| Soulsavers, Mark Lanegan, Gutter Twins spiritualized...you must be somewhere in europe. they never come around here for some reason. gutter twins had a show scheduled but cancelled. the twilight singers do come pretty often as greg dulli grew up nearby. i have some pretty fond memories... | |
| Cowboy Junkies the trinity sessionsa classic must own piece of music for me. | |
| What is the best DAC ever made? i hope the buzz about the berkeley that pubu157 brought up is correct...i've been waiting 4 1/2 weeks for one and it should be here next week! i have read some awfully strong stuff about it from pretty credible sources, not the typical fanboy hype... | |
| Is my DAC up to the task? i think you won't really know till you give it a try, which i highly recommend. i have been listening to the dac in my older theta casanova from a transporter digital out, while i am waiting for delivery of my new dac, and it sounds surprisingly g... | |

| Suggestions for DAC isolation? rja...mine will be here end of this week. i am very anxious to get it! what digital cable/power cable do you use with it? | |
| Suggestions for DAC isolation? if you are using a berkeley alpha dac that is normal. below is a quote from a review in which michael ritter explains..."What Michael told me only solidified my belief that sound quality was the foremost concern of the Berkeley Audio team. He expl... | |
| Power Cables which take the soundstage back with all due respect guys, it is wrong to blanket state anyone should just discount completely experimenting with cords. it is very clear that many have found significant gains from using them (as i have). sharing your experience seems appropriate... | |
| AES/EBU cables for Emm Labs DCC2 SE another thought on my cable comparison posted above...the mit is a dark sounding digital cable while the emotion cable is very light sounding. if your system is in need of some taming, the mit is a good choice, if it needs some lightening up, the ... | |
| AES/EBU cables for Emm Labs DCC2 SE neal that is on my list too but i have not been able to find one on the used market. pricey little thing. it seems you are not alone as i have come across several threads praising the stealth. | |
| Power Cables which take the soundstage back this is a bit off topic from the op's request but it does support your thoughts to explore power cables. it is hard to quantify but i would confidently say that with power cable additions alone, i have increased the quality/performance of my syste... | |
| AES/EBU cables for Emm Labs DCC2 SE i will be following this thread as i am in the process of finding a aes/ebu cable for use between my transporter and berkeley dac.i have been comparing the mit proline digital reference and the kubala-sosna emotion. i have the valhalla coming too.... | |
| Synergistics cables and Wilson Speakers i use mit with my wilsons and feel pretty good with the synergy. i have not found a cable that will provide near the level of imaging that the mit does in my room. it's an old story but it is so much a matter of preference you just will not know u... | |
| Berkeley Alpha DAC vs Theta Gen VIII and stuff... worldcat...i do not have the generation8 but was looking at it as an option before i chose the bada. i would love to hear your thoughts on the comparison when you get yours. thanks for the comments.fsarc...nice to know that you are able to integra... | |
| Mod my B C DAC 3, or just get another DAC? i have been on a search for a dac that satisfies my unreasonable expectations and ordered a berkeley alpha dac last week. i did this based solely on what i have read and the experience of couple of guys i know. this is supposed to be a special pie... |
