Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC
Ozzy, how are you connecting your 2 Amber Regens (just one to the other?). And can you give a link to the LPS you are using (if it isn't the stock power supply). Thanks. 
Tweaking the Magnepan 1.7s
Cartier450, What kind of pointers did you use? 
Any one compare Dynaudio C1 & Gallo Strada2?
Jdoris. Thanks.I will look into the Selah and Fritzpeakers, but tend to go to better known names, while perhaps not as good, have better re-sale. I've been burned on trying to re-sell obscure gear.The cost of the Strada2's is street about $1,300. ...

Mac Mini vs. Macbook Pro as a server
Herman, one of the advantages of an externalized power supply (linear or otherwise) is to cut down the heat generated in the computer which can a) cause the CPU to slow down, b) turn on the fan (s) if there is one, and c) cause the computer boards...
