| Aliexpress no longer an option Ask the 10 million truck drivers who’ll be out of work since there’s no more container ships in Seattle or LA’s harbors. They’re all up in Vancouver. Ask the 20 million retail workers who may be out of work as well as stock dwindles. Owners can’... | |
| DAC 'Scam' Vid Isn't this the second thread on the same or similar video? This crowd is getting rather tiring. | |
| $10 Dollar DAC Sounds Perfect? So...that article convinced you that you weren't hearing what you're hearing? | |
| Toslink optical cables: Audioquest Optilink 3 vs Glass? Thought I'd check back in and I agree with @agisthos on the strand count. I had the Lifatec before I got the DH Labs and to my ears, the DH Labs outperformed the Lifatec for my CDP use even with less glass thread count. During my research, I cam... | |
| Chinese DAC's That video is over three years old. One of the latest from Jay is his love of Fosi Audio from his trip to Apoxna and they're all made in China. So there's that to consider. All the best, Nonoise | |
| Optical Toslink cable quality? Is there a difference? Just like 44.1/16 bit can literally blow you away when done right, 96/24 bit can do it one better, when done right. Having said that, a great Toslink cable in a very revealing system may be all you need, leaving you to wonder if all the talk about... | |
| Optical Toslink cable quality? Is there a difference? Another rationalization for not spending more while the desire to get something better is eating away from the inside because they don't like the sound that they're getting. The Fox and the Sour Grapes. That kind of thinking will never come to an... | |
| Toslink optical cables: Audioquest Optilink 3 vs Glass? I haven't compared the AQ to anything but have tried a couple touted here and found the DH Labs Glass Master Toslink to rule the roost. At $235 for one meter It's comfortably under your maximum and the way I see it, you'll be rolling the dice and... | |
| Anyone Else Tried Darwin Cables? @stuartk You're very welcome. I've tried several brands before I took a flyer on these and the difference is painfully obvious. I used to go with the bigger the gauge crowd with robust connections and they all exhibited the same thing: smearing, l... | |
| Anyone Else Tried Darwin Cables? I believe that was me who recommended them. I've been using them for many years and feel no need to look elsewhere. What I have done is peruse their specials page and moved up the line some. Worth every penny. All the best, Nonoise | |
| DHL to stop shipping electronics over $800 That, and Hong Kong will stop sending any postal packages to or from the US and China will stop purchasing LNG from the US (Texas actually). Smoke 'em while you got 'em. All the best, Nonoise | |
| GaN FET Amps vs. Traditional Class D Amps I love the sound of my Technics SU-G700M2, which uses GaN FET. Takes me to la-la land every time. All the best, Nonoise | |
| Chinese DAC's Just in Time manufacturing came about as way to increase corporate profits. They claimed that warehousing parts and the employees needed to run it were bloated and a wasteful use of money and resources. They claimed we had a stable enough world ec... | |
| Happy Easter to all that celebrate! Happy Easter everyone! All the best, Nonoise | |
| What Meatloaf and Beer Have Taught me about Audiophiles Meatloaf doesn’t get enough credit for the wonderful meal it is. With so many takes and recipes, it’s a motherload of taste and flavor. How can anyone not love this? All the best, Nonoise |
