| Two Type of sound and listener preference are there more? All I know is that years ago, I owned Muse Model 300 monoblocks and Thiel 3.6's; I'd put on a DDD recording by DGG, and I'd have to take if off again 2 minutes later. I want a system that at the least renders most recordings listenable. | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable I just don't get it.

| Classical Music for Aficionados Wow! Try McEwen's symphonic works on Chandos, including Solway symphony. This remarkably recorded CD will really give your system a full work-out. | |
| Transport for Exogal Comet Plus DAC CXC has a totally deficient remote control. Also it clicks wildly with the Schiit DACs. Otherwise it's fine as far as I can see (I own one). | |
| McIntosh MA5200 hum Almost all transformers hum a very little. Many are pretty much inaudible. Some are not. Broadly speaking, transformers in tube amps hum more than in SS (there are exceptions). Most guides will tell you that amp transformer hum is one thing, a... | |
| Transport for Exogal Comet Plus DAC You really need a re-clocker. You really do. Trust me...BTW, I happen to manufacture a re-clocker and will gladly sell you one. As you'll see, I energetically promote them all over this forum. |
