| Sunday dreaming about preamps... Larryi mentioned the Allnic L-3000. I had a used L-3000MkII that I sold for a used L-7000SE that I sold for a new L-8000DHT. There is a significant step up to the L-7000, you can get one used for around $ 7500. It is a really nice product. It ... | |
| How Electricity Actually Works When I don't understand something and my head starts spinning I just remind myself the earth is the center of the universe and not to wander over the edge. Some day we will understand electricity, but today is not that day. | |
| How do you make a final decision on a DAC I had a Terminator and now have the Terminator Plus. I found the best input to be the HDMI and use a Denafrips Iris DDC to change USB to I2S. The Terminator 2 has the clock out to sync the DDC and it is worth it, but even without using the clock... | |
| I am so happy..... Harry says -do you feel lucky punk? and the punk isn't feeling so lucky... and he backs down but then the punk says- I got's to know... and then he was lucky, but not the luck he was looking for Call me a punk- I got's to know - maybe I'll get... | |
| Upgrading from Primaluna My first Allnic pre was a used L3000 MKII and I thought it was great, it cost about the same as your Dialogue new. When I sold it for a used L7000SE I was very happy I did. It was night and day improvement. I recently sold it for a new L8000. ... | |
| Innuos updates What does Roon integrations mean? I gave up on Roon because InnuOS sounded better. | |
| Suggestions for a good I2s cable $300-$400 range? Have used several HDMI between my Iris and Terminator. There is a difference. Using an AQ Thunder 48K now. Had an AQ Coffee and a Sommer cable. The Sommer was better and much less expensive. | |
| Digital Audio Output Differences? Is USB Audio Really The Top-notch? I had a Music Server with I2S and USB out, the USB was better. USB has gremlins and is hard ($$$) to get right. My current Innuos Music server has renowned USB re-clocking but I use a DDC to convert to I2S as it is the preferred input on my Te... | |

| Advice needed on power cables, wall warts, conditioning, electrical outlet Electrical is a deep rabbit hole with many benefits. I would try to replace all wall warts or put them on a seperate ac line. I have many PS audio noise harvesters and they do help. I have a PS P10 powerplant, I have all my digital on it. It l... | |
| Appreciate Some Dac Advice For 2K the trade in W4S DAC2v2DSDSE is a killer deal. I much preferred it to my Yggdrasil. Smoother and more detailed and solid rich low end. Remote and attenuator I sold my W4S for a Denafrips Terminator. I agree with using a DDC with Denafr... | |
| Ethernet cable recommendations @jerrybj I have a Cat 6 filter, several Cat 7 cables and the ne Cat 7u and then ENO. The new Cat7u is very good. I prefer not using the ENO with the Cat7u. It add a sort of artificial airiness with a touch of grit. It was better with the Cat... | |
| Ethernet cable recommendations I use SOtM ethernet cables with filters. Recently added the Cat7u with a special edition set up. Lowers noise floor. | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition I had an Allnic L-4000, dead quiet, holographic, great low end. |
