    FS: Monitor Audio PL 300 - Ebony finish - Mint condition

    Fellow members, I'm considering selling my beloved Monitor Audio PL 300, that I believe need no introduction. If you're looking for excellently built pair of speakers, with high resolution, ease, huge dynamics (thunderous power on the bass frequency range), a high level of transparency and...

    Jeff Rowland Model 6 + BPS-6 - Speaker recommendations

    Hi, I've been an happy owner of Jeff's Model 6's with the battery power supplies for quite some time now. But I'm considering changing my speakers as I believe they've never been the correct match for these amps. I'm also using a rowland pre, more precisely a Synergy IIi that I have intention...

    Light Harmonic's latest: decent DSD/DXD on a budget?

    I'm in for both geeks... Let's see how they'll perform. They're also providing upgrade perks for Femto clocking and linear power supply. Quite an interesting approach to market. Hope to see a more affordable version of the da Vinci dual dac soon.

    Listening impression Auralic Vega

    No one ? Seems like VEGA might lack some pedigree for most of WBF crowd. I was hoping some of the more expert members had tried the vega up against other big name dacs... Mytek had a shoot-out @ WBF... Let's hope for some user experience sharing...

    For Those Naysayers...

    Paaaaaardon me... I thought it was all about the happy announcement of another high resolution music distributor and the quality and the discussion of what we all are consuming... But ok... Don't mind me... No more comments ... on this thread! Congrats Acoustic sounds for your initiative...

    For Those Naysayers...

    ? Was that comment related to my post? If so I don't see why? Weren't we discussing high resolution music distribution? Don't get me wrong... I applaud Acoustic Sounds initiative! I'm certain that the majority of the releases will be of great quality.... But weren't we discussing, once...

    For Those Naysayers...

    I'm not a professional on this industry but looking at mine I think that every distributors would gain quite a lot of customers if: 1- Simply supply information on the provenance of the source material! Do you have any doubts that customers would by more 24/48 music if selled as it is and...

    Wilson Audio Downloads!

    Hi Bruce, I just saw that these recordings are already available on HDT but only as PCM. The sampling frequencies made available suggest that these where converted from a DSD master. Can you confirm? Did you use the Grimm A/D? If so can you tell us if we'll ever have acces to the DSD encoded...

    Listening impression Auralic Vega

    Any WBF readers out there with a Vega @ home? I'd like to know your impressions as well. There are a lot of reviews now of the vega over the web but I would like to know first hand experiences with the vega and its performance against other more "high-endish" DACs such as EMM Labs MA-1...

    DSD comparison to PCM.

    There are also other options on this non ultra-high-end DSD (in terms of price and not necessarily performance) capable dacs that could be taken into account, such as, just to name a few: Exasound e20 Auralic Vega resonance lab invicta Upcoming Ayre QB-9 upgrade for DSD enable And so many...

    DSD comparison to PCM.

    Hi, can anyone confirm if to fully realise the monotonic potential of DSD bitstream it should be converted using a true 1-bit 'bit converter' ? I've been told that only the very first SACD players like the Sony's SCD-1 that I still own employed such device. If that is true, then no matter what...

    Balanced XLR cables/Long Run/Audiophile Grade - but not priced as such

    Has anyone tried the Mogami up against the vovox? On gearslutz several users have claimed superiority of the vovox over the Mogami... On of these days I'm buying a pair of Mogami XLR just to A/B it against my vovox s link and vovox sonorus.

    Help with DAC Selection

    Any results or decisions made? I'm having more or less the same dilemma... Would be great to have as much inputs as possible. And why on earth don't pro and audiophile magazines ever review these new small contenders? Mytek, exasound, Resonessence Labs....?!!

    Mytek Stereo192-DSD DAC

    Bruce, Did you ever got a chance to try out a direct comparison between Mytek 192 DSD and exasound e20? exasound e20 also seems a great "budget" option.... Have you had any contact with e20? I don't live in Canada nor in the US so unfortunately I can't try the 30 day period trial...

    Mytek Stereo192-DSD DAC

    I'm still not quite clear on myteks output balanced design. Can anyone confirm me if this unit is a truly balanced design? Another thing that I'm a bit confused, with my setup, that is with Audionirvana+, I'm not able to have pure DSD (with all kernel bypass on the OS and the so called holly...
