| App/Player for Bricasti DACs? I have read some stunning reviews about the Bricasti hardware and sound quality. I am interested. But I have found very little info about the UI options for selecting streaming services and picking music? Having TuneIn is a must for me as I enjoy ... | |
| 432 EVO There are a bunch of east European products that are getting real attention. Places like Poland and Romania, etc. That is all great.But some of these brands might only have one online dealer in the USA? So, Americans who buy this stuff are early a... | |

The “that’s just silly money” point for one person might be the bare minimum for another. I see a ton of “all DACs sound the same” and “don’t spend money on a DAC as it will be obsolete in a month”... | |

| Is a Linn Sondek LP12/Lingo/Ekos with a Cirkus update, the last turntable I’ll ever buy? @coachpoconnorYou should head over to the Linn Club on the HiFIWigWam forum, which is a UK centric audiophile forum. Linn closed down their own active forum so most folks are over there now. This is the best place to learn and share all things Lin... | |
| Is a Linn Sondek LP12/Lingo/Ekos with a Cirkus update, the last turntable I’ll ever buy? To say that Gilad (the son of Linn’s founder) has no interest in their LP12 tables is total nonsense. I went to an event last spring and listened to Gilad and another team member do a 30 min presentation (the first in the world) on the new Karouse... | |
