| Six DAC Comparison @rfagon - I agree with your assessment of Michael Lavorgna’s reviews of those three highly regarded DACs. I was also interested in reading his perspectives as a single reviewer listening to all three DACs in a single system. His preferences lean t... | |
| Non-Audiophile Audiophile question! I certainly do not have first hand experience but as with a couple of your early answers, my first thought was Ohm. Another speaker line you may wish to consider is Shahinian Acoustics, Ltd. Looking over the line, it seems the Obelisk may be thei... | |
| Six DAC Comparison Michael Lavorgna just came out with his additional review of the Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC - Part 2 Tube Rolling. Fairly short and succent (generally a good thing), he tried five different tubes, in addition to the original tubes supplied by th... | |
| Thanks to the Moderators Captivating resurgence of a two month dormant thread - thanks for the revelation! Carry on... | |
| Streamer for LTA Aero Here is a follow-up take on this, you can get by with less computing power since your LTA Aero has no DSD or MQA support. We all started somewhere, which mostly is not the same place we end up. If you want to get your feet wet with a solution t... | |
| Streamer for LTA Aero "a highly capable, yet sensible streamer" and "My interest ...is due mostly to their ripping feature ...I have a couple thousand CDs." It sounds as if you are interested in a server/streamer with an easy CD ripping feature and also on-board sto... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @no_regrets - Yes, I wrote: "I recall a slightly dryer presentation from the non-NCZ version, that I do not perceive with the X SE NCZ or with the EVO Pro." That comment is part summation and part paraphrasing from notes I took and emails I tr... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @curiousjim - Sonore have been doing this for awhile now, an optical cable directly feeds the streamer, which is called their Signature Rendu SE Deluxe (optical). SGC is a good place to buy one or, directly from Sonore. I started using optical cab... | |
| Six DAC Comparison BTW all, I am still curious to hear a Holo Audio May KTE, and also a totaldac unity and would add write-ups on those DACs if I had the chance. If any Holo May KTE or totaldac owners out there are interested hearing a Mojo Audio DAC and would be w... | |
| Six DAC Comparison Thank you @curiousjim! I am listening to a new/upgraded Sonore Signature Rendu SE Deluxe Optical today - long name but great product and great people to work with for customer satisfaction. | |
| Six DAC Comparison @trentgordon - Thanks for the update. It sounds like either choice is a win. Interesting that you were able to change the sound of the Aero with different tubes. I believe Michael Lavorgna at Twittering Machines was planning to post a Part 2 to ... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? @soix And BTW, an SU6 or Holo Red is far from SOTA as DDCs go. The benefits I appreciate from a DDC are galvanic isolation, multiple output choices to my DACs, and lower jitter. I have owned the Hermes and now the SU-6, and I am curious wha... | |

| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? It is important to have clarity when posters discuss a "streamer" or a "server" in these threads. I believe there is sometimes confusion over a poster’s intent without clarifying whether they are talking about a server, a streamer, or a combined s... |
