| audiophilleo 2 @ Mordante, no, I didn't - I bought a musical fidelity Vlink192 and got off the merry go round. Sorry! I decided I didn't want to spend that kind of dough on a converter. I'm pretty happy with my system where it is. I've spent plenty on the front ... | |
| need help with outdoor system Considering the price point, I think wireless speakers are out, i think wired speakers would sound better for the same money. I'm starting to get used to the idea of wired speakers run off of my Denon avr's second zone. There is a penetration next... | |
| need help with outdoor system Thanks guys, and to clarify, I am not expecting to get audiophile quality sound on my outdoor deck, I don't think that would be realistic considering my budget for this, which has not been established yet but is probably under $1000. What I really... | |
| Dac Questions from an Analogue guy : I go to RMAF every year, and have heard some truly incredible digital-based systems there. A $7000 DAC is not a price range that I will ever be in, but happy listening to those that are! | |
| Dac Questions from an Analogue guy : Vinylmad814, I have a computer based front end, and have done extensive research in the areas of redbook CD playback and upsampling. The CDs you gave your friend can all be ripped to FLAC, or WAV, or AIF, all of these are lossless formats. WAV and... | |
| Dac Questions from an Analogue guy : DVD Audio is a different format, similar to SACD I think. 24/96 and 24/192 are high resolution methods of recording music. You must use a laptop or computer to pipe 24/96 or 24/192 music tracks into your DAC, but to play DVD-A or SACD discs, and t... | |
| CD vs FLAC FLAC is a lossless format, the digital track on your CD is also a lossless format. FLAC can be compressed, but similar to the Apple Lossless format, the track uncompresses at playback time. The difference in audio quality is in the head unit that ... | |

| Parasound C/BD 2000 Belt Drive CD Transport Skiroe, the 1.5m recommendation is a minimum length to avoid possible jitter that the cable itself can add to the signal if it is shorter than 1.5m, there have been many posts and white papers written on this subject, if you do some searches in th... | |
| Wharfdale Diamond - Pleb Audiophile speaker? I've auditioned the warfedale diamond 10 series myself at a dealer here in denver and I was also very dissappointed. they look nice, but the sound leaves much to be desired. I immediately started listening to the offerings by quad, which were in t... | |
| iTunes Jplay In my experience, the only advantage to going with Jriver has been operability. I haven't used iTunes with Jplay in a while, cannot remember if the time slider worked, if you could scrub it back and forth to get to a different part of the song, if... | |
| Is the CD and DVD/Bluray going away? shiny discs aren't going anywhere. Their demise is much exaggerated. | |
| Budget DAC vs Budget CD Player? Just because a DAC has asynchronous USB, does not mean the USB interface is well designed. The best DAC designer is not necessarily a great USB engineer, these are different skill sets. Smilar to a DAC, There are also many different levels of qual... | |
| Higher End USB Cables Shameless thread tag. I am interested in Reverendo's results. I am on the verge of a USB cable upgrade myself. | |
| Budget DAC vs Budget CD Player? The DAC route also allows an upgrade path via USB converter, a la Musical Fidelity Vlink 192, JKSPDIF MK3, Audiophilleo, Anedio, Empirical Audio, many others. Using a USB converter to re-clock the signal offers significant upgrades in sound vs. th... |
