| The best part about MQA bankruptcy.. Tidal vs Qobuz on my system: Qobuz🏅 | |
| Dark Horse DAC The Doge 7 MKII is going away. Remaining units on the Doge site is on sale and when they're gone they're gone. | |
| Dark Horse DAC @nniss Thanks for your candid impressions. My Doge MKII (I think) is getting close to being broken in. While changing things around in my system I also added 10 Synergistic Research HFTs and settled in last night to some interesting Electronica a... | |
| Dark Horse DAC I've read good things about the RME DAC. I think all the flexibility is interesting and enjoyable to some and to others it might be seen as unnecessary complexity. For myself I like to make the best choice I can afford and then keep it simple from... | |
| Dark Horse DAC Maybe old news for some, but perhaps not so much for others. Also, the current version is a MKII. Can't comment on the direct to amp performance, but the 2.6V going to the preamp through the RCA connections is higher than any other DAC that I know... | |
| Dark Horse DAC Came close to buying the Gustard R 26 Discrete DAC. My hearing seems to be ultra-sensitive to brightness/glare and I didn't want to take the chance. Your Doge must sound amazing with the NOS tubes. I will probably try that at some point. Let me... | |
| what are your top "audio bargins" in your system history? All the Dunlavy speakers through the years and most recently the Doge Dac 7 Mk II. This DAC is nowhere close to broken in but is already the best I've ever heard. | |

| Everything matter in the audio chain. Tests prove it! I have used the Blu-ray version of Avatar as a reference disc to test the would-be improvements to the video side of our home theater. One of the scenes is when the helicopter is making a landing at a remote location. The grass is being blown and ... | |
| Everything matter in the audio chain. Tests prove it! If you have a high-end projector in your stereo/video room, try an audiophile power cable. I recently experimented with a SOTA power cable from Audio Magic replacing the stock cable and the improvement in picture quality was dramatic. I guess ever... | |
| Shave your CDs Don't knock it until you've given it a fair chance👆 | |
| OK...here's another tweak that really works @ holmz We may have to agree to disagree on some points. I know there is always a psychological element at work, but if you have been around a lot of live acoustic music, played an acoustic instrument or been in the hobby for an extended period o... | |
| OK...here's another tweak that really works There are those who can not accept a product unless it makes perfect technical sense. I respect that, but experientially if it works, then why not enjoy the ride instead letting the lack of logic be a barrier. I personally like to know how a thing... | |
| OK...here's another tweak that really works Thanks guys. I probably should have said that I use the Ayre Disc regularly and that what I'm experiencing with the Mathew Bond Disc is a different kind of improvement. Also, even though I still play CDs, I'm more focused now on streaming using ... | |
| Class D Amplification Announcement Jeff Rowland perfected Class D years ago. Amplification is just a technology, not bad or good. It's what you do with it that counts. |
