| If Steely Dan had a different vocalist Very few songs have struck as much at first listen as The Royal Scam. This is a song I cannot ever get enough of, especially cranked up! I have been listening to Steely Dan for over 40 years, but only a few years ago actually heard The Royal Scam ... | |
| Which HDMI cable for I2S? I have Transparent throughout in my main system. When I added a second system I gave some DH Labs cables a try. Their Mirage USB has got to be one of the better bargains out there. Can't go wrong with DHL at any of their levels... | |
| Upgrading to a stand alone DAC I will absolutely second the Topping E70 Velvet. If this isn't the most underrated DAC in the sub 1K price range, I don't know what is. Helomech is spot on. Save 1K and grab the E70 V....It also has balanced connections... | |
| Can a DAC do triple duty? Hi @davidchampa, Funny you should ask this question. What I have found very interesting is that when streaming through the Eversolo I have found the sound to be much more "alive". And I noticed this immediately! Best way to describe it, music jus... | |
| Class D Option For Bass I’ll absolutely second the Buckeye Amps recommendation! Give them a look. | |
| Herbie Audio Lab - Tenderfoot I have Herbie's under just about every component. I have never removed the stock feet from any of my components. With my Earthquake Cinenova Grande amp I have the tenderfeet under the stock feet just to give the amp more lift for breathability pur... | |
| Can a DAC do triple duty? Awesome! Thank you for the replies! Seals it. Topping (btw, this DAC blew me away right out of the gate) is packing up for the move😊! It’ll be connected to my Bluesound Node in system 2… | |
| Can a DAC do triple duty? Thanks @curiousjim. Great to hear from a fellow Pontus owner…I honestly could not think or see any reason why it wouldn’t be a go, other than a possible stress factor…Appreciate everyone’s input😊 | |
| Can a DAC do triple duty? Thanks mesch, I figured it was doable, because why not if it does double why not triple with different paths one at a time, right? Just wanted to make sure it wasn't any added stress on Pontus. I will also reach out to Alvin at Vinshine as he is S... | |
| Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system The Look Of Love - Diana Krall I Can’t Tell You Why - Diana Krall I’m Coming Through - Diana Krall A Venture - Yes Spooky - David Sanborn The Evil That Men Do (from Maiden England ‘88 Live) - Iron Maiden. May sound crazy but the friggin bass... | |
| Loud pop/screech when powering on amp Thanks so much for all the thoughtful replies! @jetter I have bought from Fidelis Nice to know they can assist. To your point might be cost prohibitive. @soix Thank you for the details on the McCormack. So tempted on that. I reached out to the s... | |
| Loud pop/screech when powering on amp @hsounds if it is a blown cap, why would the amp still play and sound fine? | |
| Loud pop/screech when powering on amp I believe the amp is > 10 years. As for opening and trying to diagnose/repair myself, this is most definitely WAY over my pay grade. Again weird thing is it’s playing and sounding fine. Would it do that if it had issues??? @soix I actually ... | |
| Loud pop/screech when powering on amp Outlaw 5000 should have said😁 | |
| Loud pop/screech when powering on amp Thanks @larry5729 @mapman. I just reached out to the guy I bought it from (bought it here). He was really great so I’d like to believe he’s better than that and didn’t try to offload it…I’ll see if he responds. It’s my second system and I paid... |
