Alvin Lee- 1 year later
Swampwalker,I thought that was me with the pony tail and tie-dyed shirt! But I truly cannot remember. I do remember the mud after the rain on Sunday. Priceless and unexpected experience.neal 
PS Audio PWD MkII vs W4S DAC2
Thank you.Neal 
PS Audio DAC II or Bryston: two great machines
Have not heard the Bryston DAC ( have the BDP-1, which is a terrific product with fantastic support) but have the PWD MkII (now superseded by a new PS Audio DSD - capable DAC). It is an excellent product. I have had a number of CDP's and DAC's ove... 
Your jaw dropping cables
LessLoss DFPC Reference PC. Not many out there yet, soon to be reviewed by 6Moons. get ahead of the curve. These are astonishing at 3x the price; for $1800, they are essentially a steal. I have no commercial connection with LessLoss. Just a pleasa... 
Alvin Lee- 1 year later
I was at the original Woodstock from beginning to end (even bought tickets). I saw all the acts. Ten Years After was the best. Little known fact: when they started their set, they were out of tune. They stopped in the middle of the song to retune,... 
PS Audio PWD MkII vs W4S DAC2
Knghifi,You say that 2.4.3 is best sounding DAC Firmware thus far. Was this immediately apparent or was some "burn in" required. (Not sure how Firmware burns in.) Can you elaborate a bit on the improvements?I likely will try it but want to have so... 
A New Superstar Power Cord
LessLoss DFPC Sig #2. installed on PS Audio PWD MkII DAC. Have not had much time to auditon or burn in, but short-term experience slightly different so far from awe-inspiring Sig #1 used on preamp.On DAC, eerie sense of quiet, crystalline clarity,... 
PS Audio PWD MkII vs W4S DAC2
While on the PWD MKII DAC topic, has anyone loaded the latest firmware (2.4 something)? Before I make the move, interested to hear comments. Yes, it can be reversed, but it is a pain tooling with these things.Neal 
A New Superstar Power Cord
Will do, Lak. Per Louis Motek's suggestion, the next one (due in tomorrow) would serve best placed on my PS Audio PWD Mk II DAC, where I think a Nordost Valhalla now resides. The comparo should be interesting.Neal 
PS Audio PWD MkII vs W4S DAC2
Cymbop,Just saw your question. Yes, more than ever. It has become a permanent part of my audio family. I don't think much about it, which is the highest compliment I can pay a component. Just groove to the sounds.I don't use USB; only AES/EBU (Ste... 
Music Servers - Baetis vs. Music Vault
Why not try a Bryston BDP-1 or -2 and portable HD;s or a NAS. Simple, bulletproof, fab sound.Neal 
A New Superstar Power Cord
About a week on -- It's A-live!To be candid, I am embarrassed to gush, but I simply cannot get over the startling audible improvement in my system from the insertion of one PC at the preamp. Last night I was listening to WFUV FM in NY, a listener ... 
A New Superstar Power Cord
To JMCgrogan2,I actually think very highly of the Valhalla cords and find them different from the IC's which I also have in BR system. I find them more neutral and fuller bodied than IC's and eminently liveable.I don't listen to an IC or PC for sp... 
A New Superstar Power Cord
I have compared it to Nordost Valhalla, Elrod Statement and 2S, LessLoss Sig, an Audience cord whose model # I am not sure of, and Kimber PK10 Palladian. The sound is smoother (with no loss of detail) and more natural, with more burn-in. In fact, ... 
HiDiamond P4 vs Nordost Valhalla PC
I received the LessLoss DFPC Reference PC and my initial impressions have been posted (subject to moderator clearance.)In a word, the cord is OUTSTANDING, and I am not given to gratuitous praise just because I paid money for a cable. An instantly ...
