| PS Audio Direct Stream Emm labs has been doing what the DS claims since the beginning. Meitner and Emm utilize immediate DSD conversion and up sampling to process PCM and then convert to analog. Obviously Mr. Meitner is doing something right.In DSD there are no filters ... | |
| Merrill VERITAS monoblock amplifiers I'm very happy with my system right now. I'm focusing on my DAC/Pre-amp combo. Deciding if I should run DAC straight into amps or keep the Rowland Pre-amp which I have fallen in love with. I just traded in my PerfectWave 2 for the new PS Audio Hot... | |
