| Jitter reduction, best device? mapmani disagree on your theory that your ears can tell if you have jitter or not. all i can tell you is if you hook up the jitter device between the source component and the dac, you will hear a big improvement, something you won't hear until you... | |
| Looking for a small bedroom amp i don't remember. it will have a clear cover to it. it sounded fantastic. i'm thinking about purchasing 1 when it comes out. i wrote jolida and they said feb. the decco also sounded very good. its between those 2. a little bit more $$$ and the pri... | |
| Adcom DAC the gda-600 is ok for an entry level dac. i use the adcom gda-700 in my den setup. the 700 is another couple levels up from the 600. as for any 16 or 20 bit older dacs, i think a lot of them are better than some of the current 24/96 dacs. last tim... | |

| Airport Express to DAC - Cable Suggestion install a jitter remover device between the AE and your dac. i do this in all of my setups and the sound is vastly improved. you can use a toslink cable from the AE to the jitter device, then use aes or coax to the dac depending on what is support... | |
| NHT SuperOne vs. 1.3 vs. 1.5? i have owned in the past the nht super zeros, super ones, 1.5's, nht subs, and the 2.9's. i would opt for the 1.5's with a warm sounding amp, like mcintosh, or classe. most nht's tilt to the 'cool' side. | |
| John Klemmer tom scott and boney james are 2 of my favorites. we saw boney james last year and it was excellent. other artitsts that i listen to are: dave koz, kirk whalum, david sanborn (terrible in concert IMO), eric marienthal, joshua redman, and patrick la... | |
