Laufer Teknik Memory Player and Mini
Bob -Thanks for starting this thread. I’m a new Memory Player 64/16 owner.I’m wondering if I am ripping my cd’s correctly into the Memory Player. Whenever I rip using dbPoweramp to JRiver, the album tracks get alphabetized instead of being put in ... 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
Thanks ctsooner. I wish Sam well. It does seem he has a lot on his plate, and that's kind of what I figured. The sound has been so good in my system that I want to keep the Memory Player, despite the bump in the road.I just got the Mojo Mystique d... 
Review of Mojo Audio Mystique V3 DAC
Hey celtic66 -Hope you’re still enjoying your Mystique! I picked mine up personally from Ben last week as I happened to be in New Mexico at the time. Loved chatting with him. I had ordered the demo single ended version, but it wasn’t ready - it wa... 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
By the way, Tidal sounds really good when played through the Memory Player and Roon. You might want to consider saving the headache of ripping your cd collection and just add the albums into your collection using Tidal and Roon. Just a thought to ... 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
mattnshilp and ctsooner -Regarding ripping to WAV:Seems you both have Laufer Teknik Memory Players. Do you guys plan on ripping to WAVE64, or just regular WAV? I have a Memory Player installed with JRiver and I ripped some cd's to WAVE 64, as Sam... 
Review of Mojo Audio Mystique V3 DAC
Wow, talk about great timing. I just bought a Mystique v3 today. You have a nice system. Thanks for your impressions. Enjoy! 
Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go?
I really liked my Supratek Cortese. I sold it to buy an Audio Research LS25 MKii preamp, which turned out to be a step backwards sonically. The Cortese sounded great with the included EH tubes, so tube rolling was not necessary. It also had a very... 
Songs appear in alphabetical order not correct album track order, why?
Here's my update. I switched to Roon and all tracks are in the correct order now. So for my situation, it must have been something about how JRiver was handling my wave64 files that was causing my problem. 
Songs appear in alphabetical order not correct album track order, why?
I am getting the same problem, but with WAVE64 files. It would be great if anyone can help. My twist is that albums appear in correct track order with WAV files. It's just WAVE64 that is a problem.I am using a Laufer Teknik Memory Player and JRiver. 
What responsibility does a seller have to tell a customer an item has been serviced?
I bought a Doshi modified amp here from someone with thousands of posts and perfect feedback.Turns out the amp had been back and forth for repairs more than once just before I bought it, which was not disclosed in the ad. When I got it, it stopped... 
Sweet Vinyl Sugarcube - I Want It!!!
bondmanp -Thanks for the update. It looks like progress is being made, albeit slower than promised. I'm a patient person. In the meanwhile, I'll keep enjoying the most excellent declicker feature. Mine has been trouble free so far. 
High resolution digital is dead. The best DAC's killed it.
wtf -I own the dac that mzkmxcv often brings up and praises. It is good, but it is not perfect. Neither is any other dac that I have owned. As for the Benchmark, it is quite forward sounding. I agree with him that it is very clear, but it does not... 
High resolution digital is dead. The best DAC's killed it.
The Redbook playback is so good high resolution is almost not needed. Agreed. I have owned 5 dacs in the past two years. Two of them upsampled to DSD. With DSD upsampling, I felt the sound was washed out and flat compared to playback using 44.1...

It’s that time of year- 2019 audio wish list
Here is what I am looking forward to in 2019: 1. Optimizing my digital front end. I just bought a Laufer Teknik Memory Player 64/16, to arrive in 2-3 weeks. My wish will be arriving early.  (-:  2. Buying a few more Cerious Graphene Matrix cables,...
