Yello - Reel to Reel
Original German pressing must sound excellent. So would a 15 ips dub from the 30 ips master, that’s what I’d like to hear. I’m currently listening to a 2005 remaster on Qobuz. The tipped-up highs are giving me a headache.                
Bootleg bust
That guy who works in a record store didn’t even know who Neil Young is. So cool that Neil was making the rounds to find bootlegs. I love that crazy bastard. Awesome YouTube find.  
Footers Under Power Conditioners?
@markush I didn’t try them. Once i discovered EVP footers from AV Roomservice, I’ve added these to my components. They’re not cheap, $120 apiece. So I cheaped-out and put Herbies Tall Tenderfeet under my 2-box PC.

Linear Power Supply for a DAC
@mclinnguy  I saw the C7 from Audio Sensibility, but went with a Canare DC cable only for the lower cost. I use AS Statement PCs in my system and they are outstanding as far as improved sound, not to mention the build quality. I prefer their perf... 
Linear Power Supply for a DAC
Hi @knownothing  I'm using the Swagman SE on a reclocker in my digital chain. I have the iFi SPDIF iPurifier and it's inline with my Node 2i. This iFi device with the stock wall wart provided very little improvement removing jitter and noise. I e... 
DOL vinyl pressings
It would be good to know who's cutting and pressing these DOL releases. That guy is gaga for DOL.

Advantages with an outboard power supply
reading some articles and watching some YouTube videos and they say it will not help a digital signal. Of course it can help a digital signal. An LPS is replacing the stock power supply of the component. If it’s well matched to your device, exp... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
