
Jitter issues with dacs.... Audioengr- have you measured the before and after jitter levels on the units you mod?I agree that the effects of reducing jitter are obvious. The system will sound much smoother and more dynamic. I findreducing/eliminating power supply noise to be... | |
Looking for an outstanding DAC Don't know what the rest of your system is, but you can eliminate the need for a separate DAC and preamp with a TacT M/S2150. Excellent sound amp. They just lowered theirpricing. | |
Audio Magic's Eclipse Warren- Been busy dedoing my system with the TacT gear. I see you use an integrated amp. You should take a look at their M/S2150, they just lowered their pricing. Aloha, Dan | |
Audio Magic's Eclipse Warren- First this is the music forum, wouldn't this subject be better suited for Tech Talk forum?"The Eclipse, though pricey, does it all, and does it VERY BIG! Uses 2 power cords to isolate digital from analog."Does this mean it has two magic ge... | |
Audiogon Music News April Ben- Thanks for the interesting report. Will the "bigger place," allow to to have a separate listening space away from the TV? ;-) Dan | |
Transport for a dCS Delius - HELP Gtb75- the $20.BG cap will help lower the power supply noise a bit, but if you plan to use the Philips as a transport, you should also replace the cheapcaps in the digital circuit path with N or NX series BGs.A Bybee Purifier in series with digita... | |
Digital jitter and disk treament tweak Andy- first, if there was jitter present at the time of the initial ADC process,it becomes parts of the recorded data and there's nothing you can do to correct it. You can only prevent adding to it. Jitter effects the high frequencies the most, ca... | |

Clocking your CD player/transport Harry- I know you're a dedicated audiophile with excellentequipment. I just think you get more bang for your buck improving the power supply path in digital equipment thaninternal or external clock circuits. Most of the internalclocks I've seen, r... | |
Clocking your CD player/transport Homer- It really depends on the type of power supply in your units- linear or switch mode, but do some research the Black Gate website. They have a number of tech reports which deal with this subject.Also, go to some of the various professional mo... | |
Clocking your CD player/transport Homer- with all due respect to my friend Harry, clean upthe power supplies in your units before messing with clockdevises. The major cause of jitter in digital equipment is power supply noise. All these clocks are bandaids not solutions. |
