| Battery powered front end I've been using battery power for my front end for several months. Everything has improved including surprisingly the bass. I'm using Exceltech xp1100 inverter which from research has the lowest THD if any inverter out there. Batteries are Lifepo4... | |
| Battery Power at a Price Point I leave my inverter on all the time. If I turn it off for any length of time, it seems to take a few hours or more to sound good. My preamp has a stby mode so I'm assuming it is keeping all the caps fully charged in stby. I monitor the battery vo... | |
| Battery Power at a Price Point I feel the exeltech xp series inverter is the one to use in a hifi setup. Has the cleanest sinewave in the industry. I use the xp1200 and no I'm not affiliated with exeltech. Lol | |

| Upgrade DAC recommendation I have a mac c2600, been using the internal dac streaming from a bluesound node 2i. Also occassionally listen to the node 2i dac analogue outputs. I thought it couldn't get much better. Then I got the bug and started auditioning some dacs. Chord h... | |
| Herron VTSP-2a vs EAR 324 dhcod, I don't know anything about the mm section but when using the mc section I didn't hear much of a difference between settings until I realized there is a small pushbutton on the back of the ear that engages and disengages the transformers. A... | |
