Is it worth adding a Schiit Audio Eitr?
I bought an Eitr in August for my car stereo. I tested it in my “big rig” and never took it out. I have planar speakers that typically do not have pinpoinf imaging. With the Eitr, the instruments were in tight focus. Some of my recordings now soun... 
iPod/ITouch direct digital connection to a DAC
I use the Apple camera connection kit to output digital from an ipad/iphone to my Schiit Modi Multibit in my car. The output of the dac goes into the auxiliary input in my car. I use the Onkyo HF Player iOS app to play high res files. The Onkyo HF... 
M2Tech hiFace192 + Theta Gen Va synergy?
I agree that old Theta Digital DACs are still awesome when fed a low jitter source. I am using an iMac optical output, Wireworld Supernova, Assemblage D2D-1, three Twisted Pear Design S/PDIF transceivers in series (jitter filters) into a Theta Pro... 
warm digital cable
I purchased two Veloce cables and they are excellent. I then bought a Sterolab XV-Ultra which is even better. However, the best sp/pdif cable I have ever used is from WyWires. Very natrual sounding, dead quiet background, three dimensional imaging... 
Bryston BDP-1 Own one? What DAC are you using?
In my system I greatly prefer S/PDIF BNC cables over AES/EBU. I recently purchased a LITESPD Digital Interface cable with BNCs from WyWires that has transformed my system. Music is so natural and three dimensional. I am now transported to a concer... 
DAC and Jitter box question.........
IMHO you need the DIP! I have a Theta Pro Basic IIIA in my car along with 8 Theta TLC jitter filters followed by a DIP MK II and then an Assemblage UJB-1 filter. All of the jitter filters are hardwired (no RCA or BNC connectors) using Illuminati O... 
Does length matter with Toslink cables
I use the Supernovs 5+. It is better than the 3+. I have not heard the VanDen Hul. 
Musical Fidelity kw dm25 Transport & DAC
I heard these at a local dealer. They were hooked up to a system using Thiel speakers. The sound was very good. I did not compare them to other dacs or cd players. I read a review of this combo and the reviewer could not detect any differences bet... 
Need recommendation for a dark sound interconnects
Cardas Quadlink 5C is very dark. 
You might be an audiophile if...
you have 10 jitter filters, a Theta DAC and 110V in your car stereo. 
car stereo automobile sound system
I recommend using a separate DAC. I have a SONY CD changer with digital output. The DAC is a Theta Pro Basic IIIA preceeded by 10 jitter filters. Speakers are Dynaudio which are tri-amped. 
Good battery powered Toslink optical DAC needed
California Audio Labs Gamma will work on 12 volts. I used to have it installed in my car stereo. 
Blue Light Lasers???
The audio specifications have not been finalized. There are two competing formats Blu ray and DVD HD. DVD players will be available later this year. Due to the increased capacity of the blue laser, HD video and high res multi-cahnnel audio will be... 
Does this DAC exist?
I dont know of any dac with 2 toslink inputs. You could purchase a Monarchy DIP or Theta TLC to convert toslink to RCA or AES/EBU. 
best / worst album cover
King Crimson's first album certainly meets the description.
