Tamper Resistant Duplex Outlets
I use Oyaide R1, notice it does not have the backstabbing connections. That's what's illegal. https://afroaudio.jp/products/detail.php?product_id=14750  
Townshend Isolda Speaker Cable BI-WIRE issue
I don't think it's the cables, IDKW but single wiring with good quality jumpers has always sounded better in my systems. Doesn't make sense I know. Maybe ask Townshend if they'll take the cables back and change them for Fractals.    
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
@highstream Thanks for the reply. Only want to spend $200-300 per fuse so the most attractive to me would be SR Purple, AM Premier or Masterpiece and the Quantum Yellow or at a huge push the Lilac. It would be nice to hear back from you after the... 
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
I would highly appreciate an objective appreciation of available tuning fuses. SR - Purple is warm? Orange? Audio Magic - Masterpiece Series M1 Quantum Science Audio - Everything above yellow is expensive. Furutech TF - Discontinued but are st...

@jl1ny Yeah it's like saying my car failed because it ran out of gas..lol The Aurender Apple App stopped working because Crapple updated iOS. Woke can't see reality.  
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
@phastm3 I would wholeheartedly recommend the Aurender N20, it's the best value in the Aurender range. I've heard the N30 but it's more than double the price. IMO you'd be better off getting an N20 and a master clock unless your funds aren't limi...

@jl1ny I really take exception to the title of this thread. It is an Apple problem and another reason why I don't use Crapple. So address threads honestly and better still get an cheap Android tablet to use exclusively with your Aurender. Just r...

I believe you've already answered your own question.  
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
The ABKCO owned Rolling Stones dual layer SACDs were released around 25 years ago and then mostly their whole catalogue (the famous stuff) was released and re-released on single layer SHM SACD in Japan about 15 years ago. The Japanese releases ar... 
IFI DIABLO
@laurier I would say impossible but I haven't heard the Diablo.  
IFI DIABLO
@laurier Translation I have a DENAFRIP TERMINATOR 1. Some of my friends have replaced their very high quality dacs between US$5,000 and US$20,000 and they find the DIABLO better. What do you think?  
Transparent Reference Digital XLR vs Purist (PAD) Aqueous Aureus Digital XLR
@youngwatery I understand your predicament, most dealers don't usually have more than a couple of digital XLRs around for you to try. If you are in the US try The Cable Company, you can get cables on loan. If not I'd suggest getting a used Carda... 
DAC Merry Go 'Round- why I stopped at Weiss
There is no fool like an Audiofool which reminds me of the Mexican bandit in "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" who says "We don't need no stinkin' badges!" Well here we go screw the Grammys they mean Jack. Weiss is extremely reticent about publishi...
