| DVD-A and SACD player combo I doubt you will find a 2-channel "audio only" DVD-A and SACD player in the near future. The push for this type of "universal player" seems to be one that will play ALL discs, including DVD-A, DVD-V, CD, SACD, etc (maybe mp3, VCD, HDCD, etc). So y... | |

| Does Your Computer Sound Like a Jet Engine????? Why, yes, my home PC does sound like a jet engine. :-) 4x80mm Panaflos (filtered) on the intake and across the SCSI hard disk bays. Enermax PSU with whisper fans. One Thermal Millennium Glaciator HSF (1.5 copper) (not too loud) for the CPU. Combin... | |
| Audible differences between speaker cables? IMHO, speaker wire is less likey to change character between brands and makes than equivalent line level interconnects. In my system(s) (past and present) I *could* hear differences between some interconnects using *similar* construction. Once you... | |
| EVS Millenium DAC 2 ? You must have glanced over it, the page for the EVS M2 clearly states the chassis dimensions to be 14" by 11" by 3.25". http://www.tweakaudio.com/Millennium%20DAC.html>>>Millennium DAC IIUpdate: Most people know that op amps have sonic li... | |
| Question about break-in method for interconnects You're probably correct that "carrying a signal between the pre and amp" is probably enough. Though I always try to "break stuff in" using a full running system, myself. (source to speakers). Under ideal conditions I'd think you'd want to have the... | |
| Will people buy Snake Oil? The break-in period has me worried, though.... I too will be interested in the battery powered warmer as Ctyler suggested. And you thought IC break-in periods were too long, lol. I better not have to wear this stuff on my ears for >50hrs before... | |
| Audio Alchemy Remote Question You might get lucky and find source files for the controls on one of the enthusiast sites for learning remotes. For example I found these codeshttp://www.remotecentral.com/files/c-audioalchemy-preamplifier1.htmFor my AA DLC. You might find the sam... | |

| DVD-A WIZ-Bang-Boom No kidding A/V and music are separate. I don't even _own_ a TV set. :-) I haven't heard DVD-A yet, myself. But I have fielded questions among my non-audiophile friends as to why we need DVD-A when they thought Metallica's S&M on DVD-Video soun... | |
| DVD-A WIZ-Bang-Boom What was wrong with 24/96 PCM on DVD-Video discs? Surely that was good enough for the mass-market? | |

| Any cassette sources left with decent selection? cdnow.com has cassettes, I believe. Although the selection isn't too compelling. The Coconuts Music stores near me have a decent selection of cassettes, esp Jazz (at least my store does), but the prices are a little high, although nowhere near as ... | |
| Can CD Players be altered to play CD-Rs I was under the impression that the inability to play computer CD-R's or RW's was the fault of the transport's optics. CD-R aren't as reflective as reglar CDs. And CD-RWs are much worse, from what I've been lead to believe. You could try experimen... |
