| Endgame Vocal+ DAC Help: Terminator Plus 12th vs. Chord DAVE vs. Holo May vs. Weiss502. Thanks, all. I should say, despite the Denafrips not being for me, Alvin at Vinshine was awesome.

| Endgame Vocal+ DAC Help: Terminator Plus 12th vs. Chord DAVE vs. Holo May vs. Weiss502. Welp, for those interested, I went in a rather totally different direction.

| Endgame Vocal+ DAC Help: Terminator Plus 12th vs. Chord DAVE vs. Holo May vs. Weiss502. Wow. Thank you all for your responses. Here again, it looks like DAVE takes the cake. I am deeply concerned about anything sounding harsh - as the way the RME ADI sounded just plain hurt after a song or two. And, well, I feel weird about knowing... | |
| Julien Baker - Vocal-centered Music. Hey Deadhead, Thanks for getting back to me! I'll add trying out the Grados to my list. Thanks for actually taking the time to give Julien a listen, too - while she's only one of my favorite artists, the style of music from top to bottom best e... |
