| 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... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @viber6 - The Tambaqui is a very good sounding DAC and based on my time with it, more refined sounding and enjoyable to listen to than the Benchmark, which is still a bargain at it's price. However, just because they both measure well, doesn't me... | |
| Six DAC Comparison Six DAC Comparison - The Wrap Ok, time to pick a winner - just kidding, but it is time to stick a fork in this. Something I learned during this DAC comparison is that good sounding equipment can be achieved in many forms, through many different ... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @curiousjim - No, interesting thought but this will not be a regular thing. | |
| Six DAC Comparison Thoughts on Audio Equipment Reviews While researching information about each of the DACs I compared, I came to appreciate the reviewers who authored the reviews that I linked with my write-ups. No different from my comments in this thread, none ... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? I went back and read the OP’s original post from 10-2, as well as their one follow-up post from 10-3. I don’t believe the responses have addressed the OP’s actual questions. It seems the OP already owns an EVERSOLO DMP-A8 combination network stre... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @brbrock - at $3,959 the Musetec DA 006 should be a direct competitor for market share with Mojo’s Mystique Y that “starts” at $4K. In the next day or two, I will post a short “wrap” on how the six DACs ultimately compare with each other, at leas... | |

| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? And yet, one of audio's long-time reviewers (Srajan Ebaen with 6moons) uses an iMac as his source in his main system. Of course he has add-ons, such as an outboard SSD, Singxer SU-6 DDC, and LHY Audio switch, but still. He recently used that sou... | |
| Open baffle speakers My only experience was owning Alon V MkIIs, which were like the Qualio IQ - sealed box woofer under an open baffle with mid and tweeter. I never got used to the sound and sold them after a couple of years to happily return to box speakers. The ope... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? @oberoniaomnia "Could it be that the DAC in the streamer is better than what you used when using a computer as file source?" I have owned multiple streamers, from folks like Metrum, Antipodes, Sonore, Mojo Audio, and Small Green Computer, and... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? At under $1K, as previously recommended. Can be used as a stand alone streamer or as a DDC with your computer. | |
| Six DAC Comparison @stuartk "We are talking about the law of diminishing returns here, no?" I would not argue with that. IME, the relationship between cost vs. performance is more logarithmic than linear. As you move along the curve, it begins to take more mone... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? They are all computers, but some more optimized than others. If your preference is to use your MacBook, and not switch to a purpose built streamer, then inserting a DDC in front of your DAC for galvanic isolation and reclocking could provide noti... |
