| Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing If your DAC has an I2S input, that could easily narrow your search down as a majority of available transports don't output I2s. Last I heard, the new Shanling ET3 has been on backorder for months. | |
| What was your first record? My first 45 was either "Dizzy" by Tommy Roe or one of The Beatles early singles. My first few albums were all greatest hits (due to limited budget/allowance) by the likes of: The Byrds, Bob Dylan, Donovan, Doors and the Guess Who. My first "prop... | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 I did not see the 8/22 post about the Direct Stream "Junior" model; so, my bad. | |
| Modding the PS Audio Directstream DAC MK1 and MK2 I tried sending messages to both the RichardsElectronics and JK Richards accounts on 7/25, 8/17 & 8/21 and I never heard back from either one. Don't know what else to do. | |
| Building a 100 album vinyl collection 3 must have albums are? "I find myself agreeing with you today" is a good example of why the music related threads tend to be more enjoyable (and civil) then the equipment related threads. +1 for Jeff Buckley - "Grace;" I can't believe I forgot that one.

| Building a 100 album vinyl collection 3 must have albums are? Love - Forever Changes David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust Steely Dan - Gaucho (any of their first 7 albums would be a great choice) | |

| I Hate Moving Take a few photos of how and/or where all of the cables are connected. Don't assume that you'll remember where everything goes. Good luck with the move, along with not annoying your new neighbor! | |
| Selling gear made to be a set If you list them as a set, you'll probably limit your potential pool of buyers; so, I'd list them separately. However, I'd put a note in each ad that you will offer a discount to anyone who buys both items. | |
| Give 'Ambrosia' another listen I thought I had all of their cd's; but, I discovered a live album that I didn't know about due to this thread, so thanks for that! "Standing Room Only" was recorded in 2002 and there are still three original band members (guitarist/vocalist David... | |
