Velodyne DD+12 or JL F113 subwoofer?
Doesn't F113 have its own room correction?

mono versus stereo ampflication
Haha..yeah. Just noticed the dates. I found this thread with the search function. :) I guess, INT30A wasn't even out at the time of this discussion.

If you want XA.5 amplification, INT30A makes much more sense than INT150. 
Review: Focal Micro Be vs. Dynaudio C1 mk1 Monitor
Hi NVP, thanks for the comparison. One question, do you still use Accuphase E-550 to drive the C1's? Given its 30 watts class A output, I'm wondering if it is enough at moderate to loud level. I believe C1's are 4 Ohm and 86 db sensitivity.I curre... 
Metrum octave or Wyred 4 sound coax vs usb
Hi Bolero, to be honest, I haven't tried Octave without Synchro-mesh (reclocker like AP2). My impression on Synchro-mesh is with my old Electrocompaniet ECD-1 dac. If you can wait, let me give a proper burn-in on Octave (it will hit 400 hours by t...

Hi Bill, I read your Metrum thread in an Australian forum and would like to know if you have experience with the following.1) How does Empirical Synchro-mesh compare to AP-2, sound quality wise? I understand one is USB converter and the other is p... 
Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC
Hi Morganc, I have started my dac search with Metrum Octave, which is currently burning in at about 200 hours in my system. I'm very interested in your dac shootout with NAD M51 and EE+. I'm also waiting for Oppo105 to come out (it is attractive t... 
Power cord recommendation for DAC
Thank you guys for all the suggestions. I think I ought to make a list to try at least 3-4 PC. Today, I ordered a Grover Huffman demo Zx unit. :) Grover is recommended by Steve Hoffman in his forum. 
Looking for a DAC that has..
Updates:I guess I will be keeping Pass XP-10 for now. I feel it opens up a lot more options in the dac search with a pre (with analog volume control). Plus I always wanted to experiment power cords on XP-10 other than my Shunyata Venom3.Synchro-me... 
Metrum Octave First Impressions
Dbarger, thanks. Two weeks of continuous playing or just powering on? 
Power cord recommendation for DAC
JFYI Soix, I just recently bought Metrum Octave dac to replace Electrocompaniet ECD-1 (old but still in production). A pity though that I didn't have them both at the same time. Once I ordered Octave, I posted an ad here on A'gon out of boredom an... 
Power cord recommendation for DAC
Hi Soix, never thought of it that way. I always figured I just get a well-reviewed one and only return if I don't like it. Having 3-4 PC at the same time to play around sounds pretty fun. :) 
Power cord recommendation for DAC
Thank you all for the suggestions. I will make a list and do research on every single one of them.How about Grover Huffman? Has anyone have any experience with his PC? 
Metrum Octave single ended output
Hi Devilboy, thanks for the info. Do you use any aftermarket power cord? Today I switched in Shanyata Venom 3 and heard the improvement.
