| Looking for DAC/CD player solution I think you should look at a pre-pro. Anthem is a good place to start. Parasound and Outlaw Audio are other options in this space. These products will work with all your equipment and are the most "digital centric."There are integrated amps with b... | |
| Last song on most LP's pressed with compression WOW - who knew LPs were such a flawed medium for recording and playing music. I'm taking my entire record collection to Tower Records and selling it for $10. Oh wait, I did that 25 years ago.Never mind. | |
