Six DAC Comparison I use an Iris 12th DDC in front of my Audio Mirror DAC. Makes a very noticeable improvement. | |

Audio Mirror Tubadour V @hasmarto I will report back once I have the III SE ungraded. @dhungana I decided to try a Denafrips DDC. I picked one up just before I got the III SE. It made a noticeable difference with the Orchid and a similar improvement with the III SE. We... | |
Audio Mirror Tubadour V I picked up a used Tubadour III SE partly based on feedback from this thread. I had a highly modified MHDT Orchid (Grannyring) and the III SE just edges out the modified Orchid. Attacks and decays have a little more natural 3D presentation. A step... | |
Technics SL 1200 GR In addition to the Nagaoka JT 80 Black, which I have, I would also recommend the Nagaoka MP-500. Both are excellent carts. The MP-500 will give you more transparency and perhaps keep you from wanting to upgrade down the road. | |
dac recommendations for turntable listener? +1 on adding a better power supply to the Node. This should help with the sibilance, tame harshness and add more clarity. I highly recommend Fidelity Audio in UK. Their Reference interface board and LPS make an exceptional difference. But the Tedd... | |
New Steely Dan Aja Maybe not completely relevant, I have the same mastering by Bernie G/ Acoustic Sounds on SACD. This beats my Japan pressing on vinyl, which beats my US pressing and streaming from Qubuz. Worth getting IMO. | |

Question on Luxman L-AX550ii balanced inputs I owned and loved the 550AXII before upgrading within the lineup. It is very robust. What is your source component? | |
Looking for a CD / SACD player. Also, tell me about Esoteric I have a Luxman D-05u from the previous generation. Amazing player, sound and build. Balanced out, great internal DAC. Uses Luxman's proprietary transport, one of the best available. Plays SACD's/hybrids as well as CD's. The Luxman D-03x listed a... | |
Question on Luxman L-AX550ii balanced inputs You state that your source has a max output of 5.8v. Does that mean your source has a variable output? If so, try it turned down low. The manual states: Pre-amplifier Input sensitivity/input impedance LINE : 180 mV / 47 kΩ MONITOR : 180 mV / 4... | |

Stack Audio Auva Isolator Ozzy62, The Hans Beekhuyzen Channel has reviewed both the 70 and 50. Like Ozzy stated, Hans also said you get more isolation. I went for the 100, but I bet the 70 would be great also. |
