Macbook +DAC versus cd player+DAC Running a headless Mojo Mac Mini into a PS Audio Directstream DAC, playing from iTunes through PureMusic. No CD transport at all. (It works well unless my cable provider craps out, as I just recently had happen.)I'd suggest hanging an external dis... | |

Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC From my perspective, I'm not concerned at all with resale value of the Directstream. I don't intend to sell mine, at least not for a long while. | |

USB SQ, what can one expect Interestingly, Cerrot, I recently moved off of an S/PDIF implementation in favor of USB. But, my DAC is different than most, and is considered "input agnostic." | |
USB SQ, what can one expect Cerrot: "I have nothing to defend. Science proves my position. Audio should not be transmitted in packets. pretty simple from where I sit."Not to pick nits, sir, but you DO have something to defend: Your position, which is stated so clearly in the... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I should add that I chose the OWC drive because it is very quiet. Others I've tried, even from OWC, have been unacceptably loud. Be sure to listen for yourself, or check noise ratings or reviews. Some disk fans sound like background static when yo... |
