PS Direct Stream Vs. Lumin X 1 Sound quality difference? I reread an online review of the Lumin X1 I think it was the Absolute Sound and in that review they suggested running the X1 output in DSD 512.I just tried it and so far it does sound very good. Better stage presence.ozzy | |

Upgrade Carver to Tube Carver question. I am running the Carver M350 amps with my Focal Sopra 2's. Much better than the Pass Labs or Atmasphere amps prior. Very nice combination.ozzy | |
Computer Guru's, Does my external Hard Drive go to sleep if its still blinking? onhwy61, It’s not the light, its whether or not it shortens the hard drive lifespan. The hard drive costs close to $200. And, though I have other back ups, if one of them needs to be put into action, I would need to buy another HD and copy the fil... | |
Average age of audiophiles I started out going to junk yards with my parents picking up old raw speakers. I had them placed all around the basement, installed switches to turn various ones on/off. Didn’t know much about impedance back then. Later at age 17 I worked as a sal... | |

Thoughts on PS Audio Perfectwave DAC ? I also owned one for a few years. It was a pretty good sounding unit. I had trouble with it playing HR files from a Bryston BDP-2 though.Paul and Ted kept promising a fix (for over 2 years!).I ended up trading in both units towards a Lumin X1.ozzy | |

Computer Guru's, Does my external Hard Drive go to sleep if its still blinking? Its a Western Digital drive. I have tried to contact them, no luck.I do have 2 additional back ups but it would be nice to know if I need to deplug when not in use.ozzy | |
Is Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF) sexist? I built my audio system in the basement. Thus I am able to deal with it anyway I want. I understand that my wife likes her things and I like mine.To me, the break up of the nuclear family is the cause of much of the problems that exist today.It is... | |
Computer Guru's, Does my external Hard Drive go to sleep if its still blinking? What I have noticed is that when the Lumin is powered off manually the hard drive light goes off completely even though it is still plugged into AC.So, when the Lumin is in sleep mode the hard drive light blinks which is telling me it is the usb c... | |
Computer Guru's, Does my external Hard Drive go to sleep if its still blinking? Ok, when the Lumin went into sleep mode the hard drive was not vibrating.So, does that mean it is ok to leave the hard drive connected full time?ozzy | |
Computer Guru's, Does my external Hard Drive go to sleep if its still blinking? noromance,You know while the Lumin is running I can feel vibrations in the hard drive. I actually placed some f-Q2 under it.I'm going to check if the hard drive still vibrates when the Lumin is in sleep mode. Good idea!If it doesn't, does that mea... |
