Enhancing online radio station sound options
The Oppo is regarded as a very adept piece of audio equipment by many, so I would have to say - yes, it would improve the sound.I currently enjoy many internet radio stations and find their level of performance quite acceptable - so much better th...

Essence®gZero10 Interconnect cables single ended
Maxima95 - I have tried the 3's, the 6 and the 10's. I currently own the 6's and have the 10's on loan.The 6's are very good indeed. The 10's have a little deeper and wider image with more space around the instruments/voices. The bass is a little ...

Lateboomer - so glad the gZero line worked for you. They may not be for everyone, we all have different tastes, but from what you, Yping and myself have observed, the KLE Innovations gear does seem to excel in our systems.Perhaps you could list yo...

KLEI Absolute®Harmony Phono/RCA Plugs
Yping - I just wanted to mention that the RCA's are a small part of the cable puzzle.Also the gZero cables are more than just a better performing cable...Unfortunately, most people attribute all improvements to the last change they made without co... 
Advice for a usb dac
Take a look at the Schiit Bifrost - they have a nice UBER analogue upgrade that takes it to the next level of performance - when you are ready.Installation of their upgrades is a breeze - simply push into the connector strip and screw in place - i... 
Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed
Sbrownnw - since you are into DIY I was wondering if you are up for an "adventure"?I'm currently running an interconnect with a very different architecture. It's similar "in principle" to the Anticables Interconnect, with a slight twist.For constr... 
Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed
Sbrownnw - my observations with the Harmony line is that they simply enhance the performance of the cables they are attached to without adding "colour".Adding them to my silver IC's actually improved their warmth and fullness.Food for thought - th... 
Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed
Sbrownnw - Yping is suggesting a better RCA, but that really depends on the tone-arm/harness combination...If you are using the standard Rega Arm without any mods - then go for the Silver Harmony or Pure Harmonyif the internal wiring has been upgr...

Yping, on my system the first DVD source I tried the S/PDIF performed to a lower level than my USB. However the second DVD source I tried I could tell no difference between USB or S/PDIF Which is best? -I think it depends on each individual USB im...

UPDATE NOTICE...Yping, just to confirm my thoughts from the last post - I tried a silver/copper DIY hybrid IC that I have - which uses the Silver Harmony RCA's.Once again I could not tell the difference between my cable, the gZero6 and the gZero10... 
Essence®gZero10 Interconnect cables single ended
Yping - just tested the gZero6 and gZero10 on my DVD player's S/PDIF into the dac and I can honestly say I heard no difference whatsoever.This leads me to believe even more that the gZero2 or gZero3 would suffice for digital dutyThey are both extr...
