OPPO UDP- 205 VS PS AUDIO PWD MK2
Adding to my post above, I am using both the PS Direct Stream Memory Stream player and the PS Direct Stream Dac. Both cost $6000 each. So the price difference between the Oppo 205 is significant. And so is the sound quality.ozzy

OPPO UDP- 205 VS PS AUDIO PWD MK2
If you are referring to the PS Audio Direct Stream Memory Player... I own one and also the Oppo 205. The PS DS player is way better for 2 channel music playing. Although the cost is $6000 compared to $1200 for the Oppo, and the Oppo plays 4K/Blu r...

almarg,Inside my DEQX Premate unit the jumpers are labeled as; R bass, L bass, R mid, L mid, R high, L high.On the back of the unit the outputs are labeled as you say which also corresponds to the DEQX home screen.Confusing? So is the manual...All...

almarg,Thanks but no the high- output needs the jumpers in place. Without them the DEQX unit will output considerable hiss through the balanced outputs. But, perhaps the mid jumpers are not needed with my model.I sent a email to DEQX on Sunday ask...

Latest Update on the Carver ALS Speakers. I now have about 100 hours of playing time on the Carver ALS speakers. To my displeasure they initially exhibited upper treble brightness and a low output level. The upper treble I thought would clear up w...

david_ten,Well its funny, the DEQX jumper situation didn’t really surface until I got the Carver speakers. This week I will post more on the speaker thread.ozzy 
Carver Raven 350 Amps
Well I did a disservice to the Carver Raven 350 Amps based on one of my previous posts about hiss coming from the Carver amps when using the balanced outputs from my DEQX.I discovered that my DEQX preamp had some internal output jumpers in the wro...

soix, Thanks for your comments. Each speaker has 13 tweeters, one supertweeter and 18 midwoofers. So there is a lot of piston area to break in.Each day after I have run the Purist break in disc for hours I find that the speakers are getting better...

dracule1,I agree. I was surprised by the Carver employee taking such a hard line on the subject. Even Bob does not believe wire or caps break in but he feels speakers do.But I sure do...ozzy
