| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? +1, @jjss49 Exactly! I’ve asked OP to reveal his system and budget for DAC. No answer yet! I am willing to bet majority of recommendations here are not even pertinent or far off from his consideration :-) | |
| Best sub for music, “Best sub is no sub, There's nothing below 160hz, hardly a few cello notes and kettle drums, You guys are fooling youself.”OP, You’re only fooling yourself by believing in “Best sub is no sub”. Carry on! | |
| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? “I have an Esoteric K-01xd with the best FPGA programmable DAC (64 bit) that I have heard...beats both the best DCS and MSB Tech DACs in my system.”@gerryah930,Can you please elaborate on ‘best DCS and MSB’ since they have different tiers of refer... | |
| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? “I guess I’m looking for night and day differences, not gradual progressions……”OP, it would be helpful to know your current system and budget for DAC.

| New speakers dilemma for vinyls... Heeelp! :))) I did not know there are speakers designed specifically for or 80% vinyl playback 😂 | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... I agree with @grannyring. The USB III is one of the finest cable I’ve had the pleasure of auditioning in my system. They do come with no question asked return policy should anyone wants to try them out. As far multiple listings, people switch out ... | |
| How many of you are digital only systems? "As hard as it might be for some to accept, I don’t think analog is for everyone".No it isn’t but the same can be said for hard core vinyl aficionados. I believe neither analog nor digital are plug n play, they both require fair amount of attentio... | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? @hilde45,You’ve gotten great advise so far. To summarize / reiterate, 1) If possible don’t limit yourself to one dedicated line, it limits your flexibility for gear placement. I have two dedicated lines installed on both sides of my room (30’W x 1... | |
