| Tube DAC, be gentle first time I own a Mytek and enjoy it, but I will echo the MHDT comments as well. It's a really musical piece of gear, and I've loved it every time I heard it. I would wait for one to come up here. | |

| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved I can add you know. You just prey on the poor S.O.B's who can't- for shame!I don't feel any shame in bringing numbers and analysis to the discussion, rather than more "common sense" oversimplifications. Einstein said that common sense was the coll... | |
| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved PettyOfficer, you make a fair point above: Why does everyone here complain more (numerically) than I do, if you already have what you want? Why aren't you happy? Why waste your time here?Why, indeed?My enjoyment of music certainly has little to do... | |
| Coconut Audio = LOL Ah yes, our old friend Patrick82. He's well known on Head-Fi, where his antics have been celebrated for years. I remember some time ago he was cutting up Valhalla power cables and subletting small strips for all conceivable purposes. He also appli... | |

"I'll buy your silver discs when they weigh 180 grams", he would say. "Where will you be when this "laser" die... | |
| Best beer This is, unsurprisingly, not subjective. The best beer ever is Russian River Brewing's "Pliny the Elder". Many other truly fantastic beers have been mentioned, quite a few of which I've had the pleasure of drinking in the past year, either during ... | |
| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved That is good of him :) | |
| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved PettyOfficer, there is no such thing as format competition, nor is there any such thing as a format monopoly. The "CD monopoly" didn't edge out 8 track tapes, nor did the "DVD monopoly" edge out Laserdisc. 8 track and Laserdisc were simply inferio... | |
| Who has found happiness giving up on DACs? Well, he gave one example: the M2Tech Hiface. | |
| Best Integrated Amp for Maggies MG12 Here are two more contenders: Classe Cap-201 and the Plinius 9100. Both seem pretty nice, and come highly recommended by Maggie fans | |
| Best Integrated Amp for Maggies MG12 I'm in a similar boat here, so I'll bump this thread.My budget extends up to $1500, so I've been looking at the Krell KAV series, the Creek Destiny, the NAD C372, and the Unison Unico SE. I'd love for it to have an MM phono stage, but it's not req... |
