| LAIV Harmony Check out the Schiit SAGA+ remote preamp for only $399 new. It's way better than its price may suggest. | |
| LAIV Harmony Get a Benchmark preamp. | |
| LAIV Harmony So, I'm the guy with the broken Harmony DAC. The input board went bad. I contacted Laiv the next day, and 4 days later a new board arrived by FedEx from China. Installation was smooth except for a tricky ribbon cable that I had not ever seen a con... | |
| Quandary Someday, if possible, try to audition the Benchmark preamp with your system. Not counting the difference in sound, which is still the most important, but only you can tell, the volume adjustment of 1/2 db on the remote will allow you a lot of prec... | |
| Okto DAC 8 Stereo (Shout-out) It comes delivered to your door. | |

| Denafrips Pontus II Clicks Or Static? Are you using the same cable, or different coax cables. Try switching and see if the problem switches. | |
| Schitt Yggdrasil More is Better I guess that's why I liked the Okto better than the MiL. | |
| Schitt Yggdrasil More is Better I think they just renamed the MIL the MIB as it seems to be the same chip. | |
| Remote needed! I've got one, but it doesn't seem to work. It's not the battery as I've already tried that. If you want to borrow it you can. Maybe you can even get it to work. That way you can program it to another remote and we're all good. Let me know if you w... |
