| Bargain Basement, Giant Killing DACs for PC Audio Cwlondon - it's possible I don't understand the functionality you're looking for but I think the Beresford TC-7520 does exactly that, as does the Nuforce uDAC.Both have USB input and variable analog output controlled by a front panel knob that you... | |
| Bargain Basement, Giant Killing DACs for PC Audio Here's a link to information about the Aune Mini SE. Like Pdspecl, I bought the SE version with upgraded internal parts. The shipping from Hong Kong took about seven days after purchasing on ebay.A consideration for some people might be that the A... | |
| Bargain Basement, Giant Killing DACs for PC Audio I've tried a few inexpensive USB DAC's in my office system, the Nuforce uDAC, the Valab, the Beresford 7520 with the opamp upgrade and now the Aune Mini. The Aune is as good as the Beresford at half the price and way better than the Valab or the N... | |
| Speakers for Leben CS 300XS Any of the Devore Fidelity speakers would be a great match. | |
| Sim Audio I-5.3 vs Anthem 225 vs Creek Destiny 2 I don't have any experience with either that particular Creek or with the Anthem but I've owned three Simaudio 1.5's and I can't recommend that amp highly enough.I bought a black one, traded it for a silver one, sold that one in an irrational fit ... | |
| Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have Cwlondon - Yeah, I'm a skier, too, and as one of my skiing buddies said, there's no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing choices. | |
| Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have When people question why I commute on the bike all winter in Seattle I tell them it's just like getting to ride a Jet Ski to work every day. | |
| Can the Onix SP3 be used with a pre-amplifier? You should be able to connect the output of the preamp with one of the two pair of inputs on the SP3 and then use whatever combination of volume controls on the preamp and the SP3 sounds best. You're putting two gain controls in line with the sign... | |
| Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have Honda ST1100 ABS - made the switch a year and a half ago from a cruiser to this tourer. It's an amazing combination of poise and agility, a very pleasant way to cover lots of miles, either straight or twisty. | |
| Best $3,000 speaker/amp combo? I'd also recommend the Sim Audio Moon i5, with a pair of Devore 8's. | |
| transport tube amp I've shipped tube amps successfully several times and always remove the tubes and pack them separately. I agree with Audioquest4life that original boxes are good to have, because they prevent the amp from moving around inside the box but I would a... | |
| Which purchase tipped you into nirvana. It was really disheartening to see that of those who had actually achieved Nirvana/nirvana it had received only four out of five stars. | |
| Which purchase tipped you into nirvana. -Foster_9, I beg to differ, you can find it here, and it's eligible for free shipping.- | |
| Using Airport Express/AirTunes. Thanks, Kijanki. I've had the same experience of not hearing a difference between the AE compared to several different DVD players used as transports. I have used the AE with several DAC's, including the first version of the Benchmark, and the DAC... | |
| Using Airport Express/AirTunes. My experience with the Airport Express and a DAC has been better than Jax2's. Comparing the output from the AE with the same music played from the original CD using a transport and the same DAC there's very little, if any, audible difference to me... |
