| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? And I read that he didn't know a GOOD ENOUGH HIGH CURRENT INTEGRATED that would work as well as the combo. To which I then, and still, doubt. but im done splitting hairs. | |
| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? That's not what Mapman wrote. Read his statement again more carefully.It would be helpful if you would explain your comments more thoroughly. Enlighten me then if you would -- what is high current? | |
| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? THolt,Maybe, but I do not know a good high current integrated for the Gallos that could do as well as the A3CR + pre-amp combo for that price?Mapman, you don't think there's a powerful enough integrated to be had for $2000? I doubt that. At any ra... | |
| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? Or as has been mentioned earlier, sell the DAC and the Mac and buy a ~2k integrated and perhaps the MHDT. | |
| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? Newbee, somehow you got upside down. The OP bought a $2k DAC, not transport. He's comparing the expensive DAC to his cheap Onkyo universal and not finding much difference. | |
| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? Markphd, to comment on your point compared to Newbee's earlier. Newbee nutshelled that the OP's system may not be good enough to hear differences, and/or that the differences are there and he just doesn't/can't appreciate them.You state that the n... | |
| New DAC Not a Dramatic Improvement? Tvad, as always the voice of terse reason and the bottom line. I think he's right, but I'm also in your camp and would scratch my head at the seeming inconsistency of cost/benefit. I ran into a similar experience recently where a recently bought P... | |
| Small CD player anyone have any experiences with the Cal Labs transports? thoughts? | |
| Small CD player i'm interested in this too, potentially. i have limited shelf space. There have been a few musical fidelity x-ray's that have passed through the posted ads. Audio Analogue also makes a small cd player. And Cyrus.Anyone know of good small transport... | |
| Most musical player or DAC? The underground raves refer to the original PS1 model #SCPH-1001 only. Its worth trying for ~$40 or less used, if you can get over the goofiness of it. | |
| rookie drunk move Lrsky, love it. "My name is Tholt, and I'm a Wireaholic". I'm sure everyone's got a story or 10. | |
| Sony Playstation 1 for a CD player ??? Posted this yesterday, still no show. Just wanted to note that there are remote controllers for PS1's. I found one on fleabay for ~$5 | |
| Most musical player or DAC? i think that's more a testament to how good the PS1 actually is in the right system. Differences are there, but as others have found, the PS1 is an odd gem. I'm not married to it -- bought it out of curiosity (and the perversity of it) but I can't... | |
| Most musical player or DAC? I've heard about the MHDT. Did a little research based on another thread here. This may be inching closer to happening. | |
| Most musical player or DAC? You have and I appreciate your input, suggestions and well wishing. |
