| $5K DAC OPTIONS The Rose is more than just a DAC as I'm sure you know. Are you looking for a combo box or just a DAC? The Holo Audio May KTE is very good and also popular. | |
| Looking for a streamer/DAC Rose RS250 if your limit is 5K and are looking for an all in one. | |
| Is this a audioquest cable counterfeit fake? This is one reason I like Triode wire labs cables. Each cable has a serial number. | |
| We Can Make Classic Cars Outperform Today's "SuperCars": Why Not Vintage Audio? Some things on vintage cars can’t be changed such as aerodynamics and built-in technology and safety devices. In my opinion it would never be worth it to spend crazy money to match performance of a modern supercar and in the end, it may be cheaper... | |
| Zavfino ARCADIA MK2 vs FUSION MK2 I have the Fusions but have never compared them to the ARCADIA. | |
| SQ difference XLR vs RCA ? Another factor, some equipment's XLR inputs/outputs are not really truly balanced. The XLR connections were just added for convenience. Unless absolutely necessary I would never use those and would go RCA in that circumstance. This is a question y... | |
| Streamer creates a Wow experience @p05129 Complete nonsense that USB is flawed! It’s quality is very dependent on the implementation. My Holo Audio MAY KTE DAC has Galvanic Isolation on the USB and I will tell you it sounds VERY GOOD! | |

| Your thoughts on selling I don't think this is a good idea. You're assuming MOST people are honest and will do the right thing. If you are willing to take the risks then I say fine, however it's not something I would do. | |
| USBe Perfect Would this benefit a DAC such as a Holo Audio May KTE that already has excellent USB implementation and Galvanic USB isolation when streaming from a PC? | |
| Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life? For me it was Magneplaner Tympani speakers in the late 70's. They were using ARC electronics and I was amazed at the sound. | |
| Best Stereo Upgrade Value This topic just goes to show you there are no absolutes in this hobby! The OP asks a question, and he gets almost entirely different answers from most people! This is why we see so many arguments in the forums. I guess everyone's experiences and e... | |
| Zavfino @gladmo Thanks for this information. I already had Zavfino Fusion XLR interconnects. I decided to buy DH Labs Silver Sonic USB instead of the Zavfino since I couldn't find any reviews. | |
| STREAMING - QOBUZ VS TIDAL AND ROON'S PREFERENCES I stream both Tidal and Qobuz through Roon and honestly despite the Tidal haters it sounds fine! | |
| Which device makes for a better digital music source? Computer or streamer? I personally think the decision on if you should have a dedicated streamer or computer is dependent on what you are looking to do. If you want no fuss and your main concern is just listening to music then by all means a dedicated streamer will mak... |
