| OPPO BDP-103 (NON Darby) Ha, ha, ha. Tough crowd. | |
| OPPO BDP-103 (NON Darby) The Emotiva amp I have is the newest Gen 3. "Gutless?" "Soul Sucking?" I guess I can see how you might say that on some level, but what are you comparing it to? Granted, it's not an Esoteric or the like! The Mayback looks interesting and I was not... | |
| Any actual use of Pono Player through balanced connection into home stereo? Thanks Eric. No doubt Pono will be producing more "players" in the future that offer different music opportunities. I hope it is soon! | |
| Any actual use of Pono Player through balanced connection into home stereo? Thanks Eric. I'm still mulling it over. For the $399.00 price of admission what's really to loose? Guess I could always send it back if it didn't work out. I don't own a SACD player and even though that medium is quite limited I've been contemplat... | |
| Any actual use of Pono Player through balanced connection into home stereo? Yes, I think my idea is an affordable music server that sounds better than your average consumer grade FLAC/DSD player via thumb drive or SACD. As I stated, I do not intend to use as a portable or with head phones. I curious if the Pono produces a... | |
| Any actual use of Pono Player through balanced connection into home stereo? If anyone cares to comment, I'm interested in how this Pono Player produces various aspects of sound such as tone, bass, sound stage, etc. through a home audio system. I do not use head phones or would I intend to use it as a portable unit.Thanks. | |
| What's going on with the audio market? Very stagnant economy the past 10 years with a feeble recovery. Middle class income wages diminishing, true unemployment rate is high. Look at the Labor Dept statistics u6=the full picture, u3 of 5% is misleading and incomplete. Our economy ne... | |

| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception Perhaps not totally on target regarding this forum topic but an experience I recently had on eBay;I purchased a fairly expensive turntable from a "reputable" seller (NOT AMAZON) with 100% positive feedback. Received the item and, as it turned out,... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Dianna Krall. Her bluesy stuff. What a sexy lady. | |
| OPPO BDP103 & DSD Files I think you pretty much hit the nail on the head!Currently I am not playing any SACD files. I am playing 2 channel DSD via thumb drive & network and this is what I am hoping to continue to do in addition to a good SACD player. My system will b... | |
| OPPO BDP103 & DSD Files Nobody wants to chime in? OK, how about any suggestions on the Wyred 4 Sound STI-500? Any thoughts on this one? | |
| First Hand Experience? Hi vicwest.Yes it seems I am being driven in the Parasound direction! I have given the z-line a cursory look but will give it a more thorough examination. I was looking at the Halo line which looks impressive and the Halo 23 is well within my pric... | |
| First Hand Experience? Understood. Is impedance matching more important with a tube pre & ss power amp combination? I read a rule of thumb might be about a 10:1 to about a 100:1 ratio, power amp input impedance to preamp output impedance.Again, does this hold true f... | |
| First Hand Experience? Another priority for me is sound stage and separation of instruments. I get that to some degree with the Yamaha integrate with a good FLAC or DSD file. But not nearly to the point where I can picture the instruments in their respective locations. ... |
