Help with finding ultra-transparent pre-amp Wyetech Pre. I think the Jade is in your price range. I have the Opal and it is as fast, dynamic and neutral as you will find in an SS or tube pre. No balanced ins or outs, though.Neal | |

Reliable Sources for 6SN7 Tubes Thanks to all. With these recommendations, I am sure to find something suitable.Neal | |
Any audiophile grade optical cables? The VDH Optocoupler is an excellent optical cable (I have used it), but in my experience, 110 ohm digital cables generally sound better.Neal | |

which dac? Dodson 218 if you can swing it (and find a used one), or 217 MkII, which also was great. These have stood the test of time in my system. They don't do anything wrong and a lot right.Nglazer | |

Indra Terminations Thanks, Rja. May I ask if that is based on comparison of Indracables with the diffrent terminations?Neal | |
tube pre amp and Krell FPB 600 I don't know about the pre-"cx" models, but I have a FPB 300cx and there is an internal adjustment that needs to be made to accommodate tube pres. I have had this done and my amp works just fine with my Wyetech Opal tube pre. Is this discussed in ... | |
USB-SPDIF Cable Thank you. I guess I meant a converter. Not that hip yet to PC to audio connections.Neal | |
