| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Yes, the one thing lacking in this thread is where 005 lies in context to other top tier dacs. At this point, only Holo May Kitsune Edition would be option under $10k for me, this based on comparison reviews up to this point. My perception of ... | |
| Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet Fiber Media Converters, converts ethernet to fiber optical. | |
| Politics and Music @artemus_5 Which only makes my point, good or bad, the rule of man holds as final arbiter for law. | |
| What are we objectivists missing? Audio subjectivists are the furthest thing from being religious, we disagree on so much. While we may believe in our systems and/or choice of equipment, we allow other's those same prerrogatives. If this religion, sure is one incoherent belief sys... | |
| Politics and Music @kb673 Yep, that was an early impression on a young mind, always equated that with the 'rule of man', the rule of law is delusion. Observe the present Supreme Court as they ignore Stare Decisis for evidence of this. If one makes choice to pres... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @branislav I was perhaps the first or one of the first people in North America to purchase 005 two and a half years ago, purchased totally blind without a single review I was aware of. I had previously purchased LKS004 with intention to fully mod... | |
| What are we objectivists missing? What are objectivists missing? Trust in their senses, which may be good thing in that certain individuals have a less developed aural acuity. | |
| Tube interference from router EMI/RFI certainly a problem. I have Trifield Meter, you'd be amazed how much RFI generated by transformers. Shielding and proper placement of components can greatly affect system noise. Some manufacturers take this issue seriously and provide shie... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I’ve heard the DAC in my system, it sounds lovely, pure as a pure thing, no hint of any distortion. This from Rich Trussell of Network Acoustics fame, he sold his MM. | |
| Hot Rats Frank was a very intelligent cat. Some believe his put downs directed at them, could be. In that case they're justified in their disdain for him. I've always gotten the joke, never taking myself too seriously. | |
| Cheapest way to enhance SQ with digital streaming While I hate to say this, as generic FMC can be very nice upgrade, one can still further optimize optical. Generic FMC use pretty lousy clocks and noisy regulators, last FMC in chain injects it's own noise into network, and this, most likely close... | |
| Politics and Music Just off the top of my head, The American Ruse by MC5, really matched my perception of just about everything. I also very much identified with Respect Yourself, Staple Singers, I was very much an outlier in those days, alienated from both the 'sys... | |
| Hot Rats Oh yeah! Saw him three times in George Duke era, always a great show! | |
| Original Cary 300B Monos Reliability? @leahy Hopefully you won't have issues with the Cary monoblocks, While I can't speak to those exact amps, I did run SLM 100 monoblocks back in the day. The Jentzen coupling caps Dennis was using at the time were known to leak, sure that's been add... | |
| Best progressive rock album side @spiritofradio Yes, you did mention Bundles per Soft Machine. Some of the entries I'd not considered as prog rock prior to looking up definition of the genre. Far wider based than I thought based on these various definitions. As for prog r... |
