| DAC's with volume control question I did a trial of the Cambridge V2 I sent it back because I didn't like the volume control. It jumped in 1db increments instead of .5db it was either to loud or to low and felt clunky. For more money Benchmark DAC3 is good so is the RME ADI 2. | |
| Power Cord Order of importance I would start with the coffee pot. | |
| Takedown of pricey servers, streamers OCD HiFi guy thought that with all I had read about jitter, and clock timing, etc. there might be something to very expensive streaming/servingJitter and clock timing are solved issues and have been for about 10 years.

| Takedown of pricey servers, streamers OCD HiFi guy Your comments are always tinged with a bit of healthy scepticism. Keep following your nose and like many others you might discover that in audio, price in not always a good indicator of product performance especially in digital audio. | |
| Best Ethernet Setup for Streaming Audio Seems a bit convoluted just connect the router to the Aries and plug the drive into it as well. | |
| Best Ethernet Setup for Streaming Audio I think he's talking about fiber media converter. Maybe he has AT&T fiber? | |

| Looking for a ‘’No braine’r Integrated amplifier under 7500 or so NAD M33 is worth a look. Depends how large an office but active speakers save some room. | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? They would happily measure them if anyone wanted to send them or if the company did. They are interesting looking. | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? I see Charney claims 20hz-20khz with no roll off on the top of the line speaker. Some of the others in the 30's to 20khz . I see no measurements on their site to substantiate this. I don't suppose there are any third party measurements anywhere? | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? Build them with Hypex plate amps and use DSP crossovers you won't lose any magic just gain a better speaker. | |
| Please Educate Me One reason could be they don't sound different on the 2 CD players you just think they do. You would need to conduct a proper listening test. Other reason could be the type of DACs and reconstruction filters in the units are different. The CD is ... | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? I've never heard a full range single driver speaker, what's a good example of one for the OP to consider? It would need to produce listenable sound from 20hz to 20khz. Reasonable SPL and low distortion. | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? I tamed wobbly waves down to 30hz with good speakers and Dirac. | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? Look at active 3 way with DSP controlled crossovers. |
