| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review That SOTA was one of the few things I have bought sight unseen and was surprised at really how good it was. I did a little homework, demoed a few locally but I thought the SOTA was the best bang for the buck. I don’t buy things based on revie... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review The table in question is the follow up to the Escape. It's basically an Escape with a nice wood cabinet instead of a resin. Too bad they didn't elaborate on its performance because if it is anything like my Escape / Origin Live Silver , it sho... | |
| Lab12 DAC1 Reference Problem I used the Lab 12 with a Vault 2i and it's volume control. If the PC can attenuate the digital out then it is possible. | |

| Whats playing on your system today? I meant album!, I’m streaming it. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Gary Clark Jr. JPEG RAW. Very good record. | |

| Streamer/DAC combinations With DACs I think auditioning at home in your system is a must... you are splitting hairs when it comes to DACs. They are better than they have ever been. | |
