| WHAT IS THE MOST UNIQUE SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD? Can't say one but there are a few very special songs that touch my heart. Among them areLike a rolling stone, Just like a Woman of Bob DylanQuite a few Jimi Hendrix's songs among them Crosstown Traffic, Red House, Little Wing, Castles made of san... | |
| My NAD 3020 D proves your Class D tropes are wrong Blaming on Class D in general is just a nonsense. It is not a matter of a taste, rather it is an objective reality that there are quite affordable class D amps that sound better than many more expensive class ab amps in terms of all objective so... | |
| Should say this and be fair with PS Audio stuff I have tried to hook up the Stellar S300 with other preamp, a Nuprime headphone amp, a Mcintosh pre and Wired4Sound STP 2. While the latter pre in general, I like more than Gain Cell, guess what, i like the combination Gain Cell with S300 the mos... | |
| Class D for a Tube Lover According to my personal experience, it makes not much sense to mix class D with tube preamplification. While class D may give a clear very low distortion sound, tubes would always add a notable (for me) distortion that ruins class D clean sound. ... | |
| SQ vs. Music Good question! I personally distinguish two separate joys when listening to a recording. I may enjoy just the sound, sound quality, how different instruments are recorded and reproduced, and of course I mainly enjoy the music I am listening to. I... | |
| I admire Miles Davis, i admire Stravinsky; but i loved Chet Baker and Scriabin...You? There is a very nice album of Kenneth Wheeler with John Taylor - i also like Wheeler. Check out also Paolo Fresu if you like trumpet. | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly @djones,Empirical evidence can also be anecdotal evidence and persons postulating on how much difference a cable makes in the sound coming from their speakers is empirical and anecdotal evidence. @audio2design gave an excellent overview, according... | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly this is true, but at the same time empirical study cannot exist without a theory, these two things are tied. given a theory, you may verify it empirically if you are unable to prove its soundness theoretically. in physics, this is a common practic... | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly ATMFRANK, do you find a notable additional difference with and without Allo Digione Signature/Raspberry (do you need any special things to install it, it seems it comes without a case right), what DAC you have? | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly To me as well, folks, the thoughts of ATMFRANK are logical and convincing, I would rather trust such reasoning. | |
| Why so many angry audiophiles? I think this thread touched important issues (that we face daily) indeed consider it relevant. As to me, I completely share the thought of @tomcy6. | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly Sure but the "cleaned" signal again enters to DAC, cannot it again poorly extract the sampling info? | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly Your DAC likely is not able to deal with the higher jitter of an optical interface. Coax has less jitter. audio2 and douglas, do you mean the optical converter or the optical cable? In both cases, a similar problem may occur in Ethernet to opt... | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly I didn't read all the posts, have a simple question. I use wifi with Node2 and have tried both, coax and optical connection to my DAC. According to all this, optical should sound cleaner (as a fiber filter), however coax cable sounds better. A co... | |
| I admire Miles Davis, i admire Stravinsky; but i loved Chet Baker and Scriabin...You? Who likes Kurt Elling may also like Randy Newman |
