| Audio's Biggest Loser? IPOD Shuffle. Pure and simple. Buy 2, hide one from the robbers, you are set for anywhere in the world. | |
| DAC with a Balance Control - Does on exist? Of course, Benchmark makes a DAC now that has volume and balance, so if you like your Benchmark, that would be my suggestion. Rwwear-- Re why anyone would want a balance control--any small differences in speaker efficiency (between two speakers of... | |
| Do speaker wires degrade over time ? There is a life expectancy for everything, including cables. It may be thousands of years, but eventually they will degrade down to nearly nothing... | |

| Is the moscode 300 the Best $600 used amp? One 300 is better than 4 Moscodes, unless they are the original orignals. IMO | |

There is also a "deluxe" 2-cd version on Impulse that has the original release, an outtake with Pharoh Sanders and a live performance poorly recorded in France.

I certainly have the 1K of electronics and it would make an interesting experiment and the results would contribute ... | |

| DIY DACS I have and not only are they far east, they are far out! In terms of soundstage depth anyway. | |
| Tube preamp with SS amps and Emerald Physics cs2? The DSP, I believe does an A/D conversion of the preamp out, does its DSP thing and then does a D/A conversion back for the power amps. I haven't heard the speakers, but wonder why the A/D D/A doesn't happen before the preamp or why it doesn't jus... | |
