    New 325is and new finish!

    I have been doing A/B tests between the "chrome" 325is and the new pair....I would say that the new 325is may be slightly warmer than the chrome model. I find that my older "chrome" 325is can get a little fatiguing after 2-3 hours of constant listening. I am not getting that on my new pair....As...

    Digital Coaxial cable under $100.00

    Can someone recommend a good Digital Coax cable for my DAC that is under $100.00? This cable will be going from my MF V-Link to my MF V-DAC. Right now I am having a problem with my optical cable and want to change it to a coax.

    New 325is and new finish!

    They seem to weigh a little bit more than the older "chrome" 325is, however I don't have a scale to weigh them both at the moment. Still burning in and sounding great!

    New 325is and new finish!

    I have them burning in on my computer system...V-Link + V-DAC + V-CAN>>Pangea power supply. Pangea USB cable from PC to V-Link, Audioquest optical cable from V-Link to V-DAC and Chord crimson red RCA to V-CAN. I would say these seem to be a little tamer in the treble department out of the...

    New 325is and new finish!

    Yea....I agree. Now I have to find a way for my wife to take my old 325's so I can keep these for myself. I think Grado took heed and listened to the complaints about the "old new finish" .

    New 325is and new finish!

    I just purchased a new set of Grado 325is can's for my wife (I already have a set for myself) from Crutchfield. They have dumped the "new" silver chrome look and have gone to a powder coat type finish. I like the new finish much better than the pair I bought for myself last year that had the...

    Musical Fidelity V-DAC Mk. II & V-Link Mk. II

    Is it just me? I still prefer the separate components V-Link>>>V-Dac over the combined unit......And I also still prefer the old black style box over the silver.

    Can't Decide on a Setup

    Audioengine A5's and Sub will run around $675.00 but you won't need an amp. If you have an amp or receiver then a good setup is the Cambridge Audio S30 monitors with the S90 sub ($219.00 for the speakers and $299.00 for the sub). Myself, I would go with the Cambridge setup.

    V-Dac and the V-Dac MK2

    I am thinking about getting the V-Dac or V-DacMK2 to go with my V-CAN amp and computer rig. My question and concerns are: If I get the V-DACMK2 the asynchronous USB samples at 24/96. But if I go with the older V-DAC and the V-link then my end result will be 24/192? I say this because the...
