| System assessment... I have Fidelium speaker cables, but I have no experience with your other components. The Fidelium added detail to my system, but not shrillness. Sibilance, etc drives me nuts. I’ve had success changing things by varying cables and vacuum tubes. W... | |
| Phono preamp or SUT for low output moving coil @viridian Thank you for the information. Good to know. | |
| Phono preamp or SUT for low output moving coil @viridian Thanks for pointing that out. Do you have any idea what would be considered low impedance? Sutherland's website doesn't give a range. I'm using a Hana ML cartridge and it works well. I checked with Ron Sutherland before I bought the TZ... | |

| XLR for subs The cable supplied by REL is a high level (speaker) cable with a Speakon connector. The sub has an XLR input for the LFE input. How are you connecting the subs? If you're using speaker level connectors, Analysis Plus makes a cable in shorter len... | |
| Enough is Enough When you find a new dac, be sure to call that dealer and let him know what you bought. :) | |
| REL S510 or S812 In the S series, I'd say you would want the 812 given your requirements. Two are better than one for two channel, but that gets kinda pricey. My SVS sub is a PB12-nsd. It's only a 12 inch, but it's pretty big. It will shake the house. It's port... | |
| REL S510 or S812 Is your SVS 3000 a sealed enclosure or ported? I have two S/510. They have more than enough output for accurate music reproduction, but they aren't quite enough for loud explosions, etc for home theatre. I use a third SVS 12" ported sub for t... | |
| Best subwoofer to pair with Vandersteen Treo CTs?? I haven't heard all of the various options out on the market, but I get excellent results from a stereo pair of REL S/510 subs. My speakers are rated down to 28hz. Integration was pretty straight forward. They sit just outside the two front mains... | |
| Gustard A26 Below is a link to a forum post that asked the same question. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/comparisons-gustard-a26-vs-r26-discrete-dac.968200/ I don’t consider Gustard to be poor quality junk. Nor do a lot of other happy owners. There h... | |
| Should I add a DDC? @pbecker128 That's good to know. Thanks for the info. | |
| Should I add a DDC? @kingbr My DH Labs cable is an older 2.0b and it works fine. The Wyred for Sound cable doesn't even say what it is, but it's supposedly optimized for I2S. I'm sure you'll be able to get the ddc to work with the dac. There's surely plenty of peop... | |
| Should I add a DDC? @kingbr The connection between my ddc and dac is very simple because they are both Gustard and they have the same pinout. My dac will work with other I2s pinout connections, but I didn't have to figure out which one. Since you're going Denefrips... | |
| Should I add a DDC? @kingbr I'm able to keep my ddc very close to my dac, so I can get by with 0.5M. I just got an I2s cable made by Wyred 4 Sound. In 0.5M, it was half price for $99. I'm using it just now for the first time. I'm very impressed. Their 2M length is ... |
