USB Cable Ridge Street Audio/Synergistic Research
I too am very curious if a better quality USB cable will make an improvement since i am in the process of downloading my entire collection to an external hardrive. That being said, is it just going from your computer to an external DAC that will m... 
Ripping Speed? Wave Files/Sound Quality
Thanks Mlsstl!Yeah after i posted my concern i switched to "secure" mode ripping which is suppose to do what you mention. It slows down the ripping speed to 1/2 but i think it is worth it to make sure i achieve accurate transfer. I only had one fi... 
Long Run From Computer to Stereo
Thanks for your response by the way Sunjitwhy! The cable that i am using, that was just built for me, is Canare GS-6 cable, which i believe is used for microphone cables. So i am assuming it is balanced? My other question is, i have the ability on... 
Long Run From Computer to Stereo
Sunjitwhy, i am not sure if the outputs are 1/4" balanced or not. They are 1/4" though. I did receive the long cable that i ordered from Bayoucables a few days ago with the 1/4" and RCA ends. I guess it took some time for that cable to break in be...

Long Run From Computer to Stereo
Well i had gone ahead and ordered the long run(37') of Canare GS-6 from Bayoucables (with G&H gold 1/4" outs and RCA plugs in) to run out analog over to my stereo. I am not set up for balanced operation unfortunately i don't believe unless i a... 
TWEAKS for PC USB DAC SETUP
And also i am really liking the very USABLE effects section for some added ambience to live shows i have downloaded that are a tad dry.The eq section is also very nice and usable as well for the same application (live downloaded shows) that seem t... 
TWEAKS for PC USB DAC SETUP
Ok i just went ahead and downloaded the J River Media Jukebox 12. It prompted me through some things and i think i made the right decisions but time will tell. But just imported all of the music files on my computer into it and am listening to it ...
