Recommendation Temporary DAC
Would you please clarify your source component for the DAC? Does it have USB, Coax outputs? What type of digital connector you’re using with DAC8? “Key limitation: Needs XLR input”I think you meant to say DAC should have XLR outputs not input for ... 
Eva Cassidy Documentary, Kay Commercial and New Album
I own every record of Eva, if you haven’t already own listen to NightBird ~ 7LP’s collection of her haunting performance at the Blues Alley jazz club.  
Does Age Matter?
I honestly don’t care about the format. Over the years I have learned to appreciate good music and how it sounds regardless of the recorded medium. I equally enjoy spinning Vinyl, CD’s and Streaming tunes. There is no clear winner in my system and... 
Audio envy - dang!
@pokey77,That’s great to hear, happy for you man!  
Does Anyone Think CD is Better Than Vinyl/Analog?
@camb,Thanks for sharing the article. But I am afraid it won’t make any difference to vinyl aficionado’s. They are just living in ‘denial’. I enjoy extracting the ‘best’ each format (CD, Vinyl and Streaming) has to offer rather than getting into e... 
Phonostage recommendations under $3K
Nope, the US dealer who also happens to be the distributor of Vida apparently not interested in dishing out a demo piece. My email / phone call to Alfred did not get a reply. Oh well, may be I get lucky with a used piece.

Amazon Music HD..... Not For Audiophiles
Amazon HD: I wasn’t too impressed with catalog and more importantly the availability of my favorite artist in high resolution. For my personal taste in music along with Aurender’s superb Conductor app, Qobuz offers the best streaming experience.  
Point of higher priced streamer?
“I have decided to buy a Chromecast Audio (CA), which although discontinued, it can be still be found in e-bay for a whopping $50. According to numerous sites if connected via optical to a "decent" high performing DAC (e.g. Topping D50), it will o... 
Phono Cable Recommendations
@samzx12,When they say cable is ‘fast’ it means you will hear well defined transients along with a sense of "immediacy" to the sound. AE cables are very transparent, no coloration whatsoever.  
Room Treatment, Panel Sound Diffusers
“Looking for advice on the type of wall treatment that works but won’t break the bank.”Call GIK Acoustics, their acoustic panels are quite inexpensive once you consider the free professional advise and finish. If you want panels that looks like th...

Phono Cable Recommendations
@samzx12,Good call, AE phono cable is super quiet, fast and offers superior shielding. I am currently using AE’s analog cables (IC, Speaker and Power Cables) in my system. Please post your feedback once you had a chance to listen (allow atleast 25...
