No, per Michael Borresen Over many decades, I have listened and owned many, many speakers, trying to replicate the kind of live sound I was hearing in the mixing room of a friend's recording studio.

| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Beware of Audio GD. I had two of them. The last one would not play DSD as announced. After 40 messages with the omner, he said he would refund me. So I sent the DAC to China. But the Chinese customs held it up and wanted to charge import duties. ... | |

| Sharing my experience with cables Thank you all so much for your responses. Food for thought for sure. I can add that I do have dedicated lines with PS Audio and Audioquest wall outlets. In my quest for the new main system, I have listened carefully to over 500,000 $ of high end... | |
| Sharing my experience with cables No I mean just the power cords for streamers and Dacs. Didn't hear any meanigful differences. They are all connected through power treament ( PS audio and ifi), which does make a difference ( cleaner, less distortion) The interconnects make a ... | |
