@sns  When I was considering the Pangea USB cable, I called Benchmark to inquire if their DAC3B needed the 5v signal over USB. They assured me that it did. They are working on a new design that does not, but it is not on the market yet. Therefore ...

Jean Sibelius Recordings
I just finished listening to the symphonies yesterday with Rattle and Berlin. The sound on Qobuz is excellent. I enjoyed how the details were illuminated by the incandescent soloists of that great orchestra. Rattle achieves beautiful balances and ...

Mahler on vinyl - your favorite
DG 2707 056 : Symphony 5 and Songs of the Wayfarer (2 LP set) I recently listened to this album and found the symphony lacking in refinement. Here are some more suggestions from my LP list : Das Klagende Lied, Boulez, London Sym (same discs as ...
