| Whats on your turntable tonight? Elvis Presley - 'That's the way it is' 4 LP set, still sounding absolutely wonderful.. | |
| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... Just stumbled upon this thread, very timely too as I have recently at last, fitted my ART-9 to my SAEC WE506/30. I have been working on (and off - as time permits) a rebuild of a 1978 Sony TTS 8000 with the SAEC in my own plinth design. The plinth... | |

Head for the California room! Charles, are you going? I'll be there with CF..Branislav, looking forward to your compari... | |

The design is pure... | |
| Length of digital cable? Cam, It would be an interesting shoot out, the IC you have has a reputation for excellence!RgdsPaul. | |
| Length of digital cable? Hi Camb,Thank you, it all depends on the cable design, termination, and transmission and receiver circuits. In our tests, the audible results are superior with a specific design over short lengths, which also minimises potential interference from ... | |
| Length of digital cable? Although BNC would theoretically be preferable to RCA connection, there is actually next to no audible difference between an spdif using either. Steve mentions that the BNC must be designed for a particular cable, which frankly is a dubious statem... | |
| Digital Shorting Plugs Agreed Steve, I fail to understand what they would achieve. | |
| Do cables settle in? IME, all systems take a while to settle and sound natural after moving pieces around, hence at audio shows, the first day is never the best sounding, the second or last days usually far better.. | |
| Reference DACS: An overall perspective dCS Vivaldi is without a doubt a very good piece if used from the transport via CD, less so from hard drive.. From CD though, it is exemplary, certainly up with the very best. But, as some will know, I use the same digital as Teajay, MBL1621a / CF... | |
| Another DAC bits and Hz question The point that Zd542 raises is highly valid. Analog output stage is equally important as the conversion stage itself, and given a true (and tested!) 75ohm input, the DAC output will be as good as anything sold today. Some 80's 16 bit chips are far... |
