| Review: McCormack DNA-225 Platinum Edition Upgrades Amplifier 4yanx,I've been looking to replace my amp for some time now. Over the years I've followed McCormack; reviews, opinions etc. Today I ordered a DNA225 with the intention of having it upgraded to the Platinum Edition. I look forward to scheduling tim... | |
| McCormack DNA225 w/Platinum Upgrade??? Yes, I read it. Excellent review. | |
| Review: McCormack DNA-225 Platinum Edition Upgrades Amplifier Thanks for the excellent review. I'm using a Classe CA300 now but am considering the DNA225 with Platinum upgrade. If you get a minute could you compare these 2 amps directly? This will give me a firmer idea of the McCormack. I will probably not g... | |
| Do materials alter frequencies and speed? Alright already! Let's let this one die! | |
| Recomendations for simple CD transport I know this might be heresy but I had an Audio Alchemy Pro drive once that was very nice. Never had much respect for the AA stuff but the drive was respectable (IMO). It had a separate power supply and an unusual turntable type transport where the... | |
| Cyndi Lauper & Tom Waits in Phantom of the Opera Hey, I'm ready for it! What's holding them up? | |
| Have U ever bought an LP because of the cover art? I've never purchased an album for the cover art. That being said though, I do appreciate the art on a lot covers. For me it's a plus. | |

| Is a transport/DAC combo better than a CD player The answer to your question is: not necessarily. | |
| Cyndi Lauper & Tom Waits in Phantom of the Opera A good one for April Fool's Day! Although it certainly would be interesting. | |
| Wadia 861 vs. 861 SE I had a 270 converted to a 270se. If I'm not mistaken, the transports are the same in the 861 and 861se. Mechanically, the SE transport is more robust and massive than the standard transport and appears to be of much higher quality. The standard t... | |
| HELP for Tinnitus I don't know whether the bioflavinoids (dietary supplements) will help but just a word of caution, I believe thay can interact with some medications. As far as eardrops probably not. That old ulcer thing, eat bland food and avoid stress blah, blah... | |
| Kimber Select 3033 versus 3035 and 3038 Nighthawk, according to Cable Company all their loaners are fully broken-in to enable customers to start listening immediately. I have auditioned cables from them and enquired about break-in and that was their response. I'm also curious how the Bi... | |
| Any vets among the Audiophiles here? Riggerlt, April is coming up soon. Hope all is well for you there in Kandahar and welcome home next month! |
