VTV D300 Digital amp
He will be getting faceplates in without the Purifi logo......The modules are from the same company as used in the Peachtree GaN 1......Elegant Audio Solutions (EAS). There are lots of companies all over the world that do what VTV does....Nord, Ap... 
VTV D300 Digital amp
You need volume control in your streamer, xover or computer.  For instance, if you have only CD as a source you could use the $500 Minidsp flex with its remote volume control and you can use all the eq in the flex to equalize and room correct....a... 
VTV D300 Digital amp
?  Who is he?  What are you talking about?   This amp is released NOW.  
Best DACs under $7,000.00
You need to convert DSD to PCM and the same with vinyl or tape.  24/192 is pretty darn transparent......it is the sending and receiving and storage that is the problem......when doing it on the fly.....very, very little loss.  
Best DACs under $7,000.00
Let’s see......he is a salesmen who sells DACs over $20K and amps over $20K and preamps over $20K......If he promoted a $1500 digital amp.....he would not be in business (he makes thousands on every sale).....As you know, no preamp, DAC and normal... 
The revolution has begun!
VTV just released a digital amp that uses a more powerful version of the EAS board.........The VTV D300 is now being sold: The reason it says Purifi on the faceplate is that he does not have any faceplates with D300 on them....He will allow... 
Best DACs under $7,000.00
As stated before.....you need no tubes, transistors or opamps BEFORE the DSP chip in a digital amp.....no preamps, no DACs with their output stages and no normal tube or transistor amps......of course there are transistors in the DSP chip and driv...

A "transport" is just the spinner in a CD player.  Almost every CD player has a coax digital out so can be used as just a "Transport".  Your Audiolab has no DAC in it so you call it a transport rather than a CD player.  Any player including univer...

A serious advantage of a digital amp system is that you can add....or use alone the $500 Minidsp flex.....for tweaking your system or bi-amping. If you have a CD player and that is your only source then you can buy the Flex and use it as your volu...

Infomercial? I do not sell amps using the EAS modules......You cannot tell the difference between a super enthusiastic person who thinks EVERYONE should know the good news and a salesman?  What if I was preaching religion?.....actually, I preach l... 
Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
Now, I understand.....thespeakerdude is an objectivist......he believes in measurements only......that is why he thinkis that DACs and op amps and normal amps are transparent.......sorry. even one resistor is not transparent......we live in differ... 
Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
Besides being purer sounding than a normal active system.....digital amplification allows you to tune the speaker any way you like, including get rid of bass nodes and extend the bass.  You are stuck with the drivers, box design and amplifiers and... 
Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
Actually speaker design is simple.....there are not that many factors and you can learn them all in a few hours and apply them with a digital xover and digital amps. There are tons of speakers that cross over a tweeter below 1K......yes, indeed. H... 
Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
The new digital amp boards from Elegant Audio Solutions (like the old TACT and Lyngdorf but more modern and using GaNs on the output).....allow inexpensive active multiamping using an external digital xover such as the inexpensive Minidsp units. F... 
New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
Mods to the Mofi will not make it measure better.....I am sure it measures really flat......However, with better parts....wire, jacks, coils, caps, resitors and other tweaks it will reach another level.  This is normal stuff....nothing being inven...
