Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
Nyev, if you want Vana Ltd. in Nesconset, NY deals with Jorma cables. I received mine from him and it is an excellent AES/EBU cable.      
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
Can anyone tell what the differences would be going from a SR Blue fuse to a SR Purple. I want to replace them in my DAC, Preamp, and Amp.  
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
Glad you are enjoying your MU1 and Tambaqui combo. I have the same setup and love it. Give your MU1 and AES/EBU cable a couple hundred hours of break in. It will get fuller and better tonally without losing that openness and detail. The dynamics a... 
DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend
The Tambaqui is real nice and the Kassandra is killer!  
DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend
Hi Verdantaudio, I have been following your post, My friend and I have Dac's that you are interested in hearing. Maybe one day we can bring them over for a listen. I have a Mola Mola Tambaqui and my friend has an Aries Cerat Kassandra II dac. We... 
Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed?
Hey Robert you have really fine set-up. Your dac isn't the problem. I have the same dac and it is a really good dac. Try some room treatments if you can it makes a big difference. Your Focal speakers can be a little bright with bad recordings.  M... 
Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3
jackd, I am waiting patiently for your comparion between the CDT2 and the CDT3. I have the CDT2- MK.3 and think it sounds excellent and built like a tank. Want to know if the CDT3-MK.3 is at much higher level, It does cost much more. I seen the p... 
First Watt Sit-3 paired with Klipsch Cornwall lV?
You can shoot Nelson Pass an email and ask him what would be best.  He is very responsive and helpful. Maybe you are good without any because your speakers dip down below 8 ohms. You just don’t want them at higher than 8 ohms.  
First Watt Sit-3 paired with Klipsch Cornwall lV?
If your Cornwalls are a flat 8 ohm load then try resistors on the speaker terminals to get it down to 4 ohms. The SIT-3 sounds best at around 4 ohm loads. I don't remember which size resistors. Zu Audio would know and can make you a pair for your... 
Emm Labs DV2 versus Tambaqui
Metaldektor hit the nail on the head. It’s all about synergy!   
Emm Labs DV2 versus Tambaqui
I had a Denafrips Terminator and my friend lent me his May Dac KTE for a couple weeks and both don't better my Tambaqui Dac. Sorry lordmelton the Tambaqui has more resolution but, still manages to sound musical and has no digital artifacts. Much ... 
Preamp Deal of the Century
Andy from Vintage Tube Services has nice 6sn7 tubes. A little expensive but he backs his tubes.  
Preamp Deal of the Century
Audio123,  The RCA 6sn7 VT-231 gray glass or Kenrad 6sn7 VT-231 staggered plates with black glass or clear glass should give you what you want.  
DAC w Tube itch: Audio Mirror
Hi mdone, I never compared the Rockna to the AM. I sold my Denafrips Terminator and bought the AudioMirror Tubadour III SE which I liked better. It was more natural sounding with very nice tone and timbre. Detail and resolution were close. If yo... 
I am looking for a high-quality HDMI cable for I2S from a CD Transport to the DAC...
Get aTubulus Concentus i2s Cable. It is a dedicated cable just for audio. It won't work for your TV, I had the top of the line Wireworld Silver HDMI and the Tubulus is much better. More open, better tonality, more dynamic, etc. Really a big step u...
