| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? You're going to have a hard time deriving objective generalizations about these two formats in relation to each other, the whole thread is subjective based and will continue down that path. No single person can hear every single permutation of dig... | |
| Joseph Audio: Perspectives and Pearls I've not had Joseph speakers in my setups, but the Pearls were part of a show demonstration he put on, one of best setups ever heard in over thirty years in audio. | |
| If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over............. I'd begin to hate the music I formerly loved, sounds like hell to me. I'd rather listen to sounds of nature out on that island. | |
| When is the golden age of high-end audio? Wow, reviving an old thread here. I've gone to point to point wiring in linestage, both SET amps, and phono pre. So, sort of back to golden age here, but with superior parts available today. For parts like capacitors, resistors, wire, and many oth... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I had Shunyata Anaconda and Python in my system for years, still use a Python VX on lps for NAS. Critical thing in consideration of inputs on dac is quality of rendering in streamer. The quality Amanero usb board in 005 absolutely requires the... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Sorry, that link doesn't work, lets try another, https://stromtank.us/ | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @americanspirit Looks like contender, but what I'm really after is more diy solution. I want all components and parts to be top grade, audiophile grade, batteries alone over $500 for what I've been looking at. We have audiophile grade off the shel... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sirnui I went through a period of auditioning power conditioners a few years ago, Shunyata, PSAudio, Audience, some others forgetting at this point. I settled on transformer based solution, self modified BPT 3.5 Signature. Power amps should g... | |
| Cryogenic Tubes - Time for a Change I've tried cryo'd tubes in the past, not so much for the cryo, rather for claims of hand picked. I've never had an issue, but can't say for sure I heard any difference in sound quality, don't worry about cryo vs no cryo. While I don't run EL34... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm I believe it was Lordmelton who tried the conversion? I also believe I recall him or whoever it was went back to using usb. With recent thread about measurements and how they affect both digital and analog sound quality, ASR measurements... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? I am experiencing the exact opposite of asctim in that as my digital, analog and total system becomes ever more resolving, transparent I become more relaxed as my mind DOESN'T have to work as hard to fill in the blanks. Certainly, one can feel the... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Here you will find discussion of using HQPlayer with Sabre chip dacs, much more can be found at various forums and HQPlayer literature. https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/26718-hqplayer-favorite-settings/page/2/ | |
| What am I missing? @larryi That may be true in some cases, but for artists with larger catalogs there are generally many versions of same recording to choose from. Very rare case when I can't find at least decent sound quality from one of the available versions. I ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I have ability to use a variety of music players and configurations with new streamer. I've tried both Roon and HQPlayer embedded within Roon with up and oversampling, HQPlayer far superior to Roon here. Thus far greatest resolution I've experienc... | |
| What am I missing? For those who feel the need to own the music vs renting/leasing whatever you want to call it. I already own far more physical media than I can play, I derive virtually no value from physical media I no longer play due to new listening preferences,... |
