Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD

"Car analogies only get you so much mileage."
Geoff, I "resemble" that comment!!!! That's exactly why my next car will be the Prius 2016... 60 miles per gallon *grins!* ... With standard audio setup, BTW.

Matt.... IMO, before you indulge in further line conditioning magic etc.... Why not upgrade your Burmies PCs. The new Shunyata Sigmas are obvious contenders.... But Norm brings up an excellent point.... HFCs are relatively new contenders, and they are more than worth careful examination. I have only explored the basic CT-1 and the Ultras, and find them to be astonishingly musical, resolving, and harmonically complex. The only caveat is that for high current amplifiers one must adopt a series that does not limit current.... This probably means at least the Ultras -- which I use on my M925s -- or an even higher series.

I searched for The Ultimate Tweak in archives but didn't find it. Can you provide a link?

How long will the WireWorld cables take to break in? One supposes there will be a review in about 12 months. ;-)

Tbg,what does these high fidelity pro power cord's cost retail for 6ft?

I find the sound without any connection whatsoever to house AC is quite extraordinary. No AC power, no power cords, no transformers. Live and let die. :-)
