    Fubar II, in grey

    Firestone Spitfire owners

    Hi smeggy The Spitfire is using Toslink cable. I seldom seen 90 degree Toslink cables, but you can find the straight normal ones in almost every decent audio shop.

    My speaker quest continued - Heard some Martin Logans and JMLabs

    I really like the VS VR4 jr. This is one of the top speakers I really like under $4K or so. If you like bass and have a big room, the VR4 sr. might be even better. http://www.vonschweikert.com/vr4jr.html

    Athena AS-B1 and T-AMP Fatiguing?

    How big is your space? Have you changed the power supply of the t-amp? Is this the $20 sonic impact we are talking about or the newer ~$100 "super t-amp"? From what you are saying, I feel the T-amp doesn't have enough power for your use.

    Cute x 3 = Adorable!

    Hi luukas 1) It will depend on the design of the DAC, usually you won't "feel" the delay. But with some buffer design like the Chord DAC64, there is a 2~3 secs delay if you choose the mode. 2) In this case, I would suggest you take the COAX cable solution. A good 6 meter long optical cable...

    Mytek Stereo 96 DAC

    Well, I ended up with a Chord DAC64. It is much better. More expensive, but money well spent.
