The Mhdt lab Balanced Pagoda DAC
Wow, Ozzy62 you must be a stickler for proper grammar and sentence structure. Maybe we can talk off line about hiring you to edit my writing here on the GON for a reasonable sum of payment! Let me know. I'd be happy to.....for a fee, lol.Howeve... 
The Mhdt lab Balanced Pagoda DAC
Well I can’t speak to teajay’s reviews, I don’t read anything on sixmoons. I know that from reading his posts here that Srajan must be quite a busy bee with the editor’s pencil. But that’s neither here nor there.However, I do have a Pagoda in the ... 
Theta Audio DAC will not play on Onkyo Receiver
The Theta DAC should be outputting the standard redbook 2v, or no more than 3v I would say. Any line level input on the Onkyo should be fine. Is the level too high or too low?Oz 
Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go?
Wjt3I didn’t really hear a lot of difference in the bass, but then again, my speakers have powered subs built in. What I can tell you is that I too have the Carver 275 and this preamp seems to be an excellent match for it. As you know, the Carver ...

Anyone compared Morrow Audio Interconnect cables with Audio Envy Prestige interconnects?
The only difference between Morrow and Audio Envy is the clever advertising! Add some expectation bias and you'll be a happy camper! All cables sound the same, all amps sound the same, blah, blah, blah......We get it already. You can move on to... 
If I just use a DAC, do I need a Pre-amp?
The first thing to do is rid your signal chain of all processors, filters and "mini eq, etc. Then and only then can you worry about things like preamps.And I would forgo the Fisher for something more modern (and better!)Oz 
Ice Age Audio?
Not everyone has your deep pockets, ebm.........

Really need help choosing audio streamer !!!
The Node 2i is a good value and sounds fine for what it is. However, if your ambitions are a little higher, the Lumin U1 Mini sounds appreciably better.Oz 
Tube Dac ?
My question is did you make a wrong turn somewhere?I think you zigged when you should have zagged. 
Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers
mrotino,You have only scratched the surface with 40 hours on the speakers. Mine improved up to and beyond 300 hours. The bass will benefit the most, becoming more prodigious with better presence and slam with kick drum and electric bass guitar. It... 
Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers
But I have a few questions...- how wide is your room.?- did it take a lot of time to find their ideal position?- is it better to have more space behind them - I have about 8 ft available- have you tried them further away from the wall behind the...
