| PrimaLuna Prologue 5 question I would keep it, unless you really need the cash. You will always find a use for it. Built to last forever. Rich | |
| What I really hate about some music Hi Frank - I think you will find that most of the responders here are in the same age range, give or take, as yourself. So, no surprise that anyone's tastes, myself included, may have changed or matured over the last 50 or 60 years. I own a lot... | |
| Which sounds better: I2S or Coax. Correct. There is no industry standard, so it is proprietary to the manufacturer. In the case of PSA, its SACD transport is designed to work with its DAC using I2S (HDMI). That is just how it is. When I first purchased the PSA SACD transport... | |
| Which sounds better: I2S or Coax. Hi RSA - If you will be using PS Audio, you can only use I2S if you wish to access everything that the PSA transport & DAC will offer. Period. End of Story. This is how PSA designed its components to work. The SACD handshake will only occu... | |
| Technics SL1210 MKII Hi - Have two systems - one with a Technics 1210 (Decware phono preamp; Prima Luna PL 5 power amp; and Musical Fidelity CD PRE 24 preamp) and the other with a Technics 1500 (Rogue Sphinx 3 integrated amp). Both systems have Zu Audio speakers. B... | |

| High Efficiency Options? Not sure why you would be put off by Zu Audio. Some of the most enjoyable and satisfying speakers I own and I use them with my Prima Luna PL5. Just ordered a second pair to go with my Rogue Sphinx. In any event, take a look at the offerings fro... | |
| How can a PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC enhance my system? Make the call to PS Audio. As Iwin stated the PSA DAC will play your digital formats. The raw DSD layer of copyright protected SACD goes directly into your PS Audio DAC through I2S only. Rich | |
| How can a PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC enhance my system? It is a nice sounding DAC. Like everything else, you should audition it, if you have the opportunity to. I believe there is a new version of it coming out soon, though I may be mistaken. Rich | |
| everything sounded great until the upgrade @grislybutter - hell of a waste of a good player, when a baseball bat or brick could have done the same thing. If it helps any, I use a Decware phono preamp with my CD Pre24 and Technics 1210 TT. Rich | |

| everything sounded great until the upgrade @ grislybutter - Hi. I have been using MF amps & CD players for almost 20 years. My thoughts fwiw: I found the MF A3 preferable to the A3.2, Not by a wide margin. Both the A3 & A3.2 were both way preferable to the newer M2. I found ... | |

| Can a Amp be "timeless" and compete with todays amps? Enthusiastic 'yes' to upgrading the VACs and enjoying then for another 20 years, God wish. I am only a few years from you age wise. Like you, I am in the process myself of determining the baseline system for the next 15 or 20. My Prima Luna amp... |
