    Will this setup work out?

    Macbook Pro -> Cambridge DacMagic -> Graham Slee Solo SRG II -> Sen HD650   With so many brands out there, wonder if this will sound alright.

    Essence STX to DACmajic. Worth $550 for the upgrade???

    I'm considering upgrading my source from Essence STX to DACmajic, bit I'm unsure if the additional cost will be justified, especially considering that source money could also go toward more varied headphones... Has anyone compared the STX and DACmajic (or any other external DAC) directly?  ...

    AKG K1000 and DAC Magic

    Hi   Just for fun, i tried connecting the K1000 directly to the RCA out of the DAC Magic. I was expecting the sound to be very brittle and harsh but to my suprise, it is not harsh at all. I can hear some distortion but the sound is pretty decent and audible. I also find the sound to be very...

    HiFi store pushing wireless system rather aggressively

    I have always been skeptical of buying anything that transfers audio via a wireless signal, and have always thought good cables make or break a good audio system. According to a gentleman at the local Hifi store, the latest and greatest craze sweeping the world is a wireless audio system...

      NOTICE:  Since the more recent OS upgrades allow most DACs to work*, I'm not planning on trying to keep this table updated.  However, there is still lots of good discussion continuing in the thread, so read on!   * Many of the DACs do require external power, so some people define "work"...

    AKG 702's ARE NOT FOR ME!

    Well, I have had my AKG 702's for a couple of months and although they are great headphones for reproducing sound, for me, thats all it is, just sounds be reproduced, they must have approx 150 hours on them now. Previously I had a pair of Beyer DT 770's and previous to them some Beyer DT...

    Buying Vintage amp - possibly the Marantz 2500? ;) question in thread

    DAC advice requested!

    I'm trying to think of a way to phrase this the whole question as succinctly as possible, but knowing my own self, that is unlikely.   Alright. I'm really looking at a nice desktop DAC so to speak. I've done a fair amount of reading and to be honest, I've made little or no head way towards...
