| Delta Sigma DACs So in short:it's all about implementation. | |
| Audioquest Niagara 5000 or 7000 1000 is definitely "assembled in Taiwan". | |
| where best to spend $2-3000 upgrade dollars in my system Depending on what it is that you want to achieve (just "overall better"?), I'd say the speakers. | |
| 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). | |
