Rogue Metis vs. Emotiva USP-1
I think I've gathered enough positive info in this thread to give this little guy a test drive. Has anyone played with the phono stage yet? I'd love to plug in a turntable I'm selling off my Theta Casablanca-I and hoping this emotiva pre won't be ... 
Latest iPod Configuration -- Any New Hope?
Hi Guys,I have my I-pod fully load now with 18 gig out of my cd collection. I haven't had any major problems yet. Personally I just except the i-pod for what it is. I don't expect the sound to be that great, but as far as the over all experience i...

Latest iPod Configuration -- Any New Hope?
Hi Folks, I just got my I-pod a few days ago so I'm way behind on the tech talk. I started loading songs from CD to i-tunes, then over to the ipod. After i loaded about 40 cd's I erased them off I-tunes as not to bog down my comupter. The next tim... 
Mit cable question
I'll vouche for Joe (Not that he needs it) he's forgotten more about MIT than most of us will ever know. We've done business in the past too and his prices are some of the best around. 
Upgrade from Theta Data Basic II Transport - CEC?
I've had a few Theta transports over the years. My last switch was from a DaViD to a Carmen-II Of course this piece is also used for DVD sourcing to my H/T system but stands up very nice as a cd transport. I use Superior Dac's in my Casa Blanca II...

Biggest "Bang for the Buck" in an AES/EBU cable
The Kimber Orchid has been the most sought after cable for years, I use to own one and it was sweet. Most of the high end critics have agreed this is the best interconnect. 1.5 meter is the recommended length for a digital cable. (Something to do ... 
Mit cable question
I would recommend you match your interconnect cables to your speaker cables. If your in the Oracle line now you should stay in that line. MIT seems to work at it's best when matched to similar cables from the same line. I once thought about cablin... 
Hissing/distortion from only my right speaker
Almost sounds like a blown tweeter if you ask me, Try to isolate the driver that's causing the problem. At low volume cup the driver with your hands and put your ear up to it to figure out if one is blown. Hey this has happened to me several times...
