    Foobar 2K and sample rate switches - leaves audio cut off after switch.

    Ok so I am having problems with Foobar. I have a DAC that handles multiple sample rates and switches between them based on the sample rate of the source material.   In Foobar I am using WASAPI even style, and have all DSP settings turned off. The problem I am experiencing is when I play a...

    Hiromasa Suzuki Trio - Primrose [2008]

    Hiromasa Suzuki Trio - Primrose [2008] I am looking for this CD. Does anyone know where I can get a copy? When I search the internet, all that comes up are links to mp3s. I searched the site of the record label that printed it and it is out of print.

    The Love Below/Speakerboxxx recording quality.

    Is it just me or are these CDs AMAZINGLY recorded/mastered? Everything is so damn clean and the compositional skills of Andre blow me away. Opinions?

    HD-800s with gungnir/lyr?

    I feel that I should spend some money on headphones. My q701s are a lot better and very enjoyable now that I have an amp that powers them well. I love the comfort they offer. I want to upgrade my cans though...still not in love with the 701s.   Would the hd800s sound good with my DAC/Amp? I...

    Should I get the Schitt Gungnir or Yulong D-18 for a Lyr/AKG q701 combo?

    So I have definitely become accustomed to my q701 headphones. I really like how they sound with some music. With other music, they can tend to sound a little harsh, and hurt my ears--in the highs that is. It also seems like with some music they tend to make it very apparent when music was...

    What is the best option for getting audio to schitt Gungnir DAC?

    I have been told that the USB input on the Schitt Gungnir DAC while great, is outperformed by the DAC's coaxial and optical S/PDIF inputs.   The one option that I know of is using a computer to feed music to the DAC with a soundcard that has digital connections on it. Does noise interference...

    Where do you all source your high quality tracks from?

    I use EAC to rip CDs from my own collection and I get vinyl rips off of the internet from people with expensive turntable setups.   What do you audiophiles use for high quality music? Vinyl rips, CD rips, digital high res downloads?   **edit** I'm just trying to get an idea for what...

    Looking for recommendations on a <$1000 DAC to pair with Cavalli Liquid Fire

    Howdy,    So I have had my eyes on the Yulong Sabre D-18 DAC. I plan to run either an Coaxial SPDIF cable or a digital optical cable from my HT Omega Claro+ soundcard into the DAC, and then run the DAC into a Cavalli Liquid Fire amp.   Can I get some recommendations on the best DAC's for...

    Digital output from PC to Yulong Sabre D18?

    I have an Omega HT Claro+ sound card in my PC. It has both digital optical and SPDIF outputs. Would either of these be suitable to feed high resolution audio from my PC to a DAC (the Sabre D18 specifically)?   If this is not a good solution can anyone tell me why and offer alternatives?  ...
