| New or Old DAC Cajunpepe- Please tell me that you don't prefer the sticking of of a fork in the Electrical Outlet, the same as your two friends Jmcgrogan2 and Almarg. Hey guys, there are only so many Darwin awards to go around! So exactly what kind of drug am I ... | |
| New or Old DAC Everyone-you can give up on me, but please don't give up on the Laws of Physics, nor Electrical and Electronic Theory! You might live a little longer, and you just might avoid earning that Darwin Award! The Power Supply to any Circuit is separate ... | |
| New or Old DAC Jmcgrogan2- No-one is misinterpreting the Digital to Analog Converter chip to mean the Power Supply. Just don't understand how you can eliminate or exclude the Power Supply from the Digital to Analog Converter Chip Circuit. We are supposed to excl... | |
| New or Old DAC Audiofeil- perhaps YOUR tradition continues after you servedin the U.S. Navy years ago. Atleast I can abreviate "U S"! It is that funny looking key on your keyboard with an arrow pointing to your right (your military right-damn it) with a weird li... | |
| New or Old DAC Almarg-everything that you and Jmcgrogan2 have suggested-can only lead to one conclusion. That you and him both believe that there is a serious distinction between the DC Current Supply to the Analog Stage as opposed to the Digital Stage. If not-w... | |
| New or Old DAC Pettyofficer: Sorry to disagree, my Space Tech Lab DA-64XT DAC utilizes an STR-104 Tube Rectifier. This Rectifier does have two very, very large Tubes that supply power to all of the components within the DAC. Nice try Almarg, components within... | |
| New or Old DAC Almarg- I am going to try this one more time. It doesn't matter if one is refering to the DAC as the entire component or strictly the the "digital to analog converter" dac circuit or chip! There is no distinguishing the power supply within the ove... | |
| New or Old DAC Almarg- "The Rectifying Stage Circuit IS the Power Supply, and it is an Analog Circuit" Then if the Rectifying Stage Circuit IS the Power Supply, and it utilizes Tubes, then Jmcgrogan2's claim that no-one uses Tubes-fancy Caps-or Resistors in the ... | |
| New or Old DAC Almarg-The Power Supply to Analog circuitry, as well as Digital circuitry, comes from the same source. It is Direct Current from the Rectifying Stage. This Direct Current isn't Transmogrified if it is supplying an Analog circuit instead of a Digit... | |
| New or Old DAC Great! Analog based DC Power exists, the Earth really is flat, the Moon is really made of Green Cheese, the Loch Ness Monster really exists, so does Big Foot, the Land of OZ really exists, and Smoking actually improves your health! Are there any o... | |
| New or Old DAC You want the short version? Analog based DC Power is a completely bogus and twisted concept. Analog based DC Power, this is your word construct, not mine! It is something that would be constructed by someone who has no idea of how a Power Supply w... | |
| New or Old DAC Jmcgrogan2-Sorry, I am still trying to translate what you are saying into something that makes sense. You classified DC Power to an Analog Stage as being, "Analog Based". Since when if both Analog and Digital Stages are based on DC Power Supplies.... | |
| digital front end to rival best vinyl? I am currently using a hard drive based Digital Front End. I use a Universal Player that Downmixes Multi-channel SACD/DVD-Audio to 2-Channels. It is the closest that I have heard any Silver Disk come to compete with Vinyl, and that includes the 2-... | |
| New or Old DAC Jmcgrogan2- I am still awaiting an answer! How is A.C. Current that has been Rectified to D.C. Current, and is Voltage Regulated, and now supplies Analog as well as Digital Stages, Analog Based? Direct Current is Direct Current regardless if it is... | |
| To mod or not to mod, dac is the question Dear Kyneo, the MOD Squad includes Theta, Wadia, Mark Levinson, and just about every Silver Disk spinning High End Manufacturer Out there. All of them use Disk Drives made by Pioneer, Sony, or Phillips. Either you MOD for yourself, or you pay some... |
