| Glass Fiber AT&T ST or AES/EBU XLR ? I can't speak to the Theta but I can tell you that I went to 2 Aural Symphonics Optimism v2 cables between a 270SE and 27. The clock signal cable was a real improvement. The music signal, IMO, has become extremely clean and analytical. I would cal... | |

| Wadi internal level adjustment According to my understanding the internal switches adjust the output voltage, the volume control adjusts resolution. If the volume control is at 100% you should have 100% resolution no matter what the output voltage. | |
| Review: McCormack DNA-225 Platinum Edition Upgrades Amplifier 4yanx,I don't think I'll be going that FAR! Right now, the sonics are all I'm concerned about. I will say though, the standard face plate could definitely use a redesign. It's a bit dull and the logo is boring as well. But as long as the amp works... | |
| Review: McCormack DNA-225 Platinum Edition Upgrades Amplifier Well 4yanx,I got the amp but unfortunately because of a backlog, I can't get it modded for 2 months. These mods must be VERY popular! I talked to Steve and got my name on the list though. | |
| Japanese Zep CD's-the sound remains the same Seandtaylor99,I have had about 150 CDs go bad on me. All manufactured by Philips Dupont Optical (PDO) in the UK. Fortunately all but 2 have been replaced with the same titles. The majority were Hyperion classical CDs. Most recent have been Deutsch... | |

| Anybody traded in Pass amps thru AV Logic? If you're talking about the one in Des Moines, IA; I've worked with them in the past with no problems. Haven't done the Pass thing though. They seem to be reputable folks if that's what you're concerned about. | |
| strange sounds on rvg recordings/ or i'm crazy One the most famous for this, although not jazz, was Glenn Gould humming along with Bach. I like the live jazz Cds with the humming and grunting, bystanders gabbing, glasses and icecubes clinking along. Makes you feel like you're there. Wasn't one... | |
| Speaker Wire for a non-anal listener About blind testing, has anyone read about the Pepsi vs. Coke test? When blind tested Pepsi always wins , that is, more people prefer the taste of Pepsi. When the brands are identified to the tester, Coke always wins. I don't know if this can be a... | |
| Need help to find Solid State Amp for Dunlavy SCIV I agree with the post above about getting IVAs. I owned the original IVs and while they are good speakers, the IVAs are better in every way. In fact I was surprised at the difference between these two speakers. The IVAs have a overall coherency th... | |
| Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp Excellent, well thought out and well written review! | |

| Speaker Wire for a non-anal listener If you are truly "non-anal" then you shouldn't care what the cable "sounds" like. At least that's what my proctologist says! | |
| Hearsay, Rumor, Myth or Fact? I have many Japanese CDs including Blue Note. CDs in Japan cost in the area of US$18-$25 each, so although you're paying a premium in US terms you're actually paying the standard Japanese price. I have, however, seen mini-LP japanese CDs selling f... |
