| Advice on New Integrated Amplifier Zd542 "I'm pretty sure Sim makes the integrated amp portion of your Magnum Dynalab"I bought the MD unheard and that was what I was hoping for. I went from MD-106T + Simaudio Moon i-5 and the sound is very similar but fuller. I attribute that to th... | |
| Recommend half-width transport Pro-ject has the Pro-Ject CD Box RS, but sadly, too expensive at about $1300 new.The Pro-Ject CD Box DS is considerable less expensive (maybe $300US new), and does have a s/pdif coax out.I know nothing about them; I just remembered them when I was... | |
| Advice on New Integrated Amplifier OP says amp needs A&B out. Otherwise I would agree with Akg_ca on the Simaudio recommendation, having run the Arro's with the i-5. I currently run the Arros with a Magnum Dynalab MD-209, and it is far superior, but well out of the OP's price r... | |
| What is the best usb convertor I use a Gustard U12 into my Audio-gd Master 7's BNC input and I am pretty happy with it. I wouldn't mind trying the Empirical Audio Off Ramp as well, but I have a few more things that are higher priority in my audio chain. | |
| Totem Hawk: Outdated compared to newer spks?? Agree with Lowrider57, even my Arro's benefited from a move from a Simaudio Moon i-5 to a Magnum Dynalab MD-209 and the extra power.I listened to the Arro's, Staff, and Hawk side by side and picked the Arro's. Fortunately, the room was about as bi... | |
| Has anyone tried Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 RCA IC? Dave_72Primarily Cardas Golden Reference. | |
| Has anyone tried Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 RCA IC? I had them in my video system, because I didn't really care much about the sound. Then I had to use a pair in a pinch when I rearranged my audio equipment. To cut to the chase, I got rid of all my "high end" cables and switched to the LC-1 through... | |
| Computer grade parts? Computers are the same as audio or any other electronic equipment. You can get good quality parts or bad quality parts. As one who had to recap a few motherboards during the "exploding caps" crisis I know what poor quality in computers is. | |
| oppo 105d straightup I assume we are talking about CD and network music playback. I had the '95 and I found it competent as a CD player and sonically adequate on the network (But DLNA sucks). I did preferred my Squeezebox Touch / DAC setup for network and my old Simau... | |
| Universal Remote for Classe SSP25 Pre/Pro I have a Logitech Harmony One. I don't know if it is still available, but I just checked and it appears the Classe codes are available for download.I assume the Classe has an IR remote, in which case the Logitech would work. It will also "learn" a... | |
| USB A- B Direction No, it does not matter. | |
| Repair or Replace ??? I think you have to divide it into two components, the transport and the DAC. I had the 95, and certainly preferred my Simaudio Moon Nova to the Oppo, but it was close. I now have a combination of a 103 and a Audio-gd Master 7 DAC. I still prefer ... | |
| Is Vinyl Worth It The inconvenience can be a benefit - forcing you to get off you rear end every so often :) | |
| Convert Sony blu-ray player Coaxial to RCA This is jut a cheap DAC. Digital in - Analog out. | |
