| Mac Mini USB output sounds "garbled" I found out what was wrong. Go into iTunes, then click window. Then click "Equalizer". This next part is the key.....make sure equalizer is OFF. Just to be sure, turn preamplifier down to 0db, but absolutely turn off EQ. This fixed my problem. If ... | |
| Mac Mini USB output sounds "garbled" Jax2: I'm using a Cambridge Audio DacMagic. I'm running USB 2 out of the Mini into USB 1 in the DacMagic. I will try the toslink next. | |
| Trade offs? "If you want more of your cd's to sound less harsh, then I suggest moving toward a less resolving system...." WHAT?!?!?! Tvad: Do you really think that someone should totally reconfigure their system to accomodate "harsh" sounding cd's, instead of... | |

| Mapleshade cables?? v Anti Cables Anti-cables sound wonderful. Not only do AC's sound great, but they're rediculously cheep as well. However, they are as stiff as coat hangers and are, in my opinion, difficult to work with. Try DNM. Around the same price, easier to handle, and mor... | |
| Recommendations for solid core speaker wiring? By the way Usblues: If you realy want to hear outstanding cable that also happens to be solid core, check out my Crimson's. | |
| Recommendations for solid core speaker wiring? Anit cables "...are the easiest of all to use". Now that is "sarcastic to the max". | |
| Recommendations for solid core speaker wiring? DNM cable. I must say, I've owned the anti-cables(note past tense). They sound wonderful, however not practical AT ALL.
