    Alien or other USB DAC vs Auzen Prelude

    I've been considering throwing an Alien DAC in my next Millet Max build since it would be relatively easy to do and wouldn't require an additional power source. However, I'd rather not go through the time and extra expense if it wouldn't be better than my current setup, which consists of: Auzen...

    any way to reduce gain on my zhaolu 1.3?

    the output on my Zhaolu is too high. I have had some issues with it in the past, but never that bad.

    looking for new bookshelf speakers

    I'm seriously considering upgrading the mains on my stereo, but with a limited budget. Budget will be $300 (I know) but that's what I have to work with and I see no reason why I can't get a worthwhile upgrade for that price. What I currently have in my speaker setup: Transport: Marantz...

    Another reason to buy an Oppo

    I have an Oppo DV-971H DVD player that I have enjoyed for about a year and a half. About 6 months ago the tray started sticking and would not always open, but playing with it or unplugging it then plugging it back in would get it to open. It was an annoyance, but the unit displayed great video...

    For those who were at the Toronto meet I picked up a Ariston Audio RD11 TT from Laurent. However, I never hooked it up until this morning. (I told myself I couldn't hook up my system until I finished my equipment rack... and I finished it this morning) When I first turned it on the platter...

    PIMETA: what config for DT770's?

    what op-amp is a good choice for Beyer DT 770 Pro/80's in a PIMETA. I've got a PIMETA that I used to use w/ Senns so I had it configured how I normally would for Senns, but I find that I primarily use it with my 770's now. So what's a good match?

    Is there any trick to getting Foobar to work properly on Vista? I can't seem to get it to work right at all. I get errors both on startup and shutdown. It will play once I ignore the errors, but it's a PITA lol. So anyone using Vista and Foobar have a config that works?

    I would like to get an ipod basically so I can make LODs. I do fully enjoy my Creative Zen Vision:M and I considered a 5.5g ipod video but liked the Vision:M better.

    what's your favorite 1/4" TRS plug?

    I'm curious to see what everyone's favorite high quality TRS plug is. In the past I've used some Neutrik NP3X-B's and they're a nice plug, but not very easy to work with and they can't accept very large awg cable. I've been looking at the Canare F16 as I like the F12 mini plugs.
