| LA Woman CDs: DCC vs. Analogue Productions Have you tried the original CD? I think it sounds very good. | |
| Sound Lab vs Magnepan 20.7 Brian,Can we have some details on the special event you refer to? | |
| Pure Music vs. Audirvana Plus No comparison. However, I use a Aurdirvana Plus on a MacBook Air and could not be happier with the results. See my previous post on this subject | |
| Frank Sinatra mfsl sacd I have the MFSL CD of "Songs For Swinging Lovers"; the sound quality and performance/music are simply stunning IMHO. One of mine, and my wives, favorite Friday night, let's relax, CDs. I can only imagine how good the SACD version must sound. | |

| Best High End Audio Manufacturer??? I have been very happy with the 4 Krell units I have owned (HTS 5.1, KSA-250, HTS 7.1 and TAS). Would love to own some MBL gear one day, short of winning the lottery, probably never going to happen. | |

| DAC: high quality USB + preamp $5000 I have a friend who uses a McIntosh C50 to play computer audio files via USB. His system sounds excellent to me | |
| DAC's - Oppo 105D vs Krell Connect I use an Oppo 105 with a Krell HTS 7.1. For me the best connection is to use the Oppo for D/A conversion ( Oppo BDP, Apple TV and MacBook Air HD FLAC files via USB into the Oppo) and analog out (XLR for stereo or RCA for 5.1) to the Krell HTS 7.1. | |
| 2C HiFi Epiphany - Worlds Best System? I would have said the same thing until I heard this system. I have been an Audiophile for the past +45 years (showing my age here). I have also attended numerous high end demonstrations/shows over the years in various countries. Absolutely nothing... | |
| Fully Digital Playback? I use an Oppo 105 as a CDP/DVD/BR player and DAC. I feed a MacBook Air, running Audirvana Plus, via USB into the Oppo to play HD digital files. The sound to my ears is spectacular. I could not be happier. See my previous post on this subject. Usin... | |
| High End HiFi Stores To Visit in Amsterdam Thanks for the tips guys. Chattelin, in The Hague, is simply amazing. They are a Devialet and Magico retailer. Read seriously high end. Great demonstration studio and a very friendly/knowledgable owner. Hope to go to some of his demonstration show... |
