| Making a PC into a digital CD Jukebox The M-Audio Transit isn't some sonic giant killer, but it is a reasonable sounding product that works exactly as advertised at an honest price. For less than $100 you only get some much. | |
| Making a PC into a digital CD Jukebox Computer based juke boxes are far and away the best way for a music lover to access their music collection. The key to such a system is the software and how well it integrates with your computer hardware. I believe the Apple iTunes software and an... | |
| Making a PC into a digital CD Jukebox How many CDs are you talking about ripping and what level of sound quality do you desire? Also does your system have a high quality D/A converter with external inputs? Your answers are important because you can configure a computer to achieve adeq... | |
| What's the chances of this Let me explain : It's actually surprising that this type of problem doesn't occur more often. I have a Zenith TV and a Sony DVD where pressing fast forward triggers the Zenith's picture in picture function. It's a pain, but for me only a minor pain. Your cursor ke... | |
| money best spent on better dac, transport, preamp? Dump the CD, DAC and preamp and spend the combined $3,000 budget on a recent vintage CD player with a volume control. Wadia comes to mind, but there are others that fit the bill. | |
| Aerius Revival Exactly how did you uncouple and then recouple the membrane? | |
| Does Your System Sound Like the Real Thing? Tubegroover, your response in the another thread is the reason I started asked this question. It's the 2nd 6/8 post by Tubegroover. | |

| Eric Clapton covers Robert Johnson Go to the AMG listing for Robert Johnson & Me and go down to the credits. It lists 2 or 3 digital engineers. Also if you look at the resumes of the engineers they have extensive credits in modern pop styles (N'Sync, Christiana Aguilera etc.) T... | |
| How important is a flat response? I second what Ptmconsluting wrote.Ethan Winer is a noted acoustician and here's a link to a discussion forum he moderates. Notice the graph of the bass response in his personal room. It's definitely not flat. Room modes make it virtually impossibl... | |
| What high-end cdp for low-end quality CD's ? It's only in the audiophile world that people are trying to make digital sound like vinyl. Real progress in audio reproduction is being made by those who are trying to make digital (and to a lesser extent analog tape) sound like the signal coming ... | |
| No one cares this is the anniversary? I'm not sure why you would think no one cares, the media is absolutely saturated with D-Day tributes and remembrances. What always impresses me when I hear or see WW2 vets is how they are so self deprecating. They don't consider themselves heroes,... | |
| Point to point wiring. While not disagreeing with Rushton's comments, you should not conclude that point to point is inherently superior to circuit board based designs. Each accomplishes the same goal and you would have to look at the overall circuit design to infer whi... | |
| Good Quality Distilled Water??? Supermarket bought distilled water is more than good enough for record cleaning purposes. If you feel it's inadequate, than any pharmacy can sell you pharmaceutical grade distilled water. By itself distilled water won't clean a record, but it can ... | |
| Dat to CDR? Assuming your DAT has a digital output and your CDR has a digital input, then all you need is an appropriate digital cable.Hopefully, your DAT tapes were recorded at 44.1 not a 48 sampling rate. If the latter you'll need a sample rate converter. M... |
