| SQ lacking Some things do improve with break in, IMO. Speakers, headphones, pretty much anything mechanical.......even electronics to some degree. Have to agree with shadorne to some extent though. If it sounds bad now, it may......or may not, sound better i... | |
| Better CDP or network player? SpencerThanks for the detailed response..much appreciated. Sound quality is my primary concern, within SANE budgetary constraints. LOL......As you can see, I don't have an "uber system", but it's pretty respectable and I'm quite happy with it. Rec... | |
| Better CDP or network player? Yeah, they have an excellent rep. Haven't read the details for their demise, but I assume it was a corporate thing.......You can still pick pick up the gear, but without support, I'd be wary. | |
| SOTA vs VPI (or stick with my Rega?) Oh yeah, and they're HEAVY.........mine weighs as much as my Bryston 4BST amp, about 45 pounds. | |

| SOTA vs VPI (or stick with my Rega?) I have one of the original SOTA Saphires, bought new in the 80's. It has always been a great machine and still is, IMO. Only problem or upgrade I've ever done was a new power supply and clamp.............No experience with other TT's, never felt t... | |

| Better CDP or network player? djonesThanks, I will take a look at the CA x40-x45.................I'm sure that I COULD solve the puzzle of several devices interconnected and jump through the required hoops to make it work................but really, I'd just rather spend my tim... | |

| Pros and cons of leaving your DAC on 24/7 Now that you mention it, I think I do recall that being mentioned years back in an article, but at the time I didn't pay much attention. When I was still working, career technician, we used to have sheets of the stuff that IC's, etc. came in on...... | |
| Pros and cons of leaving your DAC on 24/7 ElizabethWere you serious about the anti-static foam?.......If so why, never heard of that. | |
| Better CDP or network player? been reading lots of reviews.....my eyes are watering...still can't decide what to do. I could get a great DAC for the money and use the outputs from my CDP.......the 8001 isn't dead yet, just beginning to get flakey...and if it dies, which all th... | |
