This is the best streamer value for money I have heard. I A-B'd it directly with the Chord 2go/2yu and the Bluesound Node, and preferred the Zen Stream. I'm only moving on from it because I'm changing my 2-channel setup to an active speaker with built-in streaming. Includes original box and...

Exceptional condition Chord Hugo 2, complete with original accessories and original box. The long optical cable no longer has dust caps, but other than that, not a single bit is missing. No functional issues, and no scratches dings or dents to note. This is still my favorite DAC at its price...

Mostly looking forward to meeting the Headphones.com folks again! But if I had to make a gear wish list... Warwick Aperio and/or Bravura (the Bravura was broken last year) Niimbus US 5 and/or Violectric V550 Ferrum Wandla Feliks Envy (very impressive last year)

I second this one. iPower Elite (or similar) that can do 19V x 3.5A for a Roon Nucleus (or equivalent NUC). This second one is getting pretty wild, but what about a battery that could power a whole headphone system for a few hours that outputs absolutely flawless, distortion-free AC.... :)

Exceptional condition Audioquest Thunderbird RCA cables (0.75M). These are the finest commercially available RCA cables that I have ever heard. They have a coherence across the entire frequency range that is difficult to describe until you hear it. Everything is crystal clear against a pitch...

@mjstealey was a fantastic buyer to deal with. He replied promptly during our conversation and paid immediately after agreeing on the sale. The unit was out the door the same day we started chatting!

I don't think people actually in the market for a DAVE - typically experienced audiophiles - could care less about what ASR thinks. Those who like to proclaim DAVE (and many other products) as overpriced and of little-to-no incremental value are also typically people who have never heard these...

Singxer SU-6 DDC This Singxer DDC is one of the better upgrades I made in my system. I carefully tested lots of options for feeding my DAC, including three highly-regarded dedicated streamers (Chord 2go/2yu, iFi Zen Stream, Bluesound Node), but putting this between my server and DAC had both...

Mint condition Nitsch DSHA-3FN Manufacturer product page: https://nitschsound.com/products/dsha-3fn This amp deserves all the praise it has had. In particular, the background is still the blackest I've ever (not) heard. Buyer pays shipping, and I cover PayPal Goods & Services Fees. Please...

Well cared-for KEF LS50 Meta speakers in black. Will ship in original factory packaging. The stands are NOT included, and have already sold. The speakers have the rubber bumpers that come with the S2 stands installed on the bottom, but can be easily removed by the buyer if desired. I will...

Many people won't have that as their ultimate goal, and still others won't actually agree with you that vinyl is objectively worse even if it is. Again - distortion isn't the only measure we can go by. To be clear, I agree with you. I'm a huge Chord fan (owner of a Mojo OG, Hugo 2, M Scaler...

There's no reason to put vinyl down as some objectively inferior medium. If distortion were the only thing we all made our decisions by, many of our rigs would be very different. It doesn't have to be a "better or worse" discussion. I have vinyl and digital (as do many of us), and enjoy them...

Hey there. I'm not sure I quite follow why you'd set things up this way. That's adding a heck of a lot of complexity and additional boxes and cables to your signal path. The more common route would be sources (including TT2) --> preamp --> everything else. Simple; no need for the switch box. You...
