| Source XLR to Balanced Preamp will increase gain? Ralph,Thank You very much for the detailed explanation. Made it so much easier to understand the "real balanced" concept. | |

| Speaker cables for NAD C356 and PSB Image B6 I had the older NAD C352 integrated and used the Signal Cable Silver Resolutions. I think it is a very good match, the Resolutions being transparent and neutral. If that is a bit higher than your budget, then you can opt for the Ultra Speaker Cabl... | |

| Rethm Maarga Impressions. Nd4speed,You have a very nice room and I liked your system pics. Hopefully you will re-post your system once the new speakers are up and running. | |
| Source XLR to Balanced Preamp will increase gain? Ralph,I am not so tech savvy. Thank You for the heavy dose. I want to learn more. Can you please explain "differential" and "floating"? I understand that pin 2 is +ve while pin 3 is -ve. Based on your explanation I am tempted to try a RCA to XLR a... | |
| Source XLR to Balanced Preamp will increase gain? Al,As always, useful feedback.I was actually referring to my TVC, which is passive. Yes, active preamps do increase the gain. But since TVCs are just attenuating the voltage, I assumed that the CDP's 4V at XLR, is 4V at each +ve and -ve leg. Hence... | |
| Source XLR to Balanced Preamp will increase gain? Thank You for your perspective on the XLR connections.The thing that seems tricky is that some CDPs mention the same output level 2.2V (for example) in both RCA and XLR connections while some other CDPs mention exactly twice the output level in XL... | |
| AURALiC Vega I recently read a couple review on the Vega and was left pretty impressed. Would like to hear from fellow-goners if they have tried or have it in their system. | |
| When did you start to love music and why? No one at home was "into" audio, except for the radio (2-in-1) that used to play for couple of hours each day. Started as a fascination for mini-audio systems from Kenwood, Pioneer, Sony, Technics etc when I was in school (7th grade maybe). This w... | |
| Marantz sa-11s3 I was wondering if anyone out here has compared this Marantz to the Oppo BDP-105 for the SQ. These 2 players are on my shortlist. But I wonder if the Marantz is worth the extra $$$ over the Oppo, while not having the latest DAC, cannot do DSD or o... | |
| Deliciously musical...Mytek DSD 192 DAC Reviving this thread again.Assuming that NAD adds DSD capability to the M51, will it be possible stream SACDs DSD "out" through HDMI from an Oppo BDP 105 to HDMI "in" on the NAD? What chip is NAD using currently in the M51? Will the "out" from Opp... | |
| Disappointed to hear that Cary has no CD Players. What is it with "audio only" players that either do SACD or DSD, but not both? The Cary DMC600 is the most ideal "audio only" player, except that it does not have SACD capability. | |
| Listening chair suggestions Go for the Jappling chair from IKEA, with the matching footrest. I replaced my Poang with this one and I love it. But I do understand that it is not available at every IKEA store. But you also have other IKEA chairs that are very close to the Japp... | |
| Two-channel is inferior to multi-channel, no? I wish professional audio-reviewers would have supported SA-CDs when they first came around, as they do now to Multi-channel and DACs. We would have gotten a lot more multi-channel contents (with very good mastering) and would have found more audi... |
