| Looking for a preamp with XLR connections Whoops said it twice. I must be right. | |
| Do older power cables still hold up to newer ones? What I've noticed, and I've been in this hobby for more than 1/2 century too, is that the improvements are typically in their new best cables. Then many times their old best cables just move down a notch or two in the product line sometimes with ... | |
| Class D for Repatriated Merlin TSM MMI Ralph to the rescue again:-) Very informative. Thanks. | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @ Stevebohnii: Well I bet if you tried the Clear Beyond PC you didn't take it off. I borrowed a CB PC from another component in another one of my systems to try on my Pontus. Lets just say I'm looking for another PC now to use on the component ... | |
| Looking for a preamp with XLR connections Based on what I have owned and your stated requirements, and if your budget is truly in the $10k range, Pass is hard to beat. Now if you would consider tubes, which you should IMO, then its entirely a different story. The Freya is a great value.... | |

| Class D for Repatriated Merlin TSM MMI Haven't heard them myself, but I've been told from a very reliable source that the new Atma-Sphere Class D amps sound like their OTL tube amps. I have 2 pairs of TSM's myself and use AS on one of them. If in fact their Class D amps do sound like... | |
| Streamer Upgrade Wow very honest and refreshing post. Thank you. | |
| Power cords can make a tremendous difference in Digital Couldn't agree more. But I think it safe to say that PC's make a tremendous difference period. | |
| conrad johnson CAV45, CA200,... "So I should expect something like a PV14 + MF2275 to sound better than a CA150?" Better I doubt it. A little different yes. I ran the PR 16 with the PR12's for quite a while. Also ran the PR 16 with a 2250. Went to the CA200 after that. Lost v... | |

| Are Expensive Balanced Interconnects Necessary? On a more serious note, using a Cardas Clear XLR vs. Mogomi XLR from my Atma-sphere pre to my Atma amp both of which meet the AES48 standard, I hear NO difference. When using the same cables from my Denafrips DAC (don't know if Denafripts meets... |
