| Stylast black brush: missing now days.. Why? I like using the black brush I replaced my old Last brush with the one made by Ortofon and use it before to play each side of the record, the Zerodust only after 8 to 10 record (my lps are all cleaned using a rcm) | |
| Streaming Qobuz has streaming up to 24/192, at least here in Italy (where was introduced early this year). | |
| Streaming Preamp w/ Phono Linn Akurate DSM.Sounds great, has everything you need now and then, great support. Unfortunately is way out from your budget.Disclaimer:I am a Linn dealer | |
| Has Anyone Heard the (fairly) New Technics Grand Class TT? Dweller is right on his description of the differences between the SL1200 variant.SL1200GAE and SL1200GEG are the same turntable, the GAE was the limited edition version. The SL1200GR (silver)/SL1210GR (black) are the lighter version with a cheape... | |
| Support for Linn digital streamers from dealer network on used equipment You will find a lot of useful info on the Linn forum, also from Linn dealers as me. Btw, there is not too much to know in order to make it work as the Linn streamers are almost plug and play. Fell free to contact me for further details. | |
| Streaming Audio Questions Personally I do not like the computer+dac solution and prefer a dedicated network player. The Bluesound are nice products with a very good app to control; you can find alternatives within the same price range as the Marantz NA6005 (but the app sti... | |

| When DVD Audio Extractor doesn't work ... Try DVDAexplorer (it's free), it always works for me (beside few cases .....). | |
| Coax or USB between transport and DAC? "If you are saying that by ripping at 24/96k or 24/192k....": no, I've not said so, a Linn DS engineer said so. Again, there is no advantages in ripping a 16bit CD to 24 bit when your DS will do this job on the fly during the playback. Please read... | |
| Coax or USB between transport and DAC? Audiofreak32, I'm a Linn dealer and one of the first to embrace wholeheartily the DS bandwagon (at least here where I live and work)....... so I know a little about it. A different matter are "real" 24 bit files but one CD (that is 16 bit) ripped ... | |
| Coax or USB between transport and DAC? Audiofreak32, CDs are 16 bit and ripping them at 24 bit will not give you any benefit. Then, IMHO, FLAC is the way to go if you want to manage the library in a convenient way because WAV doesn't support the tags. | |
| Hi Res ripping software for Mac ? XLD I was told by Mac users. | |
