Great Rock Bassists your Top 10.Rock not Jazz. But Hey what about Reggae
guess I’m the gullible one here....wishing a man get better who probably didn’t have a stroke. I looked at both "sybil" IDs mentioned and see the house in the background of their audio systems are the same place. As I knew neither "sybil" IDs I th...

PANGEA AUDIO AC 14SE MKII SIGNATURE POWER CABLE OR WHAT?
@facten Yes I understood your suggestion about Audio Art Cables. I agree completely. I appreciate your input as well as that from many others and the options offered. As my 1st power cable change in many years, I thought maybe there were overl... 
PANGEA AUDIO AC 14SE MKII SIGNATURE POWER CABLE OR WHAT?

PANGEA AUDIO AC 14SE MKII SIGNATURE POWER CABLE OR WHAT?

PANGEA AUDIO AC 14SE MKII SIGNATURE POWER CABLE OR WHAT?

How to control volume for DAC with no volume control
A passive preamp is your best bet. I used a DAC with a digital volume control, and it flat out sucked.... IMHO of course. This is a good example of a quality inexpensive passive preamp. It also has 2 outputs to run 2 amps. Luminous Audio Axiom II... 
Good Product or Nonsense?

Good Product or Nonsense?
