| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? Re: the guy who started Laiv; just read he was Alvin's lieutenant at Vinshine, not a Denafrips employee as per my earlier post. @classic8 I agree wholeheartedly, but we maybe jumping the gun. The signs are ominous, but it's just speculation at th... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? @tds3371 Wow! That is odd. Isn't the guy who started Laiv an ex-Denafrips man? Or have I imagined that? | |
| Stack Audio-SmoothLAN Network Filter- WOW! I was wondering how the SmoothLan compared to the ENO; I have my ENO plus NA streaming cable, between LHY SW8 switch and my streamer. I don't suppose anyone has tried a direct comparison by any chance? | |
| MQA....again. @mahler123 it's difficult not to be cynical about all of this, for the reasons you've alluded to. It seemed to me a cynical attempt, as you say, to "headlock" hardware manufacturers by puffing up the need/creating a market for a product that was ... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? @fthompson251 this did cross my mind too to be honest, as you can "Shop" and check out via the Denafrips site still | |
| MQA....again. ...or you could do both; the 2 things are not mutually exclusive, providing you have a streamer/DAC which can perform all unfolding stages of an MQA file 👍 | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? Just to add; I've just checked Vinshine's site and all the DDC's are showing as out of stock too 🤔 | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? @pc527 I don't understand what's happening with Denafrips. I emailed Vinshine over the weekend; Alvin replied yesterday and basically said Vinshine are waiting for a public announcement by Denafrips, and that the 15th were released in an "unplan... | |
| Stack Audio-SmoothLAN Network Filter- WOW! My EQs were late arriving through no fault of Stack; held up by the UK Royal Mail, but Josh emailed to apologise.and to see what I thought of the EQs. Very attentive; great customer service | |
| MQA....again. @wolf_garcia 😂 no, definitely don’t want your head to explode. Plus, think of the mess someone would have to clean-up | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? @fynnegan you could well be right; I wouldn't rule anything out at this stage, with no official word or info on the full change log from Denafrips/Vinshine | |
| MQA....again. I tend to agree re: MQA being solution to a problem that doesn't really exist (any longer). If this new venture is built around MQA I think it may fail, dismally. If MQA is their only USP......well we've been here before; I'm not sure what the log... | |
| Stack Audio Auva Isolator @ozzy thanks Ozzy. I think you're right on both fronts; great product, reasonable price. Josh at Stack Audio was really attentive, over multiple emails, fast shipping, great customer service. I'll definitely be going back for more EQs and the Auva... | |
| Stack Audio Auva Isolator I received my 3x EQ CSA 2’s yesterday; they came with wafer-thin, rubber like discs I assumed to sit on top of the EQ’s and act as a protection for the underside of the component, and/or to prevent slippage? I used them as such anyway To be hones... | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 vs iPhone plugged directly to integrated amp - why no difference? 🤣🤣🤣 |
