| solid core interconnect below 500.00pr.-which one I see you're using the Lightspeed preamp. As George has stated in another thread, what you really need are cables with a low capacitance (preferably <100pf), and SHORT cable lengths leaving the LSA going to the amp. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? I received my Job 225 today. As I commented on my virtual systems, build quality is nice but cheap binding posts. It's a touch bright right out of the box, but I can tell the detail and depth are there and will improve (I hope), over time. I will ... | |
| Novice needs Mac Mini and DAC advice Gregfisk: I'm glad the you're finding the Metrum Octave so enjoyable. I think you will see the Octave gets even better over time. I had a very good friend over today who has much better ear than I and we took the Metrum Octave amp-direct straight ... | |
| Novice needs Mac Mini and DAC advice Lewinskih01: So sorry. I haven't read this post in a while. I'm running Pure Music. A friend just told me he likes Audirvana over PM hands down. I went to Audirvana's website and they list Mac 10.6 or later. I have a 10.5. I don't think I will be ... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Thank you both for responding. Clio09: I know you said the sound was fine, but did you have ANY issues with limited dynamics, or felt at any time that you were "borderline" regarding dynamics? As I said, my listening volume is on average fairly lo... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? George: Forgive me but what I'm about to ask has been mentioned 100 times in this thread but I guess I just want some reassurance. I'm about to purchase a solid state amp with a 51,000 ohm input impedance and a .75V input sensitivity. My dac outpu... | |
| IMAX Oblivion -my take take on the experience Ah, it appears my poor spelling was the reason for this sad reminder...Promitheus preamps are spelled with an "i". Blast! | |
| IMAX Oblivion -my take take on the experience This movie is a perfect example of horrible execution of a good idea. The only bigger disaster than this movie is the fact that those were two hours of my life I will never get back. I found this thread while looking for comments on a Prometheus p... | |
| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved LMFAO Noble100. | |
| Dac Questions from an Analogue guy : Steve, I have an October 2009 Mini. I'm currently leaving the Mini via USB. Which of the five outputs do you recommend? | |
| Breakout DAC for 2013? Yes, there are a number of nice dacs in your price range and I certainly haven't heard a lot, but my Metrum Octave keeps me quite happy with no desire to change. | |
| New York Audio Show Review Theskudra: You didn't play anything to verify your claim. Maybe you didn't have any material handy (organ music was metntioned). I'm not doubting that the speaker is very heavy and probably does sound wonderful on various types of music (I know I ... | |
| Recommendation Speaker Cable around $1000-$2000 You're going to get a number of suggestions, but I must say that Syngergistic Research made a believer out of me with the actively shielded Tesla Accelerators. I hear equally wonderful things about Hidiamond as well, regarding a holographic, trans... | |
| New York Audio Show Review Mrtennis: I heard the Leonardo speaker and it sounded very nice. Visually gorgeous as well. The gentleman said it was flat to 20Hz. Someone asked if he had any music to play to see if we could "verify" his claim. He changed the subject. I'm sure i... | |
| Anyone going to the NY Audio show today to Sunday Well said, Adam18. I always thank the guys in the rooms, even if I didn't like what I heard. |
