I had that cassette of Dio (I had his first four albums in that format). Good times! And I still have a couple of cassette players in a closet

Cassettes and players I no longer have but I do have a Rega78 plus several hundred 78rpm records, the oldest recorded on only one side and weiging close to a half pound recorded in 1908

Guys i have a question
i have a dac with a volume and an amp with volume obvious
should i max the volume on my dac and adjust volume from my Amp?
or dac volume can be bypassed?

just off to the side of my head-fi station is the cable rack. I have thinned the collection a few times but it still keeps growing.

Depends. When you use an amp the DAC volume control is usually bypassed. Try to turn the volume on the DAC while listening and see if it has any effect.

Sure, but the insane prices of these aftermarket cables make you think if you sold 80% of them what new headphones/amps/DACs you could buy.

Financial pain was slightly dulled by purchasing most of these secondhand here on head-fi.

I was actually referring to the cable organisation

I know. I did the same with my Toxic Silver Widow. But still a lot of money for the relatively small improvement they bring.

As much as I love seeing all the awesome high dollar stuff the rest of y'all have, I figured I'd show off my humble set up. I have some pretty great stuff and I have managed to not spend more than $100 on any particular piece of kit.
