| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio To address some of the concerns raised by Audio Doctor NJ:1) As a professional reviewer I do get the industry peak at buying at a reduced price the piece of equipment I have evaluated. However, for you to imply that I'm "on the take" or am behold... | |
| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio Hi mrdon,I never comment on things I'm ignorant about. I have never heard your Prism Sound Callia DAC. If your totally satisfied with what it does for your system, then by all means enjoy it.I have no idea what other DACs you have heard/audition... | |
| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio Hi agriculturist,As I stated in my review the Lab 12 DAC1 SE completely out performed my Concert Fidelity-040 hybrid DAC, my reference for over five years, across all sonic parameters. If you loved the sound of the Concert Fidelity, you would be v... | |
| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio Hey rbstehno,My oh my, ignorance has no boundaries in this fun hobby of high-end audio.1) This NOS Phillips DAC chip is extremely held in high esteem by many listeners/designers because if used in the right way it offers an analog perspective rega... | |
| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio Hey k4star,I have no idea were you came up with the assumption that non-oversampling/upsampling DACS have a 3dB loss at 20khz. The Lab 12 DAC1 SE had an extended/airy/ detailed top end in the three systems it was tested in. | |
| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio Hey k4rstar,You crack me up! There is no high frequency "roll-off", so the way you asked the question is based on a false and misleading assumption. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey evolvist,Thanks for the positive comment about my review. Regarding your opinion about having tubes in the analog stage of a DAC has been somewhat of a negative, that has not been my experience. I have had three DACS (Concert Fidelity, Line ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Guys,My review on the Lab12 DAC1 SE has just gone up on hometheaterreview.com. The reason I'm sharing this on this thread is because when using this DAC to drive either the Ulf's or the DI monitors the result is superlative /beautiful music! ... | |
| The new magnificent Linear Tube Audio MicroZOTL Preamplifier Hey cmach,I have used the MicroZOTL preamp with many SS amps, including Pass Labs, and tube based amps and it drives all them with beautiful results in both my systems. | |
| The new magnificent Linear Tube Audio MicroZOTL Preamplifier Hey israeljones,Congrats! You are in for a treat, indeed. What source and amplifier are you going to team it up with? | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey Guys,Just wanted to share that for the last 48 hours, did not sleep last night, I have been listening to the new Linear Tube Audio full featured, full size chassis, significant internal upgrades/modification to the ZOTL circuit preamplifier. ... | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money Hi Wig,Honestly, I'm not sure what the jitter level is for either transport. I'm assuming it's low for both transports. I do no measuring for my reviews, but base my conclusions on extensive listening of the review piece with a comparison to oth... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Hey David,Thanks for putting up the review on Aric's new amplifier. He really builds beautiful sounding gear at such reasonable prices. This amplifier sounded great with the Tekton speakers. | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money Hi audiolabyrinth,Thanks for calling me a gentleman and respecting me. However, your statement that for me to say, based on actual listening experience, that it is "silly" that a transport that just delivers standard Red book cannot sound better ... |
