| Who has found happiness giving up cd player? Who has found happiness giving up cd player?I like Bob_bundus's reply, but it means I have to get up every 15 minutes. I've been extremely happy with a Mac Mini connected to a DAC using toslink. My laptop serves as a remote via screen sharing. Al... | |
| Wyred DACS There's plenty of discussion about features. Can *anyone* offer comments on the sound? Have any reviews been done yet? Many thanks in advance. | |
| Best step up device for low output Grados? I've often wondered what Grado recommends for their LOMM carts. There aren't many phono stages that produce enough gain to use these cartridges without a SUT or headamp. 0.5 mV needs 56 dB gain before entering a linestage. You might want to contac... | |

| Power cord for MHDT Havana Mingles,Can you give more details about your upgrades. Also let me know the configuration of your system.At the time, I had a Yamaha receiver and Dahlquist speakers. Switching to separate amp and preamp improved resolution, but the most significan... | |
| Power cord for MHDT Havana There should be a significant difference between the Technics and the Havana. It's possible your system isn't resolving enough or your ears aren't trained to hear the difference. I really doubt a power cord will change much. I was in a similar sit... | |
| Source recommendation I'm hooked on Bel Canto. The DAC 3 is spectacular sounding! If I were in your shoes, I'd sell the Pre2 and replace it with a DAC 2.5 or 3.5 depending on what you can afford. Along with dac functionality both of these units have analog input and re... | |
