| O.C.D. Speaker placement I totally get where you guys are coming from. In fact, I'm even more particular than that! I've actually been diagnosed as CDO, which is a lot like OCD but the letters are in the correct alphabetical order. | |
| Switching preamps in and out Mike - I will be very interested in your findings. I currently have a VAC Renaissance 2 (modified by VAC) and had an Allnic L3000 for a while. | |
| DSpeaker Anti Mode Dual Core 2.0 Room Correction Spent some time playing around with the unit today, and here were my observations:- Definite benefit from switching to a battery power supply, when using the unit as a DAC/preamp.

It can be used for an audio power supply - and recharged between uses. I will try that out. I've been in touch with Toni ... | |
