| XLR or RCA for my new DAC Even my shittier discs (my cd player is a 101 disc carousel) that obviously were not the greatest recordings have truly come "alive". Can't find a better word to describe it. Even Iron Maiden "Live After Death" has more detail, and this is definit... | |
| XLR or RCA for my new DAC @fuzztone the 1582 is an HT processor. I'm using Simaudio Moon Titan HT200 5 channel amp... | |
| XLR or RCA for my new DAC Appreciate all the replies, thank you...I know it's all so subjective but I'll draw on those here who have much more experience than I as this is my first DAC. I have always used Transparent ic's and speaker cables. Though I'm going to try Voodoo ... | |
| Need some quick expert opinions trying to decide between 3 DAC's Thank you all for responding. I'd like to keep it under $500 which is why I am looking at these 3. I listen to everything from Diana Krall to Iron Maiden. I really prefer something on the warmer detailed side with a nice wide soundstage. My speaks... | |
| Are your current amps and other gear the best you've ever had? Much as I love my Dynaudio Evokes (they've brought me much closer than the Excites did) I will always miss my Dynaudio Audience 82's. The Evoke 50's are pretty special for sure but the Audience 82's were just pure magical. Though in all fairness t... | |
| Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? I would have to say B&W. I went and auditioned the CDM1NT back in the day and thought they were tremendous! I bought them on the spot. However after extended periods of listening my ears would ring (yes I must confess I do like to listen at lo... | |
| DAC for carousel cd player? Thank you @soix great advice. Kinda sucks as the Modius is out of stock right now, but worth the wait I guess. Think I'll take your advice and go that route...Thank you again for all the advice my friend, sincerely appreciated! | |
| DAC for carousel cd player? Thank you @soix and @jasonbourne52!I will have to use the toslink to connect the dac to my cd player. I have it narrowed down to the Schiit Modius and the Cambridge Audio DacMagic 100...Can't thank you all enough for your advice and recommendation... | |
| DAC for carousel cd player? Wow, great thank you so much for responding and explaining chayro!Hadn't thought about budget as I wasn't even sure if this made sense to do and if it was even possible...That said I guess I'd like to keep it under 1K if possible?Thank you again f... | |
| Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp Thanks @rushfan71, of course I get your point us Rush fans truly speak the same language:) | |
| Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp @rushfan71 (I am also a true Rush worshipper) my intent on this post was more to hear others' opinions and experiences as to whether it makes more sense for synergy purposes to stick with the same manufacturer throughout your system as far as cabl... | |
| Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp But a used Super would certainly be nice if I could find one :) | |
| Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp Thank you @mwh777 ! Appreciate you following up and clarifying, and for the added detail. And I so know the market has been dry lately for Transparent cords, I've been hunting religiously, LOL! But I've only been hunting here and Ebay. I'll expand... | |

But this is a place where I respect the opinions/experience/advice of all of you and always appreciate anyone just taking the time to respond. I... | |
| Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp Thanks so much for the replies! @mwh777 very insightful and helpful! Always great to hear from a fellow Transparent owner. Great call on trying out the Transparent before parting with the Shunyata and looking at upgrading the High Performance for ... |
