NuForce STA 200 It's been over 30 days since I purchased the STA200 and I've ironed out some issues with my system. I had been using an Apple TV 3rd gen via the optical output to the NAD M51 DAC and switched to the USB input connected to an old Windows laptop.The... | |
NuForce STA 200 Jetter - I previously ran a Schiit Sys with Paradigm Active 40 v2 and Active 450LR and it is a good deal for $50. The hot in the highs can probably be attributed to the Doge pre and Genalex tubes. Attenuation of the signal is not an issue as the N... | |

Have DAC’s improved for Redbook CD playback? I think the biggest improvement modern DACs have made over older DACs is reduced jitter. Most DAC designs nowadays implement some sort of jitter correction. | |
Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound? MHDT Havana or Paradisea+ | |
NAD M51 remote control You can use any IR learning remote. I'm using a Sony RM-VL600. | |
Can anyone recommend a great tube preamp that also has a headphone out? Decware CSP2/CSP2+/CSP3 | |

Best budget DAC A few people mentioned the ZDAC and I disagree with that recommendation. I picked one up for $300 a while back and sold it after a few months. It was replaced by an Arcam irDAC which I purchased off Ebay for $409 (there was a seller in Italy who s... | |
best transparent pre amp George knows what's up. Drop $60 on a Schiit Sys passive preamp and see how you like it. | |
Need integrated amp with built-in USB DAC Purchase a Behringer UCA202 to add optical out via USB to the Mac. Then you can get a unit with a toslink optical connection. You'll have way more options going that route than restricting to ONLY units that have USB.http://www.amazon.com/Behringe... | |
Tube upgrade options for Dodge 8 preamplifier? I own a Doge 8 and installed Genalex Gold Lion 12AT7 tubes. I've been running the GL tubes in preamps for ~4 years and have always enjoyed their sound. They are very well balanced and fairly well extended on the high and low end. Bass is not overl... | |

What's the greatest bargain in DAC's these days? Thank you for the tip on the Parasound ZDAC. I picked one up from Audio Advisor along with a Schiit Sys passive preamp and this thing sounds fantastic for the money. I was looking for a DAC for a second system and was also considering the Nuforce ... |
