| Need some advise on DAC's please.... I have heard grat things about he Dodson 218 DAC. I do not have personal experience with it but it might be worth checking out. | |
| Quality of CD layer on hybrid SACD's I did a camparison between the redbook CD version of Dylan's John Wesley Harding and the CD layer of the SACD hybrid. I did enjoy the hybrid CD layer over the redbook CD. Mind you, it was not night and day, but there was a difference with the edge... | |
| Quality of CD layer on hybrid SACD's Mejames: thanks for the reference, it was enlightening. Chadnliz: Let us know what you find.I am going to try and make some comparisons myself between the CD layer of some hybrids I own and the the most recent redbook remastering of the same CD. I... | |
| Music from hard drive better than CD? Rsbeck: Do you run the Apogee mini Dac into a pre-amp or straing into a set of powered monitors? Can it be run into a preamp (like any DAC)? Thanks, | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Thanks, Oldpet, that is very helpful. Lkdog, we look forward to hearing from you. | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 How is the redbook performance on the TRL modded SA-14's? Is there a significant difference between redbook and SACD performance on these players? Thanks, | |
| Music from hard drive better than CD? Jax2: You are right that the Airpot Express would work, but, I don't currently have a DAC. So, I do need a DAC of some sort first.Rsbeck: If I decide I like interfacing with my music in this way, I will probably go with something like the Apogee. ... | |

| Music from hard drive better than CD? Okay, I think I figured out what I am going to do. I am going to use a Macintosh Powerbook as my interface and drive, and add a firewire hardrive to store my music in a lossless format. The only thing left to consider is, how do I connect the comp... | |
| Music from hard drive better than CD? Henryhk: I have heard good things about the McIntosh (thought it is priced at around ($5500). Yamaha has a hard disk player coming out soon (HD 1500 -- I think) that will cost substanitally less than the MAC (under 1K). They have one out right now... | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 I am wondering about the performance similarities or differences between the SA-14 v1, v2, and 8260 players once they have been TRL modified. I am particularly interested in SACD performance. Thanks, | |

| Music from hard drive better than CD? Thanks for these suggestions. A picture is beginning to form. | |
| Music from hard drive better than CD? Onhwy61: I have an apple laptop but it is my work computer and I do not want to load all of my discs to it. Also, I figure I would need about a 280 GB hard drive to store all of my discs in a lossless format. So I don't think a regular CPU will wo... | |
