Halide Bridge vs hiFace Evo vs Sonicweld 192
I agree with SAKAHARA, although I am still getting pretty decent sound with EVO. I had to go thru 9 levels of Technical Hell, being led by the Prince of Darkness himselfwith the loure of so-called CONVENIENCE! You buy a HighEnd CDT, and you get a ... 
Will a Wavelink or Offramp make a difference?
Davidm1108- I know that I am going to get into trouble forsaying this. I am currently using M2Tech EVO USB Converterout of PC-Windows 7. The EVO is feeding Space Tech Labs Vacuum Tube DAC via AES/EBU Digital. Tubes are renowned forpicking up Power... 
J River Vs. Media Monkey Do they sound different

Nice GCE Audioengr. I already gave multitude of variablesin my Statement, unless you can't tell the difference between a S/PDIF coax cable, Toslink, and USB Cable? Are you trying to say, in your Universe, that Firewire/BNC/ST Glass Fiber/Wireless/...

Sakahara-Internet search produced review of Reimyo DAP-777by Positive Feedback Issue 34 in 2007. Review includes bothReimyo DAP-777 and Reimyo CDT-777, both Solid State Units. It looks like the DAP-777 has a volume control, couldn't quite tell, re... 
Halide Bridge vs hiFace Evo vs Sonicweld 192
Lokie-Spending $1,799.00 on a Converter, that would normally sound great; but, sounds awful due to compatibility problems with DAC IS a waste of time and money. Turning this into Russian Roulete, or Crap Shoot isnever more simple, and definitely m...

Sakahara-You only get 1/2 of it. Too many variables tojust guess, there is a way to be reasonably certain. Contact Reimyo, look up past Reviews of DAP-777 on The Absolute Sound/Stereophile Websites. Reviewers havea tendency to try ALL Inputs to fi...

Can't get the M2Tech Hiface Drivers to download
Puerto-still unclear as to what happened during Thunderstorm. Was M2Tech Hiface fried? Was MAC damaged during Thunderstorm? Is this the M2Tech Hiface, or theM2Tech Hiface EVO? What type of connection are you usingwith M2Tech Device. If USB, try an...

Mac sound quality
Tmsorosk-Name based on being U.S. Navy Retired. Many in Computer Audio swear by Firewire, others USB, stillsome by Wireless, others by Toslink/ST-glass optical, someby AES/EBU. You simply can't design a DAC that is optimizedfor all of these Inputs...
