| Which USB Re Clocker He opened your eyes by suggesting you buy a reclocker. If the DAC is decent it can handle noise from a streamer. What about the line noise from the reclocker to the DAC? | |

| Articles You Feel Should be Shared Yes, I've seen some of those as well. Here's a thread from that hated sight ASR on fuses affecting sound. It's not a blind test.https://audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/fuses-do-affect-sound-the-question-is-how-muc... | |
| Dac upgrade Get a $2000 Benchmark DAC3 and a friend over. Have him switch DACs without you knowing which is which. Better yet have a friend of a friend and have him switch without either of you knowing then you can decide with your ears not your eyes if $30,0... | |
