| Single box CD players with NO oversampling? 6chac - Regarding 4x oversampling: Maybe the companies that claim "No oversampling" really mean "no more than 4x oversampling". | |

| Single box CD players with NO oversampling? Jc, Zikesman - If you read the Audio Note web site carefully (the section on DACs), it says clearly that no DIGITAL filtering is used. But if you look at the comparison tables, it does make mention of ANALOG filters. It just does not describe the ... | |
| Single box CD players with NO oversampling? Frank Van Alstine claims that his "OmegaStar" DAC uses 4x oversampling. Does this mean he is in the same camp as ARC, Audio Note, 47 Labs etc (no oversampling)? this is very confusing. thanks | |
| Single box CD players with NO oversampling? 6chac - thanks for your response. Audio Note claims "1x-oversampling" (and NO digital filtering). Is their claim not correct ? thanks - | |

| Quad 988 / 989 reliability ?? Thank you all for your reponses. I would like to keep this thread going. I am assuming that any Quad owner who is an "end user" (not a dealer) who sees this thread will respond as to whether they have had problems or not with their 988 / 989. It m... | |

| Quad 988 / 989 reliability ?? Hififarm - Are you STILL a Quad dealer ? If so, is recent experience improving ? i.e. are the QC issues being addressed by the manufacturer ? Where is the US service center? Are they competent and responsive (fast turnaround)? thanks | |
| Quad 988 / 989 reliability ?? Anopax - thanks for your post. I am seriosly considering a pair of Quads. I am undecided between the 988 and 989. I am smitten by the sound of Quads, but I want to alleviate all the concerns I have heard and read about: reliability, LF extension, ... | |
| Quad 988 / 989 reliability ?? Detlof - Thanks for your post. What kind of service was required after 3 yrs? How much "system downtime" did you incur while they were being repaired ? thanks. | |
| IMF speakers and KEF B139 woofers Pls1 - Thanks for your suggestion about replacing the capacitors in the x-over. Do you know where I can get information on the capacitor values and recommended brands to use ? Thanks, MABonn@aol.com | |
| IMF speakers and KEF B139 woofers Richard (Vantageaudio) - thanks for your quick reponse. I believe the speakers were overdriven (not by me, by someone who was house-sitting for me). On one of the woofers, the voice coil is out of alignment, and at high (not excessively high) volu... |
