best way to connect pc to dac
@mswobo,I am with @kalali. There are much better inexpensive options to stream music nowadays instead of relying on your laptop. Unless you’re willing to treat that USB signal with a external reclocker and isolate the noise, you’re better off star... 
It's Simple
+1, @dave_b. IME, no component is perfect. Just like music, you put together a system based on personal preferences. You just need to make sure there is enough ‘synergy’ among the components to enjoy music cause that’s all it matters at the end of... 
Best DIY power cable. Why not make?
I had great success with DIY - Furutech Power Cords and Connectors. I have build some PC’s for my amps using FP-S032N (12AWG) with FI-28 (R) Connectors for $350.00. They are excellent performers for the money.  If you are going to build cables, I ... 
Newbie with some turntable, cable, pre-amp, and speaker questions.
@willemj,It’s the best of both worlds 😉 
Newbie with some turntable, cable, pre-amp, and speaker questions.
@willemj,I see very little or no point debating with folks who choose to live in their own bubble. I rest my case, take it easy!

willemj says, “I am not convinced that significantly higher resolutions produce any sonic improvement“I guess that’s pretty much sums the very reason why you so aggressively advocate Chromecast on almost every thread. May be someday you will step ... 
Upgrade over Sonos ZP90?
@gkr7007, Thank you for posting your experience with Wyrd4sound mod. I have been on fence to do this upgrade for a while. The stock Connect box through my Oppo 205 DAC using a S/PDIF cable sound pretty good. What DAC you’re using with your Connect...

DAC Suggestions Please
willemj, Thank goodness you didn’t suggest to sell the Oppo 105, buy Google Chromecast and keep the change 😉 
DAC Suggestions Please
@taylorro,It would be helpful to know your budget and what is your source (streamer or CD player) before anyone can make DAC recommendations. The market is flooded with DAC’s starting at $250 to $20K.I own Oppo 205 and it’s SQ through the DAC is p... 
I have a few things i dont need, how do i get them gone?
+1, douglas_schroeder,I gave away bunch of old gear (less than 10 years old) to a local school and goodwill. This included 2 Denon DVD players, 1 Pioneer DVD player, 1 Pioneer Laserdisc player, 1 Samsung Blu-Ray player, Two Marantz Blu-Ray players... 
6H30p-DR vs 6H30p Tubes
@trelja,Like you said, sometimes the best way to move past things is to try and get it out of your system. @wharfy, In my system, the combination of SR Black’s in my Pre and DAC, HiFi Supreme Silver in my tube amp and HiFi Supreme Cu in my source ... 
Ethernet Cable
@joecasey,I agree, Supra is a fabulous sounding cable and an excellent value. The Oyaide IS-707 RJ Cable was good but once you hear Supra, there is no way you can go back to IS-707.   
6H30p-DR vs 6H30p Tubes
@wharfy,Thank you for your feedback. ARC does a great job in selecting tubes for their gear. And I do agree with you on SR Black’s and Herbie’s dampers upgrade, all of my components already have SR black’s and HiFi Supreme Fuses.  
OK, so seriously, what is up with TMR's pricing here??
Well, they certainly got your attention 😉And now you’re going to draw even more attention...mission accomplished!
