| whats the very best sounding cables for realistic money Used older replaced models of Cardas, AudioQuest, Kimber, Synergestic Research - and get the lower mid to mid level stuff used and it's still half ok and not expensive. Power cords miss and match as you go and grab a semi ok - sort of decent one h... | |

| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Shadorne - I understand how you feel. I can now see how picking up one of those Denons of yours can make cables become less relevant. I can see how they remove colorations as well. We all learn every day and I guess today is my day to learn. Thank... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? You can never tell the difference in cables if your system or the dealers is crap and not resolving enough. No disrespect but it is what it is. I don’t care what the retail price is - my system with those cables being swapped out would smack the l... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC I have been thinking about picking up a half decent but nothing really expensive unit to spin some disc's and thought to check out SACD spinners if they can be fed into my Bricasti. Because I am not positive about the results I wanted a decent - c... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Guys - is there anyway via any type of work around that makes sense to spin SACD disc's via a disc transport and feed it to my Bricasti to play the SACD materiel? Are any of you PS Audio guys doing this at all? Was wondering if it is possible and ... | |

| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC One thin for sure about the PS Audio Directstream that makes me real jealous as a Bricasti M1 Owner is the transport. The Directstream has that great bridge which is great. Love the sound of my Auralic Aries with Duel Femto clocks with the great S... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Hulk, how do you like the SE upgrade now. I found it gets much better. The new Caps need a while to burn in as well as the new wiring. I am curious as to your thoughts and/or anyone else about the SE upgrade after a couple months of good old burn ... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC This looks awesome - OK so to summarize so I buy the Oppo BDP-103 and this board the Vanity 103HD DoP board and install it myself then just use it as a cd transport? Any cable recommended with this combo to connect this to my Bricasti M1SE? Ca... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Mysticriver awesome info I am reading it now. When I owned DS I found the transport mattered but the one you have is a solid - good one. I would like to try that 103 with the upgrade board. Can I just buy that board and put it in or does it need a... |
