40+ watts SET, cost is not a problem
wavac 833 if cost is no constraint  
Benefits of adding a 10MHz Master Clock to a digital system
So you are just sounding off rather than trying to meaningfully contribute to the discussion, aren’t you?  
Tweaking Etherregen
I only have the audio,connection; yet the additional grounding in my case materially increases resolution  
Benefits of adding a 10MHz Master Clock to a digital system
@botrytis  A clear case of designer myopia: it’s not just the dac conversion that benefits from reclocking but the real benefits come from synchronised reclocking of the ethernet input signal, USB link and conversion, i.e. three separate steps. T... 
New Network Acoustics Tempus switch
It‘d be interesting to compare this to an InnuOS Phoenix Net or an Etherregen with precision clocking and LPS. Anyone care to comment?  
Absorption of digital hash
I put shungite between tubes and tranformers on my Wavac EC300b as well as on top of all my power supply transformers. Clarity and Impulse!  
Absorption of digital hash
+1 on shungite, @mahgister is right  
ENGLISH ELECTRIC EE-1 High-performance network noise isolator ? Yay or Nay?
@lloyd1969  I‘d suggest to use it even before the route, alternatively between router and switch is a good place, too. Pink Faun suggests to use it directly into the streamer and as each system reacts differently tryong it out everywhere is the b... 
Dog pissed on speaker
…as to potential buyers: how about someone into dogging?  
Dog pissed on speaker
How about getting doggy to piss on the other one, too? You might get a whizzer cone into the bargain….  
It's your streamer, not your modem
cable is inherently noisy and using isolators and switches to clean it up has proven effective widely. It isn’t just the streamer’s buffering, EMI/RFI and ground level noise do corrupt signals beyond most DAC’s cleanup capabilities and reclocking ... 
How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you?
@phd  At 102db efficiency may I suggest you try SETs rather than push pulls? You might be in for a big surprise. A classic 300b amp will amply drive those speakers unless they have a weird impedance pattern  
How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you?
@deep_333  My comment relates to the high wattage, complex crossover+DSP school of engineering. I have yet to hear a system built that way that offers true timbre and time allignment of its various components. Flea watt amps are not a must but ma... 
How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you?
Usually low efficiency means complex crossovers. The issues of cross interference, phase coherence and latency resulting from multiple transducers compaerd to a two way, ideally point source in my mind are too complex to solve. That’s why flea amp... 
InnuOS Sense 2.6.0.
@bluethinker  You may experience digital clipping. Try and turn down the volume on the server and up on the dac by using the sense volume bar. Hopefully that helps.
