| TotalDAC D1 Driver-anyone using one yet? Sorry, one other thought. I tried to slip one by my wife who is a musician and has a better ear than I. I went dCS Bartok direct to the JC1+s and didn't tell her I did anything, but asked her how the system sounded. She said..."it sounds flat like... | |
| TotalDAC D1 Driver-anyone using one yet? No, but I have a Townsend Allegri passive coming on Tuesday to shoot it out with my ARC REF10. I have too many changes to be as thoughtful as I should be, but I also have a used Vivaldi stack coming which can also go direct. That said the Allegri ... | |
| transistor pre with the sound of tubes Or a hybrid! Rogue RP7 was a great preamp in my system. Just 4 tubes that last a very long time and allowed me to tube roll. In fact, changing just two of the four would influence the sound about 80%. It was my first foray into tubes as I wanted t... | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks You flipped on me! Were you testing me????Absolutely! The Etheregen was a massive positive for my streamer. In reducing sibilance, was way more musical(took away the digital flatness), and enhanced imaging. Way more than the difference between the... | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks I got the Sablon today and only have 3 hours on it. It's got that tizzy new cable thing going, but the imaging is deep and wide, bass is solid, decay very good. I didn't give the Belden a fair burn in as I really liked the musically engaging sound... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! MC mentions that adding pods or Platforms under electronics adds the same type of improvements as the Podiums under speakers. I found this to be true. In my system the speaker Podiums (I'm going to simplify here for sake of brevity) made my speake... | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks I had about 40 hours on the Belden when the ViaBlue came and I haven't been able to take the ViaBlue out. It's really very engaging. I ordered the Sablon today (not a 100 cable test!!!) and due to sending him a bit more money than needed he is sen... | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks I just got the ViaBlue a couple hours ago and I have about 4 hours on it. Didn't like it at all for the first hour, then I agree with most of what you hear. The midrange stands out a very musical compared to the Belden. Bass is much bigger with th... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! Newer to the forum and not possessing the obvious common knowledge that MC is a shill and just makes stuff up, I listened to him about isolation springs and subsequently bought Townsend Podiums for my Wilsons, and Platforms for my dCS, and my ARC ... | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks This is great! I will post what I hear when the Viablue comes in, and am very interested in what you find out with those 4 cables you have. I am still amazed by all the members that insist there is no difference in CAT cables. I also installed an ... | |
| Anyone tried aftermarket fuses in the newish Parasound JC1+s Thanks, so a good path for these big SS amps is the orange fuse first, then 5 ECTs each? Should I open the cases and put them on the locations noted on the SR site, or just on the bottom of the amps as they show this approach too? What glue do you... | |
| What is the actual percentage of people exclusively listening to vinyl vs digital? Like others here I'm in my 60s and got hooked on music when I was under 10 years old. I've been putting systems together since I was 14. My last TT was a LINN LP12, so I was into it. When CDs came out I jumped on board, but it was a rough ride, b... | |
| The Absurdity of it All So insight about the sport of basketball by a person confined to a wheelchair should be disregarded because they can't run or jump? | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks Game on, I just ordered one out of Triton in Seattle. Fun! Thanks for the tip. | |

He was going on and on about politics in the US and was getting to the some of the fans myself included, then a woman yelled out "shut up and play music". It was an emotionally charg... |
