| Is computer audio a bust? Cd players aren't big sellers these days. They are way down compared to its hey day. | |
| Is computer audio a bust? I'll say it again.....computer audio is how 99.9999 percent of all music is recorded.....mixed and mastered today. Playing back files on your computer has the potential to be as close to the final mix as possible....for the good or bad of it. Peop... | |
| Can headphones ever be as good as high end stereo? Different! | |
| Who uses home brew cables? I make my own cables. I use teflon silver plated oxygen free copper in various gages depending on the application. With ic they are sheilded.....with speaker wire or hook up they are unsheilded. I have few unsheilded and they work with 2.5 volt si... | |
| upgrading Classe preamp CP-30 to CP-500? Yes.....The 500 will certainly provide a clearer picture. It is voiced a bit different than the 30.....which for its price when it came out was good piece of gear but more romantic sounding than later preamps by classe. So, the 500 should sound a ... | |
| Jolida JD102CRC Nope, you missed it. | |
| Jolida JD102CRC Her E at audiogon if it is not there you missed it. I'll check, too. | |
| Jolida JD102CRC PrimaLuna prologue 2 just popped up for 795. This might be the piece you have been looking for. It is an integrated. | |
| Jolida JD102CRC I've read nice things about peachy stuff, however, it is a mosfet amp with a high bred tube pre incorporating a dac. Not actually what you set out for but may meet your goal sonically. Best of luck but I think you might have been well served by a ... | |

| Jolida JD102CRC No.....but with the right speakers. Of course that would mean a total new system.....but hey.....it just hi fi and that is what makes this hobby fun. I think I just spied a pair of horn shop speakers in the classify section for 600. The Inspire a ... | |
| Jolida JD102CRC The Dennis Had kt88 inspire is sure a sweet amp....Coupled with a passive pre and your nad phono would make a nice combo with the right speakers. Check it out in the tube amp for sale section. | |
| Jolida JD102CRC I owned a 102b and enjoyed it very much. The el84 tubes are inexpensive and fun. Biasing isn't too fussy and it plays nicely. The new 102 comes stock with a Alps blue velvet the older ones came with a cheaper alps. I modded mine to accept the blue... | |
| Is computer audio a bust? I believe my ears. I have listen to an analog signal converted on the fly from all sample rates and bit depths. The difference for me is obvious, with higher res always sounding closer to the source. Attack and decay of notes are almost always an ... | |
| Newbie question re: USB quality Back in 2005 I had a recording gig where I recorded Jerome Harris for a live show. I used a computer based system running at 96/24 and a Masterlink running at 96/24. For the computer I ran a Grace Design converter and the Master link used the inte... |
