    Preferred aes/ebu 110 ohm digital cable you have tried

    It matters (to me) if one sounds better than the other.

    No, Thank You!

    Wow! I should have stopped giving my time and dedication to this hobby a long time ago. Been doing this audio thing for 40 years and am paid up on all my dues many xxx over. Worked for Radio Shack when I was 16, sold Hi-end while I was getting my education, and have been obsessed with all...

    Tripoint troy signature grounding device

    Whatever.....if it helps to clarify pricing (which is all I was/am trying to do) I paid 10k for the original Troy, and 10k for the Elite. I have no need for two Troy's. My 'deal' was to exchange the old Troy for the 'better' grounding cable. The $2600.00 bill I got was either because Miguel...

    Tripoint troy signature grounding device

    I don't understand your post. Are you saying that I was not told this, or that I am being deceitful? Are you criticizing me for ordering something and not following through, or am I losing something in translation?

    Tripoint troy signature grounding device

    I bought the original Troy about three, maybe four years ago. I paid 10k for it with standard grounding wires. I only thought of it as icing on the cake, nothing more. After I spoke with Miguel about the issues I was having with a cracked top and loose binding post, he covinced me that I had...

    Another ground boxes' competitor ?

    I am expecting delivery on the 'active' version of the SR ground on Monday. It was either buying another upgraded grounding cable for my Troy sig., or for about the same cost adding another/different application toward the same concept. Chassis grounding to Troy, and direct to circuit boards...

    Updated my ref server

    Hi Ken, I have been using a SOtM-200 (now the new Ultra) with the modified ethernet switch (clock) that SOtM offers. I have pretty much maxed out everything wrt linear PSU's, etc, etc., and have always wondered if moving to Win 2016 (from 10 pro, AO., etc.), would yield better sonics. I have...

    FS: Tripoint Troy (original version)

    Rated 6/10. This unit has a hairline crack on top and the wall plug was cut off, so there are bare wires (no termination). The unit can be shipped (at buyers expense) to Tripoint and everything will be looked at by the manufacturer and anything that needs fixing will be repaired at no charge...

    ..my new ride

    I must admit that before I bought my M I drove and fell in love with the AMG C63 but I just didn't want to stretch my budget. That being said the M is a killer car and I was able to get all the extra goodies that I wanted too. Motorcycles, no thank you. Too damn dangerous even if you are a...

    ..my new ride

    In all honesty (as an adult) I have never cast such hardcore general opinions on people based on the cars they drive. On the otherhand although i find the content of what you shared to be mutaually exclusive funny, together I think the humor is somewhat grayed out and something else emerges...

    Yes!! Google BMW M series 1200 mile service. You will be VERY happy with the uptick in performance. Not even close.

    ..my new ride

    When my car went in for the 1200 mile service the dealer confirmed "break-in mode" will be deactivated. Full power and torque are released after the service. The engine and transmission fluid are changed as well as the oil.... It's not just a transitional change! BMW should reprogram the...

    ..my new ride

    That is a beauty! In NY it is illegal to drive without a front license plate. I have been driving various BMW models for many years without, but never got pulled over and cited until I got my M3 last December. $180.00 fine. After being pulled over twice, I broke down and installed my plate...

    Schiit Yggdrasil DAC and MQA

    I downloaded the latest beta version of hqplayer (http://www.signalyst.com/beta-install.html) last week and it has several new filters that are labeled xxxxxMQA. I don't know if these filters even actually decode the MQA file, and if they do, not sure if to the extent that one of these new DACs...

    Since I have the Vinnie R and the JS-2 PSU I tried each one with all the applicable devices, ncluding the external video processor in my HT setup. (Iscan Duo). I prefer the VR PSU to the JS-2 in all applications. My 2 channel system was down for a few days so,I swapped the two PSU's on my...

    Low-cost streamer compares to Aurender

    I sent my GG to Poland about a month ago for a check up. While it was there the new SOtM Ultra was delivered and I have been listening to 512 ever since the GG has been back in the system. I use the Vinnie Rossi 12v PSU for the 200 and the Uptone psu for the router that comes with the modified...
