Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack
I’ve got older Core and Zoethecus racks in the main system and am extremely pleased with their engineering and performance. It does look like the price of Core has skyrocketed since I purchased my rack, and Zoethecus is out of business. But, in a ... 
Has the ASR review/hatchet job on the Musetec MH-DA005 Changed Anyone's Mind?
The DAC is incredible.  I've been starting to think about an aurender N200 to replace my A10 but my DAC isn't going anywhere.  
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
I’m using an lks 100 and lks power supply between my aurender a10 and my 005 using i2s output. I find it provides a slighter sense of ease to the music than usb.   I just tried straight usb again—not 5 minutes ago— and went back to the lks ddc.   ... 
Mesh network versus a simple Wi-Fi extender
I have a pretty big house and use an asus ax 6600 mesh network for my main system.  The system is on the opposite side of the house from the router.  (I have the second system hard wired into my router, which also supplies signal to our computers ... 
My experience with the First Watt F7
Sorry you didn't bond with the F7.  I bought a SIT-3 several months back.  Its wonderful.  My Joule Electra VZN-80 and Pass X 150-8 are sitting idle since receiving the SIT-3.  It mates beautifully with my Joule LA-300ME and quintessence prototype...

I'm also in the silver camp.  All my signal cables are siltech.  My ethernet are AQ vodka and cinnamon, and my usb is cardas clear.   
Power Cord suggestion(s) for Rogue Cronus Magnum III
I'd try an aliexpress odin 2 facsimile, $80-100 and a product that performs superbly.  
Basic switch....should I upgrade?
Thanks Kray that is what I was planning to try and I appreciate the confirmation.  
Basic switch....should I upgrade?
I have a cisco 2960G but haven't tried to put it into the system yet.  The Cisco setup instructions are a foreign language to me.  How do you set one up?  Can somebody provide guidance?   Thanks, and happy 4th weekend!

dbb, interesting.  Perhaps try a usb cable.

dbb, I was in about the same place a week ago.  Try RJ45.  Its better with the LKS DDC and am improvement on straight usb in my system.  
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
I just tried my LKS 100 through RJ45 using my audioquest diamond.  Melton is right, it is better than HDMI.  The sparkle and detail I had with the sonore ultradigital is back, but with the relaxed presentation of the LKS 100 through HDMI.  I'm hap... 
MM or MC cartridge for Mm input on Preamp
I have a steelhead and have always run my LOMC cartridges through the MM input.  I currently run a benz ebony lps MR.  I have always felt that the MM input sounds better.    
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
I received my lks 100 a week or so ago.  Recall, I previously tried a singxer su-6, which I didn't like and returned and a sonora ultradigital, which I liked very much but also returned on the hope the lks would better it.  Preliminary conclusions... 
Aurender Dac upgrade
Streaming is cool, amazing what is at your fingertips.   I bought an Aurender A10 as my one box solution for my first foray into streaming.  Little did I know that I would soon step into deeper water and acquire additional digital technology.   ...
