Linear Power Supply for a DAC
@jackd  thanks. Have you tried their cables?  https://www.ghentaudio.com/part/dc-gac4.html  
Jean Sibelius Recordings
I’m looking forward to hearing the Vanska Sibelius. I haven’t heard Colin Davis/ Boston, but I enjoy his cycle with the LSO, 1995, RCA Red Seal. Check out Ormandy with the Philadelphia, remastered 1995, Sony. Limited symphonies. For very good SQ... 
Linear Power Supply for a DAC
Ok, now I know what I'm looking for. Any recommendations for a DC cable for linear power supply with lockable circular socket? Twisted conductors rather than the stock cable. Thanks. I only found Canare in the archives.    
Linear Power Supply for a DAC
I have a Swagman Labs SE LPS that's worked well for me. I'd like to upgrade the stock DC cable from the power supply to the 2.5mm barrel connector. First question; what is this cable called? It has a lockable circular plug. And lastly, any recom... 
Audioquest Niagara 1200
Very pleased with my Equi=Core & Deep=Core combo. Had a bad DC problem, DeepCore totally silenced it.  
Qobuz dropping rights to my favorites. A pox on their house.
Qobuz still doesn't have the ability to organise Favorite Albums. Last album saved is displayed on top. It's faster to search for an album than to scroll through Favorites. Does anybody know a workaround? Using BluOs with native app on an Android.  
Audioquest Niagara 1200
Why don't you let the Audioquest break-in and listen to some music?   
Qobuz dropping rights to my favorites. A pox on their house.
No reason to freak out. Read what @wsrrsw wrote above. That’s exactly what’s happening. Don’t panic. Relax. Put some work on it:   I search for the "missing" track and almost always find it and back in it goes. Rarely is it gone forever.  T... 
What was the first CD with great drums??
Led Zeppelin IV, "When the Levee Breaks." Thanks to the unique mic'ing and non-studio setup. Early CD releases from Germany and Japan have stellar SQ.  
What was the first CD with great drums??
Are you asking for the best drum playing or drum parts on an album? Or the best SQ of recorded drums? That would be Billy Cobham for starters.  
Single plug dedicated circuit?
As you stated, a dedicated line can be contaminated at the service panel even if it’s on a different leg than other AC devices. The problem with a subpanel is that it’s tapped off the main panel. The ultimate subpanel would have it’s own line run ... 
The best plug in filter ever!
@goofyfoot  What if you don't have XLR connections?  
Pink Floyd Quietly Drop 18 Live Albums From ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ Era
This has something to do with public domain and that if these don't get released by the artist after 50 years or something, the recordings are available for anybody to release, no matter how bad the quality, so I supposed they figure better free ... 
Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system?
@walkenfan2013  What do you listen to now; vinyl, CDs? If you don't have a DAC, the aforementioned Bluesound Node gets you streaming at an affordable price. Hook up the one component and you've got a streamer and a DAC.  
The best plug in filter ever!
I received my Puron and am experiencing outstanding improvements in SQ across the board. I started by playing orchestral music thru my Node2i, after about 15 minutes the massed strings had more detail yet kept their smooth presentation. The sounds...
