Transparent Audio Digital Coax Cable
I have transparent speaker cables, Power cords and interconnects, very good. I don’t understand coaxial cables versus RCA. Maybe I did a while back. Don’t buy the low end range of transparent cables you’ll be happier with the midranges, ie. Ultr... 
TV audio into DAC via eARC or better
My HDMI extends from my Apple TV 4K to a Nad m17 processor, and then I have RCA interconnects from the processor to a Conrad Johnson gat2 preamplifier which is connected to amplifiers. Of course everything flowing through Xfinity is subpar. But a... 
Looking for an Amp Replacement
If you like the amplifier I would fix it and maybe other potential vulnerabilities while the patient is on the table. Matching other amplifiers may not workout. And your current amplifier may even perform lot better after a makeover. If you like...

So many YouTube clips to evaluate sound quality. Why???
Jays YouTube site seems to be most prolific with sound clip vids on speaker that cost like $400,000. Absurd someone spends this much money on speakers.  My guess these things are on loan since he's got new speakers every other week.  To keep the ... 
So many YouTube clips to evaluate sound quality. Why???
Another factor is the quality of the recording itself. Really good recording quality songs sounds great on any system. The audio Youtubers have minimal views anyway.  It's kind of impressive they spend so much time doing these videos and yet they... 
Hybrid amplifiers Ss/tube, any good?
What about the mcintosh mc901 hybrid amplifier. It's a true hybrid with a separate tube amp and a separate solid-state amp in one chassis, what's two section connecting a signal to only the upper range drivers, add solid state to the bass drivers....

Getting rid of reverbs kind of important. It's not rocket science  
DSP dirac test error ‘low signal to noise level’
Why does dirac Interface suck so badly?? And then all the signal noise Errors which they don't even provide any guidance on. They don't have any phone support despite people paying money to them. Seems like an awful service
