| Linear Power Supply Recommendations! Uptone JS-2 is a choke based lps with two outputs, differs from the usual resistor/cap lps | |
| Neat "Tweaks" to improve the SQ of your streamed music!!! For those going optical conversion, not all is equal. Sonore converters superior to generic, quality of lps and dc cables going to the converters important. Transceivers used in these converters can also be improved, best are Finisar SFP 1475. | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. For those who believe GR offers no value with these mods, have you ever compared a modified to stock loudspeaker? I've been modifying my speakers for over twenty years, I've found great improvements can be had with top flight film caps, resistors,... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @brbrock In case you haven't seen tech and specs, http://www.mu-sound.com/DA006_detail.html Based on internal photos and sound quality/performance I'd suggest 006 isn't lacking in this respect. Resolution and dynamics, both micro and macro are top... | |
| Question about high current amps versus "not high current amps" Not only low impedance but impedance curves matter greatly as well. | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @wombat79 Comparisons are always informative, 006 does reach far above it's cost. @car123 Nice vinyl setup, I've heard most of your equipment at shows. Says a lot that you feel Musetec competes or surpasses it. Same vs my vinyl setup consistin... | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. Why the anger for all this. I constantly hear audiophiles harping on the lack of negative reviews of equipment, so now we don't like negative reviews! He's providing a service, up to his customers to determine the value of that service. And... | |
| Declare the correct value on the Customs form? Listen to those who know. This is returned goods, no duty, no fraud, I've done this exact thing when I've had upgrades done with my Canadian build equipment (US to Canada shipment). If you list value as $50, how would that bring up red flag, t... | |
| ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE STREAMERS REALLY WORTH IT @vthokie83 Nice thorough explanation. For those contemplating using I2S interface very valuable to have dac that provides the ability to use async (use dac internal clock) with that connection, with this one can determine the value of slave or int... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship When I first installed Gaia was using an inferior power cord and sitting on stock feet. Added one of my diy power cords (these replaced pc's up to $7k throughout system) and placed on Stillpoints, easily heard improvement. I wish everyone with... | |
| ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE STREAMERS REALLY WORTH IT Whatever interface one uses they all can be less or more depending on one's optimization. While I2S has some inherent advantages that doesn't mean it will always sound better than usb or whatever. Clocking and power supplies to the clocks is of u... | |
| The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse!! I get the criticisms for the pop music of today, many artists simply slapping out product using technology to cover up a lack of talent. But there are so many contemporary artists and music out there, real artistry produced with the tried and true... | |
| ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE STREAMERS REALLY WORTH IT I don't know if the Ps Audio has that capability, best to ask those familiar with unit. I'd also question whether you are indeed operating in sync mode, I was just reading this, https://forum.psaudio.com/t/ps-audio-i2s-clock/30748 According to my ... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @car123 I haven't been keeping close track to hours recently but somewhere around 350 for Gaia and 250 for Tubulus and sound continues to evolve. Mostly gains in harmonic structure and more natural attack and decay. Mostly what I love with my pres... | |
| Where are the front men? (Rant) I'm really into the crooners of the 50's, 60's, all the music I tried to hate in my youth. That was a time and place that can't be replicated, these are historical documents just as all music becomes with time. Male folk singers fit the bill as fr... |
