| EMM DCC2-SE or Sony 5400ES for HiRez downloads? Hi The only way to play downloads is converting your usb output to AES/EBU or SPDIF to input into the EMM. high quality one on the market is empirical's off ramp (expensive).or having a good sound card that has the above AES/EBU or SPDIF output to... | |
| Korg tascam etc. recorders any comments? SuteetatThat is the big question- who is going to come out with the software which will send pure DSD over USB? Korg's Audiogate, Foobar, Pyramax, Sonoma.....?Both Mytek and PB Design have mentioned their ability to decode the signal, but neither ... | |
| Korg tascam etc. recorders any comments? Use the Korg MR2000S for transferring vinyl to 2xDSD and find it extremely close to the original source. It would really difficult to differentiate them in a blind listening session. Even without a blind A/B test, you have to make sure that you ar... | |
| Vibration control devices for EMM CDSA. Agree with Dob.Each of these footers/tables have a different presentation. Then placement of the devices on top can differ in sound if moved around.Hence I found the Silent Running Audio shelves the most effective. No need for other tweaks after y... | |
| State of the art CD player? Only if you do this. Paperw8 and Ballywho, listen to a master tape or a Tape Project Source and compare that to the vinyl (especially a 45rpm pressing) and the commercial CD copy and that will reveal why I say that CD is limited. I don't want to change the thread subj... | |
| State of the art CD player? Only if you do this. Redbook CD is limited as a source to hold sufficient data as compared to other analog mediums such as RTR and vinyl. So stop chasing the holy grail from this medium. It's just that it was chosen to be convenient and at a time suitable for commerci... | |
| Power conditioner for EMM CDSA ? R,I also use the Aural Symphonics glass cables between the signature stack and SRA Ohio plus square shelves for each component, added to the Kimber Palladium PC's. Have not felt the need for change. Warmth, body richness, not over the top bloom an... | |
| Power conditioner for EMM CDSA ? I have heard it on the Sound Application Reference and the newer Jena Labs Power conditioner, and they both do a great job. In terms of warmth? If it's there in the recording you will hear it as the CDSA resolves most of it. What you do get is fur... | |

| Analog to Digital Hi all,I use a Korg MR-2000S which records in twice DSD. It is so difficult to distinguish between the source and the recording in this format. What I have noticed is that as you come down the formats twice DSd to Once DSd to 24/192 and then 24/96... | |
| Sub for Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage I did use a Whise 319A sub (Australian) with my Guarneri's and it mated extremely well. It is a large beast, but highly musical. I did try the Rel but preffered the Whise which could keep up with it.Also during that period the Wilson Benesch was n... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Thanks Kijanki.You are right, DSD is the format used for making discs that we call SACD. A better format than PCM redbook playback. | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? my thoughts are that digital gets let down through the transfer stages of becoming a CD/SACD,etc.It (digital) has probably a more accurate reproduction of a master tape than a vinyl master/pressing. Why? As I record my LP's in a DSD format for con... | |
| Ortofon A90 or Air Tight PC-1 Albert and Raul -great humour by the both of you'll. LOL! | |
| Converting LP to digital. Advice please... I have just started playing around using the Korg MR-2000S and I have experienced a friend who has the same machine too, against a top end TT and the Tape project. very very hard to distinguish the Korg recording playback from the original, when r... |
