| Can a Bluesound Node's Streamer Be Bypassed and be used as an External Dac? You really need a better DAC for a streamer of the quality of the Aurender. Very envious I wish I could afford an Aurender N200. | |
| Can I connect multiple sources to an external DAC My Pure Audio Lotus DAC5 has 7 inputs. 2 coax, 2 optical, 1 USB, 1 11S/DSD, and 1 AES/EBU. Selection is by remote.

| Disappearing Jazz? If you are into Bill Evans try Tardo Hammer and Enrico Pierannunzi | |
| Balanced vs. Single Ended Interconnects I outlined my experience in another post. XLR hiss through speakers - RCA silence. Can anyone explain this? Pre is Aesthetix Calypso - amp EAR 534. | |
| Solid state to tube Difficult to go past ARC if it's in your budget. Otherwise Belles, Dehavilland, Cary or Aesthetix come in cheaper. I have an Aesthetix Calypso pre into an EAR 534 amp a combination which works well with my ML electrostatics. The sound is tube but ... |
