Tried DSD?
Georgie Boy,Thanks for the compliment :-)I am trying to understand your problem - is it English OR your comprehension. Read chatta's post again: I remember reading a few years ago that high bit rate PCM was superior to DSD (from an objective persp... 
Tried DSD?
You have to when something is not correct, otherwise you’ll have a bunch of Geoff Kiat’s everywhere spruiking BS all over the place And you called me out as policing :-) Your post is exactly that.Georgie Boy, what makes you think that you are t...

@jaybe,I demoed the JPLAY and like you I found the playback pretty inconvenient. I could not focus on the sound experience due to the playback issues I had while I was trying to compare it with the the Foobar2000. 
Any JPlay users out there?
After reading some positive reviews about this player, I finally downloaded it on my windows laptop after upgrading from a Asus K52 to a Asus S400. I had such high expectations, since this was a Windows only app. Installation was easy. But the thi... 
To Roon or not
They have a black Friday sale. $1 for 3 months subscription. Give it a shot. 
Issue with ProAc D40 speaker - any suggestions to resolve the issue
Is the bass overpowering the mids/highs? The bass on the D40 is potent. 
Proac Speakers
ProAc users,To experience what your speakers are capable of, try " Terje Isungset - Fading Sun" either on Spotify or Tidal. It was not on Qobuz, when I tried searching it couple of months ago. Below is the Youtube link.Full sized ProAc users - car... 
Proac Speakers
@samgar2,I envy you for the room you have. A pair of ProAc K6/K8 will nicely sing in the room. I really recommend adding bass traps in all corners. This is not just for ProAcs, but for any full sized loudspeakers.I have the D48R in a 16 X 19 room.... 
Which tubes are the best?
@akiravelvet,Obviously Brent does not like new tubes. His business is to sell NOS :-)I have not heard NOS in my system. But after hearing the difference between the new Mullards and the Psvane/Genalex Gold Lions, I am more than happy with the new ... 
Which tubes are the best?
Another vote for Psvane 12AU7 tubes. I have used Gold Lions. But the Psvanes bettered them. Both are better than the new Mullards in my system. I got mine from Viva Tubes. They have an online shop and have fast shipping.

Interesting @jaybe .Very recently I found about jPlay and wanted to experience it in my system. I know about JRiver calling jPlay as a hoax. But many reviewers and folks also swear by jPlay. Some of them find it better than Roon. I had not read an...

I have downloaded the free version. Will be trying in a few minutes. Anyone with very recent experience on this one? 
Speaker cables for Sonus Faber Olympica II
I agree with @adg101. Clear Days are amazing. I would have kept my cables, if the replacements did not burn a hole in my pocket. They are seriously good cables for the money. There is another person here who has WyWires, but still hanging on to hi... 
Which media player for lossless music
@highend64 ,Foobar2000 is AMAZING if you configure it properly. It uses far less resources. It is fast and efficient. And best of all - it is free.Below is a link for you on how to setup Foobar. There re 2 parts, this is part one and you will see ...
