Audiophile recording and playback - Tascam DA-3000 dgarretson,If I use the DA 3000 for playback only (SD Cards, SPDIF Input) 1) Does the Live Clock improve the sound?2) How would I install (which connections to use) the Live Clock to benefit SD card/SPDIF playback?TIAChris | |
Audiophile recording and playback - Tascam DA-3000 Just picked up a used Decware modded version of the DA3000. Jury is still out but I do like what I'm hearing. I like the NOS Dacs, but this unit with upsampling and Decware output stage takes this unit to a completely new level! Steve provides a s... | |
Jena Labs cables simply amazing!! Yep completely agree! Awesome cables! Last stop on the merry-go-round! | |
Pre-amp upgrade time? I second the Shiny Eyes 4P1L tube preamp from Radu Tarta! I had mine made with a custom TKD remote volume pot. Very reasonable in cost and very well made.http://http//www.hificollective.co.uk/potentiometers/tkd-2cp-2511-mc-motorised-potentiometer.... | |
Do you find battery supplies inferior to well designed power supplies? I ave had a number of battery dacs and my transport is run off a battery. IMHO A Dac and amp on a battery is very quiet, but you loose the bloom that a well designed transformer supply can offer. At first it sounds great but after a while you real... | |
These three cables, what would you choose? DH Labs | |
The most transparent speaker cable Jena Labs you get what you pay for! | |
Need recomendation for an IC to fill out and enrich the sound between amp and pre-amp. +1 for the Belden 8402 and 8412 IC's...made them myself and can't believe the improvement in sound quality. http://jeffsplace.me/wordpress/?p=7325 | |
What transport should I get? I have had the pleasure of listening to the Sparkler Audio s303 ($1300.00) as a player and transport to a very highly modified dac. As a transport it sounds fantastic since it runs off a battery power supply. For about $400.00 more the S503 is a w... | |
EAR vs Audio Note preamp Audio Note! I had a very upgraded and modified M3 at one time. Wish I still had it! AN gear makes music not just good sounds. Well worth the investment. | |
Best interconnects used for around $500 +? DNM HFTN IC cables run about $500.00 new and to my ears are very hard to beat at 4x their cost. | |
Toslink cables...do they make a difference? Lifatec are excellent optical cables and reasonable on the wallet.Glasslined is the way to go in optical cables if you are looking at something else. Happy hunting | |
Looking for speakers under 30" tall. Decware DNA horn...great sounding and only 28" high. Plus you can have them custom finished. $1700.00 + shipping.Hope you find what your looking for. | |
Considering buying a CD transport cooper52,For a great cd transport the 47 Labs Flatfish is a good choice. I have mine modified with a super clock and custom battery power supply. I have yet to hear anything better including computer audio. Unfortunately mine is in a box since I l... | |
Improvement in CD player transports Never thought CD players worked well as transports. Bought a 47 Labs Flatfish Transport and had a guy modify it with a super clock, BG caps in the internal power supply, and runs off a custom battery and cap bank power supply. Cost a bit but was w... |
