does anyone know the name of the material from which the foam rings of the Q701 are made(the ones that look like donuts...)?     Thanks!

  It is obvious that most of you know nothing about cables RCA is an analog CABLE but the signal can still be DIGITAL  for example...you use a mini to RCA adaptor to connect you PC to your Ipod or amp..,it is still digital signal when it enters the amp(unless you have a DAC of course)...

you are arguing on well known subjects CD players all sound the same because again...digital sound LP players sound differently because it is pure analog

what would be better for classical + rock music? what amps + DAC setups would be good for each one?   thank you!

That's not necessary ...I know that I'm going to talk to people who "know" what they are buying and absolutely sure that it can't be wrong...   I just need to know... is there a proven\physical\known difference between expansive ANALOG signal cables such as those that come out (output) of...

Thank you all! that 3K USB is just ridiculous...100% digital signal...just as good as a 0.99$ USB   but here is my question... are expansive analog cables that come out of a DAC make a difference?(because the signal is analog and not digital...) or headphone cables such as upgrade...

I thing that bothered my is...how can people buy 500$ cables to connect their PC to their DAC when it is all 100% placebo.... Its all digital signal... any expert will tell you the same...just like an HDMI cable...it neither works or it doesn't...that's a fact... please note that I'm not...

Ok...lets make this a little more "pro" what DAC\'s would be good for PS1000 with WOOAUDIO WA2

OK... so what is the best DAC under 1000$?

  what is the best DAC under 1000$?   many people say that unlike amp's...DAC are not worth more then -insert $ here- because you cannot tell the difference...is that true?   thank you!
