    SACD rips?

    All demo material you can find that is not on an actual SACD disc (but in say a hi-rez flac) will NOT be true SACD but rather SACD re-recorded into a ADC (like a soundcard) and thus cannot be considered equal to the real thing. You go from DSD > analog > souncard ADC > PCM, this has a high...

    AMB, do you carry the USB connector used on the y1? I would like to order 2 TPS2115's from you, and if at all possible also buy the USB connector so I don't have to save up to the minimum order for places like Mouser or Farnell.

    AMB, I ordered the EP version of the TPS7333 reg, (TPS79333DBVREP) Do you think it's an improvement over the original? I just got it because it's in stock and the normal one isn't.

    Guys, please, just stop. Continue the argument in PM's or something but keep this topic clean please, nobody cares about your disagreements.

    Guys, this discussion has been made countless of times before on countless of different fora, and I hate to be blunt, but do you really think this is in any way a postive addition to this topic? I used to sample a lot too, but that was when I was a "starving student", I have a decent job now...

    The TPS79333 was not in stock at Mouser, so I ordered the EP version. I guess those are better?
