Best DACs under $7,000.00
@bassdude the T+A is not R2R, it's Delta-Sigma based @mbmi I can attest to Vlad's excellent III SE, owned it for years. His new cap less, transformer output sound very intriguing.

If you think the Pontus is 'excellent' then it seems a no brainer to stay in the family and move up to the Terminator. You might want to also consider moving up to Hermes or Gaia DDC.  I use a Hermes DDC i2S into a Sonnet Morpheus and very please... 
Anyone heard new Zu Union 6?
So after a full 5 weeks of constant usage, I can say the Zu Union 6 Supreme is happily staying put in my house. They've broken in very nicely, and from what I read, they will settle in even more over next month or so. The strident is gone, the top... 
Innuos Zen MK3 won’t transcode DSD to FLAC
Thanks fellas.  1. Changing to 96khz doesn’t work 2. I had originally selected “No DSD support” since my DAC doesn’t support DSD i got a reply back from Innuos tonight.  “the file is not regular PCM but rather floating-point encoded instead. This...

Thanks @label19 I don't have a Facebook account (on purpose), but do submit tickets to Innuos... they've been pretty slow to respond. I have 5 messages going back and forth on this with an agent, sent them a file to test and they could replicate, ... 
Silver Speaker Cables
@cakyol and I’m just inviting you to not the be a zealot and pretend to know what other people experience.    and @jasonbourne52 mentioned DH labs cables but I guarantee he didn’t use their 100% silver cable. 90% of the companies cables (silver s...

Anyone heard new Zu Union 6?
Hey @whoopycat good to hear from you. Did you do the base model or a superfly/supreme upgrade? haven’t tried corner loading yet but may give it a go soon. But I do have them toed in pointing directly at me.    how far from the walls do you have t... 
Anyone heard new Zu Union 6?
sorry it’s taking so long. I made the mistake of changing out too many components at once. New DAC, new streamer, new DDC, new power cords (Audio Art Statement with rhodium plugs). So even though I’ve got over 200 hours on the Zu’s now the other c... 
USB cable quality connected to a DDC?
Yeah logically I know, but curious if anyone has experience with this they could share.   
PSA: Be Careful Dealing With Uptone Audio
Customers like this are the reason why more and more companies do not offer transferable warranties.  Uptone has been around for a very long time and sold thousands of products but if you read the OPs thoughts all of his products are faulty. He w...
