Logitech Transporter + Berkeley Audio Alpha DAC 2
I didn't like the Transporter as a transport to another DAC. I tried a couple DAC's with it, and the Transporter made them all sound like the analog outs of the Transporter. Mine was modded by Modwright when I had it at the time. 
Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac?
Has any other tried out different power cords with the 777? What is everyone using? 
The best digital IC, period.
My problem with HiDiamond is that there aren't any dealers (in my area at least?) that are willing to home demo them. And we all now how important demos are... I asked the distributor if there are any dealers in the US that are welling to home dem... 
Ted Denney, and Synergistic Research's Powercell
Why would Ted say that the Powercell MKIII would not be as of good match for your system as the MKII when SR advertises MKIII as a significant improvement over the MKII? It sounds a little fishy....as if he was just trying to make a sale of the MK... 
Lampizator DAC
I had a MW Transporter and i found it was just Ok as a transport to another DAC and not that great. I thought that the Mw as a transport made any dac sound very similar to the analog outs of the MW. But when I tried the same DAC with a better tran... 
Stillpoints Ultra SS vs spikes on concrete
Ozzy, did the Decoupling Gliders make any audible improvements? 
California Audio Show- a great time
My favorite rooms were Audio Note and MBL.There a couple rooms which I thought had a lot potential but hindered themselves greatly with amps that weren't up to the level of the speakers. 
Can any preamps for $2-3k touch Auregies-L?
a used TRL Dude should be in the higher end of that price range and i found it better than the Auregies-L. 
Tube Research Labs Latest Dude Preamp
I just got the Dude and it's the SE version. 
Tube Research Labs Latest Dude Preamp
Ah ok thanks. It sound so good as is, I'll leave well enough alone!Btw, I was able to compare the Dude directly with the Shindo Arieges-L. Granted, the Dude is more expensive than the Shindo...but it didn't take much to determine the winner in my ... 
Tube Research Labs Latest Dude Preamp
Has any one tried rolling the power supply tubes (6080, OD3, and 6SN7) in the Dude? Can you comment on it? Also, there appears to be a potentiometer next to these tubes, what is it for? 
Cables for high efficiency speakers?
I'd also recommend Clear Days. I preferred the single runs with my high efficiency speakers. YMMMV though, so try as much as you can. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Has any one tried a Galileo MPC with the PowerCell? Can you comment on the improvements heard over the standard MPC? 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
any news on when the new AC cables will be released? 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
It was an authorized dealer. I'm sure a few of you have dealt with him out of WA. I know what the issue was between them, but I don't think we should discuss that. I've talked to Eliot (twice) about this, and the only 'help' he offered was for me ...
