| In my comparison experiment, go Lore or Lore Reference, or something else, for the same $ My price range peaks at $1400, all in. @pinwa I did watch the video, but he reflects on an earlier version of the Omen DW (you noted 2012; it's nearly nine years from that point, now), and I've also paid to have the Jupiter caps installed, which i... | |
| REVEL performa3 f208 or TEKTON Moab @stringreen YES! I appreciate authentic insight of that kind. And I have to admit, my stereo predilections and obsessions signify something of the confusion you descry. | |
| REVEL performa3 f208 or TEKTON Moab I haven't been on Audiogon for a bit, and I've had my Moabs for about ten months, and I have been thinking about what I might say about them, for months. I come from a background of "living in" the local upscale stereo shops for months at a time. ... | |
| Anyone with tinnitus or hearing loss who is into "high-end" audio? My best advice for working with tinnitus is watch your mental response to it and just let it be, get on with your life. Certainly, take precautions in loud environments, but don't let the new sound effect(s) push you around. Learn to let go of the... | |
| why a 75 dollar blue ray smokes all 2k CD players and any turntable??? Work from and learn from your own ears. If you are serious about the music, this is the only authentic approach, much of the rest is just a possibility. Also, learn to relax your mind and truly focus, when listening, which no one seems to want to ... | |

| What makes a DAC so expensive? I think this is an issue of definition, with @mozartfan seeming to differentiate between a straight DAC and a DAC that includes a tube stage? | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? @mozartfan I have a tube amp and it is a wonderful performer. I also have a class A amp and it is also blissful. My latest DAC - the Schiit Modius - is not a tube product, but it is transparent and the overall sound quality of my system is beyond... | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? @ovinewar I appreciate your comment, concerning the division between the search for "truth" and time protected for enjoyment. More and more I see the limits of endless searching, which seems to be pronounced in a commercial culture, where our desi... | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? @jjss49 How do you listen? What are you habits of listening, and are they significant to the value of your music listening experiences? | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? @mahgister and @duglas and others, I appreciate the thrust of your comments, and there is one significant piece that is left out of much of this discussion, which may be the largest determiner of the music experience:The quality of the listening. ... | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? @ovinewar and @cal3713 What (we) faced in here was a discussion thread I had begun that soon turned into an assault on one person's character, not so much their point-of-view, a point-of-view that wasn't asserted with any sort of bellicose tone. M... | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? @mahgister What I'm understanding is that you propose a very involved process of "embeddings." You haven't gone into it and I'm a little timid about asking, as I don't want to be swamped... But I will bite, lightly:Can you give me a pointer or two... | |
| What makes a DAC so expensive? We each approach this, including the way we treat others in this forum, in our own way, as we do most other things. We can use the language, "The only thing getting between advancing the training of one's dog is the owner of the dog." Yes, that's ... |
