| Using streaming as a main source ---DSD, FLAC, MQA Streamers and DACS I sometimes watch music videos on YouTube with one of my systems using headphones. One truly enjoyable pastime is watching the music video; while the same track (be it a recording or live performance) is playing on another system. I’m not a fan o... | |

| Interesting "Self" review...Schiit haha. Interesting. Well measurements only matter in regards to the upper limits of human hearing, bone conduction in the skull up to ultrasonic frequencies, and low enough THD/noise/jitter etc. It's about how we reached that level of THD or th... | |
| AudioQuest Pegasus vs Thunderbird Interconnects With audioquest cables I’ve heard, the sound is slightly warmer and a bit more dense. In theory, rather than in practice, a cable shouldn’t make a difference. Some argue this difference with AQ cables is due to picking up noise/acting like an ante... | |
