| Ess Sabre Dacs My understanding is that the new John Westlake designed Audiolab players use ESS DAC chips.They seem pretty intriguing for sure, 5 inputs including asynch USB and a clock locked transport as well.8200CD and 8200CDQ are the models I think, the CDQ ... | |
| Best speaker cable for Acoustic Zen's Adagios +1 for Hologram II, I contacted the company when I bought mine to see what the recommended match was and Silver Ref II interconnects and Hologram II speaker cables were said to be the best options. I have been running this way for a couple of year... | |

| Spacers for Rega P3 Are you using a Rega cartridge? If so, then you should not need a spacer. Any other brand of cartridge would likely require 2mm or more. | |
| Volume Settings on Squeezebox Touch and other ??? You can check the Squeezebox touch forum on the Slimdevices website to confirm but I'm pretty sure that there is no way to lock the volume at 100% like you can on the SB3. The only way to do it is to leave the volume at 100% and that's it.As far a... | |
| LFD vs Blue Circle I've had an LFD NCSE for a couple of years now(since it was introduced) and have no plans to change or upgrade. All I can say is that there is a reason why so few come up used.It is likely that the LEIII has outsold any BC integrated by a consider... | |
| Logitech Squeezebox Touch DAC: How Good? I just transferred a 96/24 wave file from my PC to a USB stick and popped into the back of my touch. It takes a few minutes to figure out how to switch from your main library to the USB but when I had that part sorted out it lit up as being 96k on... | |
| Favorite HDMI cable under $100/M? I am using an LG BH200(BD/HDDVD)>LG 50PC5D. Nothing fancy but I recently tried a couple of Neotech HDMI cables and was surprised by the improvement. There were a lot of issues I was having with what they call "black crush" that were really impr... | |
| Suggestions for a good phono stage I have heard the Blackbird through the Slee Era Gold V and the sound is great but I have preferred every low output MC that I have tried through the Elevator/Era Gold V. The Blackbird/Era Gold V combo seemed to be just a touch shy on gain. I did t... | |
| WD TV - has anyone tried one yet? Have not tried it but know people who are using these units with good success. Definitely going to pick one up in the near future for HD downloads of TV programs. Figure it's a much better way to go versus paying for cable if you don't have intere... | |
| Finding a little warmth from Benchmark1 USB DAC Trying out a Lavry DA10 would likely be a decent consideration as well. I had an original DAC1 a few years back and I would characterize the Lavry as being more rich sounding while still being quite detailed and accurate as well. I definitely find... | |
| Blu-Ray movies Baraka is excellent both in terms of picture and sound quality. It also lends itself to showing off certain chapters which works well for demo material. Wall-E, is quite good for an animated feature as well. For music, the Dave Matthews/Tim Reynol... | |
| Basis Vector Setup-Am I missing anything? Just as an update here, I was able to get this up and running this morning. All that was really required was a weight for the front of the tonearm to balance out the heavy counterweight that I picked up from a local dealer and it worked like a cha... | |
| Basis Vector Setup-Am I missing anything? Marty, your suggestion sounds like it would work fine. Since this morning, I have discovered that the arm that I have has a "Heavy" counterweight which I have determined is the main issue regarding VTF. It must be designed to use with cartridges 1... | |
| Basis Vector Setup-Am I missing anything? Thanks for the response. I can't quite get my head around a complete upgrade and changeover at the moment. I thought that maybe they had a different base for the arm to mount on other types of tables but it seems that is not the case. Having to us... |
