| DAC Help What’s your budget? | |
| Micro SD Cards I’d rather transfer music on the Mac, where it’s easier to verify that the files are indeed on the card, or rearrange the order if I wish. I’m just afraid that I’ll somehow ruin another card. The Sony instructions say that the card has to be for... | |
| Recommendations for CD Player/DAC Combo The the old vinyl is better than digital refrain. Ugh. When I listen to digital the music leaps out my speakers. When I listen to an lp if sounds as if it is embedded in petroleum. | |
| In need of stabilizer/puck for a Sony SCD-777ES Ask Art Dudley. He thinks that digital developments ended with that player.Have you tried eBay, or contacting Sony? | |
| Leaving Solid State Equipment on all the Time I’m with minors. I think equipment needs to be turned off every now and then to keep from overheating. | |
| Recommendations for CD Player/DAC Combo OPspinner could mean CD transport, or refer to a full CD Player. It’s to distinguish from Computer Audio, although technically, some types of Hard Drives actually spin as well... More importantly, if you go the separate route, you will have a lo... | |
| Recommendations for CD Player/DAC Combo UberI use a Pioneer Elite CD/DVD-A/SACD Player, vintage 2004, in my surround system, paired with a Pioneer Elite receiver that uses an “I link” to pair the two. It’s a remarkably good system for “mid-Fi” gear. | |
| Recommendations for CD Player/DAC Combo @stereo5 one reason to have more expensive spinner is feature set. I used my Oppo 105 as my everything, including DAC, but eventually upgraded the DAC. The Oppo was mainly a transport then but still came into use for SACD, DVD-A, usb drives and ... | |
| Recommendations for CD Player/DAC Combo There was much more choice as recently as two years ago. The precipitous decline in CD sales is one reason that manufacturers stopped making them. The other is that Oppo really dominated that market niche, and their decision to pull out left a v... | |
| News: Qobuz Hi-Res platform's debut is scheduled for this October. See Qobuz Links below Any any updates? | |
| Aurender N100H vs N10 Considering the huge price difference I would think that it would behoove you to listen to the N10 in your own system. Even if you have to pay a restocking fee if you decide it ain’t worth it, IMO, there is no other way to be sure | |
| Art Dudley compares CD Players He uses a 17 year old CDP because he doesn’t give a crap about digital. He decided years ago that it all sounds bad.He is therefore surprised that digital can sound good. He doesn’t seem to realize that between a 17 year old player that now goes ... | |
| My experience after lost of 20k$ Kahlenzi tried the free Tidal trial a year or so ago and found it very difficult to use for Classical. Very poorly organized, worse than themes that iTunes or similar programs make organizing Classical. I don’t know if it’s been improved since t... | |
| Art Dudley compares CD Players @tomcy6 My point exactly. He’s a hypocritical idiot. And if they want to meaningfully review digital product, don’t assign it to Dudley or Fremer | |
| My experience after lost of 20k$ There maybe a valid point underneath everything here. PC Audio can be very good, but at best, it may equal, but not exceed, the best disc based replay. Frequently, it doesn’t meet the standard of disc based replay. I would put the cash in the i... |
