JAY'S Audio CDT-3-MK2 or PS Audio DirectStream Memory Player
Thank you for all the feedback. It looks like I will be getting the Jay's Audio per all the comments. It does not have a toslink, but I don't need that. I would be using the coax output.

Add me to the Gaia success story club.I put Gaia 1 on my speakers and never took them out. They work really well. My speakers are not electrostatic, so not sure if my feedback would help you. I can also confirm that what is written above matches w...

Vinyl - Hearing The Beginning of the Song One Revolution Earler
Thank you for all the responses. I have been making some changes to my system that made it much more resolving with a much quieter background. This is when this "echo" effect became really noticeable. I hear this on some of my best sounding record...

On/Off Switch
toddverrone684 posts11-01-2017 1:56pmIt has actually been discussed on quite a few threads here and the best idea put forward and used by at least one amp manufacturer was to use a circuit breaker in place of the on/off switch and the fuse.Interes...
