Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
Mattnshilp, I used to greatly favor Firewire as the best connection and even had a FW to SP Dif converter. Then Apple who owns Firewire totally pulled the rug out from under it and third parties that made converters. I also used to greatly dislike...

Jmcgrogan2, I think Calvinj means without the HFCables of all sorts that he has. I took only one HFC URR pc and the full loom of HFC UR ics and speaker wires with me to New Mexico. Now that I'm back to my big system, I realize how important other ... 
Is computer audio a bust?
JoecaseyJoecasey, I agree but it does suggest that the longer time means that errors are more common, that Essence of Music reduces them. It probably does not mean much in ripping, but the ripping with the treatment sounds noticeably better, and I... 
Hall of Fame: BIGGEST BADDEST Monster Amps
Only three are notable, the Phase Linear 700, the Ampzilla, and the Sanders Magtech.

My music server comes with a TEAC optical drive with Linux program for ripping with many checks for errors. I have found that ripping is much faster when the cds are treated with the Essence of Music cd treatment and clearly sound better also.

Ddraudt, like you I first heard the URR. You were there, I think, when I put the Ultimate in. I would tell them to buy the two URRs. Put one on the ac filter and one on the stereo amp. My problem is having mono blocks. I'm to get a new music serve...

Tortilladc, I agree with you that a $200 chromebook would sound as good as a $2000 game rig. Both would be little better than MP3.I am not interested in such noise. 
H-CAT DAC
Guys, I can now get in contact with Roger Paul, and he promises to get his webpage up to date with contact numbers. He will do repairs if needed. It is unlikely that he will restart making his units.

Charles1dad, while I like avoiding Op amps and his other emphases, I need the Sabre chip for my music server and it double DSD. Thanks for the information.

Jafant, If you fly through Bush International, you can both fly to College Station or drive up in less than an hour.

Charles1dad, I just read the 6Moons review. Wow! I didn't have time to note what chip is in it, but I would love to hear it. 
Why are there no high end cheater plugs?
Almarg, as I've said before my city's electrical department seemed indifferent to removing the grounds. Their only concern was easily allowing the firemen to cut the house grounding to the grounding rod. They did not like the idea of welding the h...

Jafant, be more specific! Where are you? Texas has many of us with the cables, etc. I'm back in College Station and would be happy to have you come by other than when the RMAF is on. 
Is DSD download already an extinct format?
Phasecorrect, the hybrid layer on most SACDs in DSD on a music server are far superior to those played a universal player. It is all the crap that SONY added to the DSD.
