CD transport vs streamer?
I have just updated to the new 7.3.3 firmware. Not sure if its my imagination but there seems to be a slight improvement in the details now....

I am using iTunes with apple lossless and i have set the digital vol control to max on the squeezebox and squeezecentre. 
CD transport vs streamer?
Thanks guys. I will certainly try recording in FLAC and then compare the difference. Hope to have some time this weekend to do it and will feedback. I suppose if there is an improvement, then FLAC with a transporter may even be better.I have an al...

CD transport vs streamer?
Has anyone here tried sticking an Apple Mac using the optical miniplug output straight into the DAC? Wondering if this more direct connection would outperform streaming 
CD transport vs streamer?
Hi PerrewI have written on another thread that I have tried the Weiss combo straight into my Pass X-1000 and previously had a GNSC statement modded 270/27 into Krell FPB600. Preferred the sound with a preamp in (i have the ARC Ref 3)in both cases.... 
How good of a DAC is the Logitech Transporter
From my reading of other people's reviews (no personal experience with transporter myself), the use of the transporter seems to outperform a DAC in the 2-3K region. It is probably a bit unfair to compare it to the weiss combo as it is a lot more c...

Hi PerrewI tried running SB3 into the Medea DAC. Jason is purely a transport and I run that also into the Medea. I have also set the SB as bare as possible and still the failure of the SB3 to retrieve the finer details and the failure to potray th... 
How good of a DAC is the Logitech Transporter
Hi Richard,I have people telling me that the Weiss Minerva DAC is a good device to consider, which allows output via firewire from the MAC to the DAC. But at just under $5000 its a pretty expensive option especially for those of us who already own... 
How good of a DAC is the Logitech Transporter
Would appreciate your advice on the settings of the itunes and MIDI. Did not realise that this could affect the sound. The big difference I am getting on SB3 vs my dedicated CD player is the loss of ambience and space. Playing jazz at the pawnshop... 
How good of a DAC is the Logitech Transporter
Hi RickI was just writing on another thread that the Squeezebox 3 vs my Weiss Jason CD player into my Weiss Medea was very disappointing. Some people have suggested using an antijitter device between the computer and DAC. Have you found the Transp... 
Synergy between AR Ref 3 and Pass X amps
Amongst solid state amps, any recommendations on what i should audition that would go with the ref 3s? 
Synergy between AR Ref 3 and Pass X amps
On a different note, again focusing on the X-1000, I had a chance to do an A/B of the X-1000 vs Krell Evo 1 fed through a krell evo 2 (non-cast on both to keep it fair). The Krell was better mainly on its ability to project images with greater sol... 
connectng CD player directly to amp, good or bad?
My personal experiences:1. Stuck a GNSC statement modded 270/27 straight into Krell FPB 600. Never got on with the sound. Steve Huntley recommends they got pre-ampless.2. Later upgraded to Weiss Jason/Medea and also stuck into FPB 600. Improvement...
