If you're a cure fan, and you haven't yet, get the reissue of Interesting that the best SQ is on Blu-Ray and DVD. I only have Redbook and streaming. The Cure Anniversary (Smith’s voice & guitar sound amazing) Depeche 101 The Mission UK Live at Shepherd’s Bush ... | |
If you're a cure fan, and you haven't yet, get the reissue of @shtinkydog I just had a listen to the original and it is Horrible. Sounds like a bootleg. What live album do you like best in terms of SQ + performance? | |
If you're a cure fan, and you haven't yet, get the reissue of Thanks. Quality of the original release is pretty blah. | |
If you're a cure fan, and you haven't yet, get the reissue of @shtinkydog Is this a 2 disc release? Or is it a remaster of the 1992. There's no Paris Live remaster on Qobuz yet. | |
Yello - Reel to Reel Sorry, I tried to link to Yello on DR Database, but had problems. The average DR on Stella is 8 although is still worth listening to. | |
Yello - Reel to Reel The 2005 "Stella" CD remaster is highly compressed, as is the download. It would be great if their catalogue was remastered with SQ as a priority. | |
Yello - Reel to Reel Original German pressing must sound excellent. So would a 15 ips dub from the 30 ips master, that’s what I’d like to hear. I’m currently listening to a 2005 remaster on Qobuz. The tipped-up highs are giving me a headache. | |
Bootleg bust That guy who works in a record store didn’t even know who Neil Young is. So cool that Neil was making the rounds to find bootlegs. I love that crazy bastard. Awesome YouTube find. | |
Footers Under Power Conditioners? @markush I didn’t try them. Once i discovered EVP footers from AV Roomservice, I’ve added these to my components. They’re not cheap, $120 apiece. So I cheaped-out and put Herbies Tall Tenderfeet under my 2-box PC. | |
Volume levels Yes, +1 @bigtwin | |
Volume levels Typically, digital sources have higher output gain than that of a TT/phonostage. So when wired to a preamp, the TT's lower gain means you need to turn the volume control higher than digital sources. | |
Sunfire Amp Sunfire 300~two is 2nd generation and uses an IEC inlet with removable cable. The 300s do not have power buttons. The Sunfire 600 uses a detachable PC, no power button. Sunfire Signature 300 & 600 use an IEC. These are later generations and ... | |
Linear Power Supply for a DAC Could end up with lots of boxes and fat cables on my rack, but I am dedicated to having zero switching supplies in my system. So much for all that effort on the part of manufacturers to be energy efficient... Same here. I've been thinking abou... | |
Linear Power Supply for a DAC @mclinnguy I saw the C7 from Audio Sensibility, but went with a Canare DC cable only for the lower cost. I use AS Statement PCs in my system and they are outstanding as far as improved sound, not to mention the build quality. I prefer their perf... | |
Linear Power Supply for a DAC Hi @knownothing I'm using the Swagman SE on a reclocker in my digital chain. I have the iFi SPDIF iPurifier and it's inline with my Node 2i. This iFi device with the stock wall wart provided very little improvement removing jitter and noise. I e... |
