Using a PS Audio Perfectwave Dac as a music server
thanks guys. knew j river was something i wanted. just forgot why lol. been reading so much about this stuff the last few months, some of it went in and out.just checked my itunes and they appear to be m4a files. understand that is not a good thin... 
Using a PS Audio Perfectwave Dac as a music server
great thread and very timely for me as well. my bridge should be here in a few days. finally decided to make the leap into pc tunes (kind of a crawl in my case). am keeping my pwt until i feel comfy/confident with the pc set-up's sound.. think i h... 
Wadia 170i Ipod Dock Vs Onkyo ND S1 Ipod Dock
have been using lossless Mark.no doubt it's a Apple licensing agreement that's holding the NDS1 out of certain markets. more coin for Apple with two companies paying for exclusive rights. doubt they're long term deals so like everything else in di... 
Wadia 170i Ipod Dock Vs Onkyo ND S1 Ipod Dock
just had an opportunity to demo a friends 3 week old NDS1. have had an 170i for some time now and really enjoy it. chose a digital cable after trying a few and even upgraded the oem pc ( to audioquest ngr's). think i have my 170i performing as goo...

you're gonna love the Blinn rack. have had mine for over a year and could not be happier. outstanding build quality to say the least. beautiful rack that's tough to beat imho. Steve is a great guy. 
PS Audio AC-5 question
agree with Jdub. i've got an ac-10 feeding my quintet from a dedicated 20A line. have another ac-10 going to my amp. use 2 ac-5's for my pwd and pwt and an ac-3 for my sub.separating audio/video is a good idea imho. have all my HT gear running fro... 
has anyone tried ps audio power cords on subs
yes. i tried the ac-3, ac-5 and ac-10 on my velodyne dd12. could not tell any difference so i went with the ac-3. could tell a difference upgrading from OEM but after that.....nothing.i will note that my sub is used at a very low level. volume is ... 
ps audio hdmi cables
Buconero: being "equal" spec wise may be true. sounding the same is another story. have tried 4 different HDMI lines and all 4 sounded "different" in my system. can't say one was "better" then the rest but can tell you which one i liked best in my... 
Upgrading to AZ Silver Reference II
i've tried the silver ref 2's and matrix in my system. when compared to the matrix, the ref 2's were more detailed but i found them to be a tad to forward/bright.as always....this will depend on your set-up and preferences. love my satori shotguns... 
PS Audio AC-5 question
Lake11: if you like them now, you're gonna love-um after a few hundred hours of use. i use a couple of ac10's and noticed a difference from the beginning as well. however, i noticed much more improvement over time. you're gonna be one happy camper... 
PS Audio AC-5 question
i agree. currently have ac10's and ac5's in my system and all required a long break in. mine didn't get sorted out until 200+ hours and sounded even better after 400 hours. give them a chance to loosen up and they'll do a wonderful job. 
PS Audio Perfect wave Transport and DAC
seems most owners prefer the hdmi hookup (including myself). i ended up trying and sticking with PS Audio's own I2S-12's. these are solid silver as apposed to the silver plated I2S-10's.. felt they greatly improved detail and soundstage (width and... 
Velodyne DD12 or DD15
you told me "faster and tighter bass means less bass". that is not what i heard or described.......but you told me that's what it was/is (and i completely disagree).maybe you left out an "imo" or "seems to me"?? if so......no problem... please do ... 
Velodyne DD12 or DD15
Rwwear: DD15 sounded slower and looser. since when is tighter bass a bad thing??(for music). many folks prefer tight/fast bass when it comes to music/2 channel listening. tighter bass does not nessacarily mean less. depending on what you're listen...
