| EXPLAIN HD SACDs to me. ???? There is no such thing as "HD SACDs." Wikipedia has an overview of SACD.http://www.sa-cd.net has a list of available ones and a forum.What other are you asking about? What player do you have?Kal | |
| New speakers designed by Andrew Jones Yes, do let us know. The demo at CEDIA had the BS-41s on stands that, likely, cost more than they do and in an acoustically-designed room that Pioneer uses for all their show demos. Especially for such inexpensive speakers, that may not be a reali... | |
| Should Equalizers make a comeback? I do not see how the iTunes EQ can possibly "tune the room." It cannot do what proper acoustical treatments can do not can it do what a DSP-based room EQ can do.That said it can be useful for implementing personal preferences and patching the bala... | |
| Why larger gauge speaker wire for low frequencies? The general power/impedance analyses, to which you refer, correctly indicate that most of what you describe is simply overkill. | |

| Comparable product to Logitech Transporter? The Touch will use any music stored in your iTunes directory and will do more, including FLAC. It ain't bad through the analog output but really shines with an external DAC as it will output up to 24/96 as well as dts(!).Kal | |
| Squeezebox Touch or Sonos ZonePlayer The Sonos units benefit from a good external DAC, too.Kal | |
| SACD vs. Vinyl Why are you buying the same music over and over?Kal | |
| Squeezebox Touch or Sonos ZonePlayer Johsti said: ....plays 24/96 files without downsampling.Djohnson said: ...the Touch does NOT downsample anything 24/96 or lower."I think they agree. Touch will play 24/96 or lower rates unchanged. It will downsample 24/176.4 and 24/192 to 24/96.Kal | |
| Anyone tried ripping SACD as 24bit PCM? Yes, it has been done. See http://www.computeraudiophile.com/forum for many who have.Kal | |
| Stereophile Rated the Sqeezebox Touch Class D First, Atkinson did not pressure or even ask me to remove any postings. I did so because they were made in haste and in error.Second, if you Google a bit, you will find I have made many posts (> 20,000 on AVS alone) and a substantial number hav... | |

| Proceed Pre balanced input and rca output? Can of worms. IMHO, no under ordinary conditions. Others will take issue with it.Kal | |
| Two pairs of spkrs in tandem "Although I am thinking of just running them on both A and B speaker outputs. " Why? It is the same amp anyway.Kal |
