| Question on component impedance mismatch Impedance? I think you mean gain. I traded a pre that played around 35 for one that plays around 70. I prefer the latter. That said balanced attenuaters are only useful in an analog application, between the pre and power amps. . | |

| Review : XH-Electron XH-M541 mini amp + JBL Control Monitor Bookshelf Speakers 3.5 outputs are quickly intermittent. Not for me any more. | |
| Weirdly Specific HUM issue @arcticdeth News flash, it’s not the HDMI, it’s the cable. Ground Loop Hum TV/Noise Eliminator https://a.co/d/dcVbGZg. I doubt that any cables will affect ground hum. @mijostyn He did that and traced it to the Freya. Now what say you? | |

| New Project RS2T transport I had a Herbie's Super Black Hole mat that got the stickum eaten off it by my PC. They graciously sent out another one so I glued the naked one to the puck. It mates the disc perfectly. I've had zero issues with the CD Box in 30 months. | |
| DSD Remastering Software Experience And for the ultimate in convenience - SACD rips. | |
| Why limit yourself to one streaming service? I had three services at once. Can only listen to one @ a time and only 10-15% of the time at that. I have plenty of recorded music available besides streaming. I have zer0 need for more than one. And I get the 2¢ too. | |
