A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE Thank you @folkfreak !I am seriously considering the Active SE, but the added cost of HD cables (I need at least four, possibly five) is holding me back.I checked Verastarr webpage, they mention nothing about these cables. Maybe I'll send them an ... | |
Synergistic Research XOT Carbon Crossover Transducers So if my speakers are Bi-Wire (four binding posts on each speaker), do I need two pairs of these? | |
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE What is the difference between the SR Active Grounding Block and the Active SE? Just the power cord?They both appear to be current models. The difference is $1,000. From the pictures on SR website, they look the same to me.Thank you | |
Cary DMS-600, DMS-550, and DMS-500. Anyone bought the DMS-600 yet? | |
How I would measure cables Yes Ethan. I am very familiar with your musings. I have read them in the Internets many times. Good copy / paste job! | |
Newbie questions - Seeking a streamer with the right features - I'm confused! @btanchors : As you have not bought the remote speakers yet, your job is much easier.

streaming DACs around $4k You'll be surprised to know that you CAN find a DSD w/ Bridge II within your budget, or slightly higher!Take a look at Cary DMS-600. I used to have the DMS-500, and it was excellent for the money. Sounds great, and has an awesome display! | |
Qobuz. LOL!! The only 24/96 Tidal has is WITH MQA | |
Qobuz. I know @lalitk I can do the same with my Roon. But to get the second, and the final MQA unfold, you need a MQA DAC. So not completely MQA you are comparing, and not fair | |
Qobuz. I also liked the fact that with Qobuz I no longer need to pursue a MQA compatiable DAC. Hmmm.... and yet you were able to compare MQA vs. Qobuz HiRes | |
Alternatives to Stillpoints Totally agree @yoby | |
