    Resonessence Labs Concero discussion/review thead

      Unfortunately, I cannot hear the difference between analog interconnects either. I cannot call you wrong because, again, I can't hear what you hear.   I will work my way through that article in the next little while (critical reading is tough for me), either way, I'm not sure I can offer...

    tyvm.   ---- to the people that can hear the difference, apologies for my defective hearing. While I can't proof you wrong, you can always proof yourself right ( I bet there are many people [USB cable makers?] that would compensate you handsomely if you can demonstrate the ablity to...

    Resonessence Labs Concero discussion/review thead

    I've thought about this subject long and hard, if you tell me you can hear something and I don't believe you, I cannot think of a way to proof you wrong that I'm comfortable with. I've stated my reasons for disbelieving above, and I'd also like that to be on the record.

        remember Silicon Graphics? Once upon a time, they were the ONLY 3d graphics option. If you go through the history of the computer revolution, it is full of stories of companies that refuse to "eat their own" , didn't "trickle down" , and no longer exists

    Resonessence Labs Concero discussion/review thead

      I had an email  chat with Mr. Mallinson when I bought my Concero HD, he does understand that there is a market for a lower price Invicta all-in-one type product, if you are looking for such a product and you are happy with the Concero, I suggest you wait.

    Metrum Acoustics Octave

    Hi, I have an Octave 2 on the way, just wondering if the consensus right now is to get an external clock (ie USB to SPDIF converter) for the DAC. If so, what are the recommendations?

    ALO Pan Am desktop/portable headphone amp/DAC: Impressions and Reviews

    just got these Sylvania JAN tubes in, burned them in for a few hours, and been listening for a little while. Very sweet sounding without being slow, very punchy bass (I hate heavy bass but these are great). Great for rock music. Definitely in my top three. Highly recommended. I just failed to...

    ALO Pan Am desktop/portable headphone amp/DAC: Impressions and Reviews

      I was told by an electronics store that I went to that none of these tubes are being manufactured. I have no idea how much stock anyone have left. But keep in mind that ALO ran out of stock of some of the tubes they use to stock already. hope this helps
