Not a song, but a very thoughtful interview with Marcus Miller on his work with Miles:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOf4qBxjlJU 
dcs bartok vs DENAFRIPS TERMINATOR-PLUS
No conclusion but I would think that British built in Cambridge is better than Chinese built sold in Singapore.  That sound like pure, unadulterated bias. I have no opinion on the differences between the two DACs, but anyone who has owned a Denafr... 
Regarding Quoting someone on the forums
Could it be that when the "someone mentions me" box in un-checked in the "notification" page of a profile, it automatically disables the @ function for other members? 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?

@simao Miller has played with a long list of stars, but I’m not sure about Sting.As for Cassandra Wilson, obviously she has been around for quite a while, but is very eclectic, and some of her work crosses over for sure.Since we don’t have another...

Yes @ggoggin – agreed! And I enjoy them as well.@simao That's the combination that appeals to me most naturally. I grew up on soul and funk, and still gravitate in those directions.Along those lines, while I don't want to stray too far from the su...

FWIW, you can watch the responses to this post to see who takes it seriously, who rebukes it, and who makes fun of it. That’s a big clue as to who to be on guard against and/or who to ignore or take with a grain of salt (or shot of vodka).Precisely. 
Integrated amp recommendations for harbeth 30.2 XD
Sorry! No, I have used both through my relatively new Denafrips Pontus II DAC. So in that sense, the comparison is fair, as I was bypassing the Hegel DAC.This is my first stand-alone DAC, and it has spurred the temptation to upgrade other componen...

the hegel h160 while a ’last gen’ piece at this point, would, imo, set a very high bar to beat in driving harbeths (it is last gen primarily in the dac section only, the amp section is still absolutely top notch)Thanks for that, and I do agree tha...
