I don't know yet. Not an easy A/B event, as one amp has SI994's in it (the one with the Nichicon's) and the other has Sparkos. I don't expect much difference as they are just in the power supply, but...

Hello all,

Well my Nord NC500's went kuput. Actually one went, I had it fixed, and when I got it back and put it back in the system the other one was gone! (I have 2 stereo amps using an...

Yeah, I don't have any itch to get rid of mine. Sound quality aside I just leave them on 24/7 and don't have any regrets when I get the hydro bill. Ok, call me not a real audiophile for caring, but...

Wow Kenny pretty open-ended question: "what amp and cables should I get?" but if you like what you have read in this thread I would send an email to Colin at Nord and ask his suggestions as to...

I recall reading a similar post many years ago from a conductor only he was tauting his speakers. I was researching a speaker purchase and he owned Maggie 20.1's. Helped me decide to get my 3.6's: I...

Ah yes, I did see this link to 2L before; haven't gotten around to it yet.

Had no idea Roon didn't support MQA yet and Tidal only unfolds it once. I now don't know how people are listening to...

I have given up comparing for now as the files are completely different, at least with the tracks I did attempt to compare. It is not like comparing a cd version with a remastered cd, or comparing...

Wow, that video from Chord seems to imply that they make the best DAC available. Shocking!:congrats:

Seriously, I have read that Jussi (HQ player dude) suggests that Chord is a DAC that should...

Check out my latest "what are you listening to tonight?" post:
You can see in my Roon signal path I am listening to a Tidal stream of a 24 bit 96Khz file, but I am only getting it unfolded to a 24...

Define "listen"?:

I am streaming MQA through my non-MQA DAC just fine, but I am not decoding it to the highest frequency rate that an MQA DAC does; in MQA language it is only unfolding the file...

I just can't get enough of that Ninet Tayeb guest speaker on that track Pariah. Unique, raspy, sexy yet powerful.
