| Movie/film suggestions. @immatthewj Thanks for the heads up. I've always liked movies that can honestly depict reality with all its warts and shortcomings. It can be done seriously and humorously (with the right people making it). All the best, Nonoise | |
| Help! Pre amp turning on by itself. Call Fathers Damien Karras and Lankester Merrin, and bring towels. | |
| Movie/film suggestions. I don't know if this was already mentioned but Out of the Furnace is one unrelentingly somber take on family, drug addiction and poverty with Christian Bale, Casey Affleck, Zoe Saldana, Woody Harrelson (as one mean villain), Willam Dafoe, Forrest ... | |
| Has anyone switched from Class AB/A to Class D? Was it better? Was it worse? I prefer the sound of my Technics SU-G700M2 to what I've owned in the past, which have been various Class A/B makes, a Vinnie Rossi battery powered integrated (RedWine) and a EL34 tube integrated. Just don't call the Technics a Class D amp as they... | |
| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? Don't worry folks. Pretty soon texasjerry will lose it like he always has. He always goes out with a bang, cursing, berating, using huge font, etc. Not long after he does that, he'll be banned again. It might behoove newer members here to take no... | |
| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? Always consider the source. (that was an audio joke) All humor aside, take into the consideration the topic and proceed from there. All the best, Nonoise | |
| 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 |
