PASS LABS XP-22 vs. XP-12 I am using a Pass XA-25 and considered the XP-12, but tried a Backert Labs Rhumba 1.3. It is a superb preamp and makes a wonderful combination with my Pass. And it is less expensive than the XP-12. | |

It is also possible that they enter their cost for an item in the computer and it multiplies that figure by a desired percentage for the sale price.

Verastarr-Grand Illusion The Statement Hybrid is a combination of gold and silver combining the attributes of both. Contact Mike Powell at Verastarr to get a detailed explanation. | |
Verastarr-Grand Illusion I put a Hybrid Statement power cord on my PSA Directstream DAC. It was a revelation. The music became much fuller and the soundstage expanded in width and depth. The music just went into a full blossom. It was as if I spent $10k more on a dac ... | |
Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC fsmithjack ,I sold my Bricasti M1SE when I bought my DirectStream. One of the major reasons was that my server is the superlative Musica Pristina Acappella which not only has a usb, but an I2S output. The I2S output via hdmi cable is a huge up... | |
Music Server The Musica Pristina Acappella server is very easy to set up. It is Roon compatible. I am using a pre-Roon model with Kevin’s software and control app. I have not felt the need to go to Roon. It is very easy to use and has been bug free. Kevin is ... | |

High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz About a month ago I decided to demo a pair of Ultimate Speaker cables and a pair of Ultimate IC's. I purchased a set of CT-1's about a year ago. I thought them to be far better than any cables that I had heard in my 45+ years as an audiophile. I w... | |
