Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? In addition to the CPT 1800 I use 4 LessLoss Firewall 64X current conditioners. One before the CPT 1800 and one each before the server, DAC and amplifier. I have been very pleased with these additions. | |
Duelund RCA interconnects...opinions I purchased a 1m pair of Duelund 16 ga. unshielded RCA interconnects last year. After 4 months of regular use I replaced them with a pair of LessLoss C-MARC interconnects. In my system there was no comparison between the two. The noise floor of ... | |

EVS modded Gustard X20 DAC To me, the Gustard X20 with Ric's level 1 and 2 mods was significantly better than the Auralac Vega in my system. I sold the Vega and kept the X20. I would think the X20 Pro would be even better. | |
EVS modded Gustard X20 DAC I've had a Gustard X20 DAC with Ric's level 1 and 2 mods for about 6 months. This DAC with Ric's mods is a true bargain. Very, very good transparency, resolution and sound staging. It plays music, not hi fi. With a quality source component this D... | |

The Antipodes requires a hard wire Ethernet connect... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Mitch2,You are correct. The Antipodes DX rips CDs as uncompressed FLAC files. For existing files or new files ripped via another device you just copy and paste them to the Antipodes solid state drive via the network. It's all pretty straight forwa... |
