| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Bryston BDA-3 Look it up Really? Ha. Not for this thread.I'd love their legendary home theater prepro (SP3) for my home theater though! | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Power cords and hi end distribution/conditioning are essential. I have Shunyata Denali and Alpha/Delta cables. Take all that away and my listening experience simply isn't "hi end" as I now appreciate it.Audioquest Hurricane and their flagship cond... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt, will you be auditioning the new Playback Designs MPD-8? I'm not sure how many of the statement level DACs you've enjoyed employ FPGA. Might be informative for thread followers if you spend some time with it.Also, and a bit off-topic, which A... | |

| PS Audio uber dac Well, Andreas Koch's MPD-8 has already gotten one rave review. Hopefully, Playback Designs will market the Dream Series just a little bit. There won't be much hype, but who will bet against the result? | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD MPD-8 Review^Andreas Koch's new flagship is coming. Hoping Matt will consider. | |
| Opinions on best integrated under 10k? Where does the Yamaha A-S3000 shake out? | |
| Best of the best Integrated amps in 2018 The T+A lists for $23,500 in the USA though. Huge leap from the Gryphon or Vitus (no add-ons such as phono or DAC). I just wonder how good these two could be compared to somewhat hi-end separates such as mine. And then, the T+A is another matter. ... | |
| Best of the best Integrated amps in 2018 These 3 seem interesting:Vitus RI-101Gryphon Diablo 300T+A 3100 HV The Gryphon Diablo 300 surely will. You can add the Luxman L-509X. I have a factory upgraded Cary Audio SLP-05 with nice NOS tubes paired with 200.2 SS power amp. Wondering what... | |
| Best of the best Integrated amps in 2018 Will the Pass and Gryphon, for example, easily outclass fairly well regarded tube pre-amp/SS power amp separates in the $10,000 price range (combined)? | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt, hopefully you will end up coming across the Playback Designs Dream Series line. Andreas Koch has quite a resume and was involved in getting PS Audio's engineer into FPGA.The Playback Designs MPS-5 (flagship SACD player) came to market about ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Then it's about "best for PCM RedBook" as you stated. And of course the talk will come down to technology.George, respectfully, knock it off. Everyone reading this thread is familiar with your R2R dogma. I have personally had great results with D... | |
| ELAC - Adante... what’s the verdict? Any view on Adante for dedicated film screening room? AS61 and AC61. Must be quite a bit of competition at $4500 for L/C/R. Is there a design and construction (and performance, of course) advantage from ELAC and Andrew Jones? | |
| Classe SSP-800 - Time to move on? I only have a single source in my home theater (Panny UB900), which sits next to my projector and has dual-outs. I run a very short HDMI to the projector and a long HDMI run carrying only the audio to my Pre-pro. I suppose most people have at leas... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt, sort of a shame you've introduced more variables by moving around. Had been looking forward to impressions of the Mystique v3 DAC. Hopefully, you can compare redbook and hi-res PCM to DaVinci. |
