Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD The Romulus Sig, Allnic and Berkeley DACs are all on my list to eventually try. The usb/SPDIF conversion being the biggest hurtle to overcome.

Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD It's sort of meandering about. I sorta like it. Tubes for a bit, then music servers, now a bit on AC wiring. All good. And I'm learning a lot with each wandering. I'm still cooking my Esoteric K01 so nothing to report until it's done. I'm happy to... | |

Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I ran all 10 gauge solid copper wire. Heavy as hell. My system is fully to code, but I do it myself. It takes me longer then a professional would, but I save a fortune on billable electrician hours and I know its done to my particular standards. I... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Thanks guys. My lines are run and I don't want to pull any more 10 gauge romex. I have 4 dedicated 10 gauge lines - each running to it's own outlet.

Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Trying to understand....Isn't a dedicated Earth ground simply using a shielded grounding wire from the outlet to the panel? So it doesn't directly share it's ground with anything else until it's in the panel? If yes, how does that differ from the ... | |

Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I'm Sorry. Can you explain the benefit of Ethernet over USB?I'm having a hard time processing what the advantages are. Doesn't this all come down to Jitter and clocking? Wouldn't the ideal server be connected to a DAC that shares a single external... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD AUdiolabyrinth - I read that article. His impressions agree with both of ours. And with Steve's. The BEST DAC is one with a built in USB to i2S converter that is top tier. As he stated, even MANY ultra exotic DAC's have crappy, inexpensive USB con... |
