Best way to send digital to DAC
I'm looking at the Aurender N100H because I heard the USB output is noticeably cleaner and more airy and the interface is good without having to pay extra for interface software like Roon.  Does that sound like I'm headed the best way?

Thank you. 
A DAC that can make digital sound analog?
Every ModWright I have heard sounds like Sony with more space.  Not analogue at all.  The Oppo is not a very good sounding CD transport like most universal transports.  Example is that if you burn your CD's to a thumb drive it will sound better th... 
BEST SHIELDED XLR CABLES
I am a cable manufacturer so I won't talk about mine. (Bionic Cables) LOLSystem matching is important tonally and resolution wise.  Silver does tend to have a metallic sheen to the high frequencies and when you start getting into the high performa... 
Is a Power Wedge 116 any good?
I am a dealer and I used to sell the Power Wedge when there was not a lot of choice. ( Tice) The Power Wedge is dark and compressed. There are a few good ones out there that would make quite a difference if your system is resolved.We sell some for... 
REL Subwoofer: Speakon or RCA?
I'm a REL dealer. Speakon is way better because the amp in the REL will emulate the character of the amp so the blending and seamlessness is much better.  It will sound like the amp in the REL is a Rogue.

News cables wouldn’t work with my Turntable
I am a cable manufacturer. (Bionic Cables)We do not make a phono cable yet so I am unbiased. lolWhat you are hearing is caused be one or more of the following. Lack of a dedicated, balanced shield, potential between ground and shield, or impedance... 
Cable Burn In
Warning: I'm a cable designer and manufacturer.Cables and a system has to be resolved enough to hear the break in period. Cables like Monster are so grainy and blurred that there is no difference and just because a system is detailed doesn't mean ... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
As a manufacturer of Bionic Cables, there are still issues in cables none of us know how to solve.  There are also issues that the fix for, causes worse problems elsewhere which a few high end cables do anyway probably because the designer is so t... 
MC Phono Preamp
One of the most all around performers in that price range is the Parasound.  It is musical and safe sounding with good gain.  You have to spend almost 4 times as much and get into tubes to clearly stomp it in all aspects. NOTE:  I am a dealer but ... 
Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition)
Actually Pilinius might not belong on the do not list. 
Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition)
