Very good indeed, Mike.

....anyone remember the quote: “Audiophiles tend not to use their system to listen to music, but to use music to listen to their systems.”

This debate forfeits the...

I do like analogue, for the sound and old-fashionness of it.

So I’m with Mikey, I do greatly enjoy his writings and insights.

I understand the point about originality of the initial issue, but I was bored out of my mind trying to listen to it.

Definitely enjoy the un-original much more.

Your point on buffering for error correction is accurate. But even when buffered (what e.g. some CD players do as well), the signal remains an analog audio signal, and everything that applies to...

Being a telecoms guy, this is what I also thought. But investigating it, I discovered it’s unfortunately not the case. It’s correct, that data files move as packets. Audio streaming, however, is...

Guess it does the same thing as a Gigafoil, but in a more compact package.

Very entertaining indeed [emoji3].

But it’s difficult to understand why any guitar player would attempt to play ZZ Top with a strat copy. It just sounds anemic. Billy Gibbons plays Dean Guitars...

Interesting device.

But of course the related interesting question is whether you get your money’s worth buying this, instead a regular IT box.

But then again, some people happily pay 25K for...

Really cool album: 88 Basie Street/ Count Basie & His Orchestra, incl. Herb Ellis on guitar. A real gem.

This is very typical: hyperbole on both ends. The ones say any system is useless without it, the others say I’m an engineer and I can’t measure any difference.

Maybe we should go back to the...

Agreed. Probably more a dance/ disco album than really electronica.

Another option is the Aqvox, which is a modified D-Link box.

Very nice indeed.

But how are you attaching the pedestals to the top plate?

Well, Radom Access Memories made them millions. It topped the charts in 20 countries, made platinum, and got them Grammys in several categories, incl. Album of the Year and Best Dance/ Electronica...

I found the version before the fix quite slow. Now it seems to be normal again.

Khin, I think they’re really cool. And, I could see myself owning DB9-S’s as well.

Another Craft Recordings re-issue, again stellar quality: Cookin’ with the Miles Davies Quintet.

A turn-side of my vinyl setup appears to be, that you really hear significant differences in vinyl...

There’s are a pretty good DAC and a phono pre he’s recently released. Highly praised in reviews.

Had to try out some Craft Recordings. Creedence Clearwater Revival/ Chronicle. Great SQ, much better than the original from the 70’s I have.

My favorite CCR album anyway, every track’s great. ...

Good point, possibly. To me it looked like he made a statement, and added the link as a source.

Whichever, hardly tenable.

Sorry, but that comment is total bollocks. Atkinson does not state any such thing in the measurements section.

Also, you are confusing current and power. He states the M2 demands a high level of...
