| Musical Fidelity M5Si vs Rotel 1592 Integrated I concur on the Musical Fidelity....I have been using the M6Si for two years and think it is a great piece. I can't speak to the internal DAC though as I have used a dedicated DAC. FWIW, I just upgraded to an amp costing several magnitudes more ... | |
| Looking for a DAC < $1500 +1 for Mytek. I have the Manhattan and it is a great sounding piece with super cosmetics. Analog pre-amp is very good as well. | |

| 2016: a new year for music.... Check out Parker Millsap : The Very Last Day. Brilliant in every way. Album of the year for me....by a landslide. Extremely well recorded too. | |
| Your Go to CD to Impress Well, I always reach for The Rite of Spring conducted by Eiji Oue on Reference Recording(RR-70CD). Very dynamic - Powerful - Engaging!+1For someone not familiar with the Rite of Spring it might not mean much, but if you are.....prepare to have yo... | |
| Naim Unitiserve or Antipodes DS? I saw the new Naim Uniti Core server at RMAF.....great looking piece with an excellent user interface and very attractive price. More advanced than either the older Uniti-Serve or HDX and at a fraction of the cost. That said, it is important to ... | |
| "Best" Beethoven 9 Symphonies Recording, Digital Like everything else, peoples taste in Beethoven varies wildly, but I can heartily recommend John Eliot Gardiner's Beethoven. The classical music show on NPR called Performance Today broadcasted a live performance of Gardiner conducting Beethoven... | |

| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Audirvana is quite good....and simple which is worth a lot. There is also an ios app you can use to control Audirvana via a iPad or iPhone. Regarding servers, the Aurenders are supposed to be great, but in terms of value, although they are optimi... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC rinpoche,By all accounts, the Wireworld Platinum cables ricred is using with his Rowland gear are excellent and that should be a solid bet.Don't let anyone turn you off of the Audioquest interconnects though. I use Niagara's which are a recent vi... | |
| Just entered the world of high resolution audio Try the new album "Undercurrent" from Sarah Jarosz. Wonderful musician and great sounding album. It is on sale at ProStudioMasters right now in 96/24. They've labeled it as "country." It isn't so don't let that turn you off. | |
| Just starting with high-res music files Interesting comment about the Bossy track from JD McPherson. I had the same experience from the free download.....thinking "Good grief, this isn't much of a sales pitch for HDTracks!" Coincidently, I somewhat stumbled into seeing him in concert ... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Any feedbacks from Revel/Audio Physic/PMC owners?Give serious consideration to the Revel F208's. Great sounding speaker I think will be hard to beat in that price bracket. Beautiful cabinets as well. Plus, you already have a great amp to drive ... | |
| Poorly Recorded - Chris Thile & Michael Daves Dusty---interesting chain of events. I was just listening to the Thile/Daves recording this afternoon, then saw your post about Antifogmatic, then this. In terms of sound quality, the Thile/Daves album is simply awful. Thile is a bonafide geniu... | |
| Best budget DAC It will be very hard to beat the Parasound Zdac for a budget product. Should be able to get a demo with warranty for around $300 or perhaps less for used. |
