Do you use the laptop while playing the music(so it wouldn't be able to sit close to the dad when music is playing)? Do you... | |

| How did you choose your equipment? Lawyers, Guns & Money.But seriously...listen, heart skips beat, add gear to list of possibilities. If company seems likely to survive still a candidate. If symbiotic with my other gear, serious consideration. If outperforms others in it's pric... | |

| Schitt Audio Still in business??? You can leave amp off if you want. As long as the input signal from source goes to the Yggy, and the cables are connecting its output to the pre/amp you are fine. You just want a signal going all the way thru the new device. As a side note, don't ... | |
| Schiit Multibits vs Chord Mojo @Lowrider I recall your question being discussed on CA. I haven't heard the Bifrost Multibit (aka Bimby). Cheers,Spencer | |

| RHB Designs Rhumba 1.1 preamp @frozentundra It's easy to change tubes to tailor the sound. Be sure to read up on the flavor that various brands provide. 12au7 tubes are a type that have been offered in many versions, so you should be able to get exactly what you seek. I respec... | |
| RHB Designs Rhumba 1.1 preamp Yes, and I have been very impressed with the Backert Labs preamps, both the Rhumba and the more expensive Rhythm. You are correct, many have had CJ preamps (Audio Research preamps too) upgraded by Bob Backert. Since Bob and Andy Tebbe are members ... | |
| Schiit Multibits vs Chord Mojo Swear I posted on this thread and my reply was removed. I have no idea why, and wonder if mods are deleting posts without notifying poster that it's happened or why. Anybody?I compared Schiit Gungnir Multibit to Chord Hugo in my system and bought ... | |
| Streaming DSD from Linux - Not as hard as I thought! All the info is more easily found on CA site because they have a sponsored board there and respond regularly to questions, etc. Of course, Chris Connaker's review is also on that site:http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/698-sonore-microrendu... |
