| Anyone with an Oppo 80? Thoughts? I think it is fantastic! I bought it because I use the HDMI out into my processor for all movie surround formats (and it handles everything) and for SACD/DVD-A. I don't use the RCA audio outputs for CDs in stereo but instead use the digital out to... | |
| PayPal Alternative? - What's your opinion? Timrhu,That's a great idea. In fact, all of you can send me your bank routing and account numbers and I can test the security of your banking systems! | |
| PayPal Alternative? - What's your opinion? I would never send my bank info to anyone, even Paypal verification makes me nervous. There's got to be a better way. | |
| Need DAC help My fault for not reading your post correctly. The PSA is not tubed, but it does sound like tubed DACs I have heard. | |
| Review: Wyred 4 Sound DAC-1 DA converter Thanks to all for your posts. I am seriously considering this unit as an upgrade from my PS Audio DLIII. Are there any limitations or disappointments with the W4S DACs? Thanks for your review. | |
| How far do you sit from your speakers As always, Elizabeth, you made me laugh! "I am the "W"! And, a great detailed description. Any pictures of the room?The angles seem narrow with 100" to the speakers and 59" between the speakers. Is that characteristic of the 3.6? Is 42" closer tha... | |
| Need DAC help You have a very nice start with the Totem and Plinius. I have been using a PS Audio Digital Link III and am a big fan. It has a smooth and realistic presentation with good full range extension and tames the digital glare. The mods are even better ... | |

When I use the Onkyo for movies and SACD, it works fine and is affordable and reliable. I listen mostly to music, s... | |

| Best Dac with USB input for $1,000 or less PS Audio DLIII is fantastic. Not overly detailed. It has a soul and presents the music as real, not digital. It has USB, optical and coaxial inputs, all of which are very good. | |
| Home Depot speaker cable, which one to buy As long as you get as pure a copper cable as possible and the largest gauge you can handle, there will be little difference. I have tried several lawn and garden extension cords and didn't like them. They sounded weak and muddied. If you are going... | |
| Van Alstine? There are very few recent posts concerning AVA so any additional information would be appreciated. There is also the Odyssey Audio Stratos and I am leaning towards these companies because they are designed and manufactured in the USA. If the quali... | |
| Van Alstine? Tonyptony,Very insightful. Thank you. | |
| Van Alstine? Sorry. Misspelled the search. Found em. | |
| Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix I would appreciate a listing of musical instrument museums that people have been to and enjoyed. I was privileged to see one in Florence several years ago. I stumbled into it. Museum of Musical Instruments. If you ever find yourself there, don't m... |
