New USB and Toslink cables
What breaks in on the cable????? 
Cable Elevators killed my bass
In my experience, moving cables can affect the performance until they re-settle.You are joking right??? How exactly does it effect performance from an engineering perspective.. What re-settles?? If you lift them up higher does the bass diminish ev... 
Cable Elevators killed my bass
"Cable Elevators killed my bass"I think you got off on the wrong floor. Did you buy the Shakti stones as well??? 
Shakti Stones Do they actuall work guys.
I returned mine through the window... It worked great in that capacity. I have some ocean front property in Iowa if anyone is interested. 
Krell KSA150 vs KSA100S & KSA100 for Inf Kappa 9
If driven properly the Kappa 9's are still better than many of todays speakers. They were innovative for their time with the emit and semit drivers. Yes, and unfortunately hard on amplifiers. None the less, still a bargain and very musical from Ar... 
PC-Based Set Up/Process - Comments?
Foobar will allow the use of a ASIO driver. There is also ASIO for All. I am not to sure if the latter works as well as a sound card driver based solution. Both will bypass Kmixer. I use dithering and secret rabbit code with Foobar 0.83 to the DAC...

ASIO based driver and soundcard to bypass Kmixer. 
VSA VR4 jr's with Bryston mono's?
The 7BSSt amps are great. I have 4 of them running the Infinity RS1B's and could not be happier. Very solid bass, and clean highs. They should meet your long term requirements well. 
Help with PC Audio Quality vs. CD
Try running Foobar 8.3 with the SCR and dithering. Yes, adding noise to the DAC can open up the imaging a bit more. Run ASIO4All with the card or asio drivers for Foobar. Make sure you try 44.1 output first. Upsampling in software has proven no di... 
Best bargain for speaker that can offer top sound
Infinity RS1B or the Kappa 9 series blows them all away for the price.Happy Listening 
Up to the Minute: Streaming Bits to Audiophile DAC
Quit your whining and show some proof that the jitter is still present. I guess Arnie and gang is is a fool for creating such a product. Several write ups confirm that the jitter is reduced consideralby, to the point of nil. If you are hawking you... 
Up to the Minute: Streaming Bits to Audiophile DAC
Cwlondon,I never looked into using a USB device or any other regarding the output to the DAC. There is no need when a capable card is able to output a bit perfect stream. With Foobar or an ASIO plugin you have eliminated the Kmixer in a windows ba... 
Up to the Minute: Streaming Bits to Audiophile DAC
Jitter is dependant on the last out device to the DAC. How the DAC handles the jitter depends on the build quality. Bits are bits, period. Whether SPDIF or Toslink does not matter to the DAC. If there is electrical interference, that is a differen... 
best all-round,full range at $2000
None of the above mentioned can stand up to the Infinity Kappa 9's. Tough to drive but worth every penny. Have fun 
What is Best Sound from PC into MF Tri-vista
I have the Tri Vista 21 DAC as well and use Foobar as the frontend with a Chaintek sound card. Output is with kernel streaming via SPDIF. The DAC is connected to a BP25 and 4 7BST amps. Output and sound quality to the RS1B's is superb. I store all...
