| un-becoming an audiophile I’m certainly drawn into the audiophile word more from the equipment side than the music side. I’m not particularly musical which may be why my repertoire of music is relatively small and I don’t actively seek out new music very often. I tend to s... | |
| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update @erik_squires - It would be interesting to know for sure. I can tell you that it’s a pretty significant improvement. I was initially impressed, but the more I’ve listened today the more impressed I’ve become. | |
| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update @j_andrews - I sent the photo yesterday afternoon and received a reply today mid morning. Pretty quick. | |
| Why Are We Breaking Our Brains? @thyname - "Tricking" would be a fair assessment. I think he would see the humor in it or I wouldn't do it. | |
| Why Are We Breaking Our Brains? @jond - "Conspiracy Theory" is probably too strong of a word. I was just referring to the classic debate on how much the price of a given wine impacts the experience. Can most people really tell the difference between different wines that cost ... | |
| Bluesound Node 2I Power Supply Update @jetter - I had overlooked that. Thanks. | |
| Bluesound Node 2I Power Supply Update @upshift - It seems like both the PD Creative and LHY are solid options. I'll probably wait unit I sell my old DAC before making a purchase. | |
| Power cord - 5 ft vs 10 ft ? @jasonbourne52 - Have you ever sat side by side with an audiophile that claimed to hear differences in power cords? I'd be curious to have you paired up with someone for some blind testing that started at the macro end of the audiophile scale whe... | |
| Why Are We Breaking Our Brains? @ghdprentice - I don't drink, but am fascinated with the concept that there are wines that people think smell like cat urine and still drink it. If I needed to give a gift to a wine drinker... | |
| Why Are We Breaking Our Brains? As others have mentioned, the wine industry isn't without it's conspiracy theories. I'm fairly certain that professional "tasters" and "smellers" can be tested to on some level (i.e. at what concentration can they identify a known taste or smell)... | |
| Power cord - 5 ft vs 10 ft ? @thyname - I was going to say that proper cables must be measured in meters and not feet :-) @audphile1 - You bring up a very important point for consideration. Assuming that all other things being equal a longer power cord is better, then at w... | |
| USB DAC for Pro Audio PC Application In case anyone ever reads this in the future, the new DAC seemed to make a nice improvement for last weeks service. I was grateful that we had it hooked up as we had the uncommon opportunity to play songs from seven different CDs. I'm sure some ... | |
| Whole reference system was stolen, need budget friendly integrated. Help Please! My question for the OP is if the current request for advice is intended for a temporary solution until thing’s hopefully get sorted with the insurance company or if you’re now on a different path entirely. I have no experience with your gear (or... | |
| Morrow Audio 1m MA4 Balanced Interconnect I finally took my Morrow Audio MA4 balanced interconnects on a field trip to my friends house. He has Martin Logan speakers with a Krell stereo power amplifier fed by a Topping DAC. It was a very quick listening session, but we started with a fe... | |
| USB DAC for Pro Audio PC Application I was able to do an initial setup of the ART USB DI USB to Transformer Balanced XLR Analog Converter today and it seems like a clear improvement for the system. We didn’t have the right cables, so couldn’t leave it setup, but will get it sorted ne... |
