    Twisted Pear Opus DAC or Benchmark DAC1?

    I'm also interested in this question. There haven't been many comparisons of the Opus Dac. If any owners can help us out, it will be much appreciated.

    Just got the X3i. I had the X3 before, the sound definitely seems better than the X3i, and the build quality is better.

    Hookup wire question

    Well, to be more specific, I was just wondering if their were any problems or disadvantages using cheap copper wire as opposed to silver wire or silver plated copper wire. Just wondering if the actual material used for the wire had much affect on the sound.

    Hookup wire question

    It may be a bit of a noob question, but how much does the quality of the internal hookup wiring affect the quality of an amp? Also, a question out there for the UK Diyers, where can I get decent quality wire in small lengths (10m, not the 30-100m wire reels)?
