| Amy Winehouse.RIP Boy, the effect of Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes is clearly seen in this thread, isn't it. (That's a social comment)Can you imagine what would happen to your music collection if you took out every performance, every composition where at least som... | |
| Hi- Res download newbie Oh man. I cannot BELIEVE these PS audio clowns.It's bad enough that they will smoke and mirror their way through the obvious fact that digital volume control distorts sound quality, but in addition, they will not bother with flac?Trust me, my dear... | |
| true confession Blowing a tube for a newbie, now THERE is a proper introduction to using tube gear.I have a nice tube amp in my closet, hardly ever gets played now as I like my other amp better. Can't sell it, but I could give it away as a "here is great sound yo... | |

| Need help picking a Headphone amp. Van Alstine has a very nice headphone amp included in his preamps. You can save some $$ and get one of the solid-state models, since the headphone amp stage is SS (even in his tube models). Then you'd have a great preamp as well. In the end you ar... | |
| Interconnects: solid or hollow core wire? A good compromise is bubble core. Electrons love a good bubble bath. | |
| Need DAC suggestion I have a great DAC to recommend but it's not a USBish device so I will not mention it.However, I would strongly recommend against depending too much on USB, because you will in turn be depending a bit too much on how your computer handles that sit... | |
| Van Alstine Insight+ integrated sound character? Really? It sounded to you like a Sansui? Fascinating. | |
