Compare Between Few Dacs
Bhobba: First, I want to say thank you. It was your comments I read in a post a while ago that led me to the purchase of my Metrum. I love it and actually prefer it to the Weiss Minerva I had at five times the cost. I have a few questions regardin...

Most "Musical" sounding speaker cable under $1000
If I may chime in, Crimson is by far the best cable I've had in my system. The Crimson speaker and interconnects have bested my previous Kimber Selects and Nordost Tyrs in every conceivable way. Everything sounds more natural and organic. Many tim...

Looking for DAC suggestions

heard Melody Gardot?
Ok. I saw Melody last night. It was the third time I had the pleasure of hearing her perform live. However, of the three shows, this was my least favorite. First, she is a beautiful woman and she was covered up all night from head to toe. Somethin...

Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC
Eugene81: Forgive me if you've already mentioned this, but what USB/spdif converter are you using? I had the Mach2Music HiFace2 but ultimately returned it because I was getting "clicks and pops" during playback. According to the advice of some mem... 
What is the best sounding DAC at $2000-$4000?
Almarg: Thanks again but I couldn't find anything. I'm using PurMusic for playback. I went through PureMusic's menus in "preferences" and couldn't find anything about buffer size. I'm not that knowledgeable about computers and software. I don't wa... 
What is the best sounding DAC at $2000-$4000?
Thanks Almarg, but the same thing happened. Nothing but blank pages. I have a Mac. I don't know if that has anything to do with my inability to view the pages. Also, I sent an email to Mach2Music a few months ago. After a couple of months they fin... 
What is the best sounding DAC at $2000-$4000?
Audioengr: I never received instructions for the HiFace2. When I tried to download the owner's manual, every page was blank. Do you know how to do it?
