| My New Large Advents "A lot of people had a lot of fun with those speakers!"That is for sure.Then there was the Bose 301 crowd as well. THey also had a lot of fun. I was always more an Advent sound person though....also loved the old Advent 300 receiver. Nice pre-amp ... | |

| That "tube sound" and power ratings " I'm not sure the purest or cleanest sound does it for everyone"Nop doubt about that. Top notch technical performance and what people like best are not always the same thing.The difference is the first is objective and performance claims can be s... | |
| Computer Audio "Maybe has to do with the offset or floating point rounding. Maybe has to do with erroneous behavior when the CODEC is running real-time."Maybe if resmpling is done in teh process, but not for a straight format conversion. If it happens in that ca... | |
