[quote user="TonyB"]How about expanding the D-War and comparing the CEC transport and a PC feeding the Bidat? It should not be that difficult to rip a few CD's onto a PC. I would LOVE to hear the comparison. Using a PC would have a few advantages if ...

Hi,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]it is highly possible that you are correct but it was exactly the point of my in initial post - the people worship the clock upgrades but 99% of then just throw in the new clocks, or do exactly what I did. [/quote]And I ...

Yes, the enclosure something like this, thanks for tip, miab, but it opens a door for desire more. A good box with fanless operation, 1920 x 1200 pixels touch-screen, 6 hard-drives, remoter control, $650 price tag is very good beginning. W...

[quote user="Paul S"]Interesting that problems Harley isolated in this case (pits and lands; turntable) were physical/mechanical, utimately "analog", in that sense. I'm glad someone has stayed after it, but not sure how to put this revelation to work...

[quote user="xandcg"]For power supplies, a possible quick solution would be to get a Komputer, but just the power supply and the box adapted for your board. Their (Lampizator) power supplies are reportedly to be very good. The price can always be neg...

I do not know what happen between amplifier and speaker but I think matching of amplifier and speaker is one of the most important things is audio.
matching is not just about dynamics/driving or having enough power , it is about perfec...

A visitor of my site that I know personally just called me informing me that he was very impressed with placing his air-bearing CD transport on Silent Running Audio platform:

To my big surprise the Pacific tuned out to be an absolutely wonderful 16-bit DAC - the only one that migh compete with by Bidat. It does not go into max weigh of lowest end as some other best converters do but it has such an interesting and reach “e...

OK, now it looks like that I finally finalized my first experimental draft of FM recoding setup. The AD122, outputting the 24/96 stream, into PC’s uncompressed WAV files via Lynx 16 interface. For the time being I decide to use the DA924 as D/A. With...

[quote user="xandcg"]Amir,If you are looking for a transparent DAC and it could have a built-in preamp, you may want to take a look on:Merging + NadacNadac Player, same but a built-in music server (or something).I did not listened to them, but at lea...

After 4 days of suiting in boxes in my listening room today is my day off and I decided to dedicate it to play with the new Pure Power 3000+.
I desired to use just records and connected all amps, preamps and phonostage to ol...

I have a problem with navigation on your site so I probably missed the post explaining why preamp should bare the response for absolute transparency ?You reserve the right for the amp to inject an X factor and the sources can do what they wi...

Sure I did. The WaveLab is not good reader at all. I was converting CD to WAV file with EAC and the played it from EAC and from WaveLab – it was not good in both cases. In fact WaveLab is very bad for any file manipulations: change rate, change resol...

[quote user="rowuk"]In live music, we have intermodulation. Two trumpets or a trumpet and oboe playing together create sum and difference tones that change depending on pitch interval for instance. For music in major keys, this intermodulation is add...

As I told before I picked recently a new interesting DAC and I got for it some AES/EBU cables. That made me to make the same Bidat vs. Lavry experiments only to use the AES/EBU interface with Lavry Gold. During those experiments I did not use S...

Srajan have mentioned at his News Page (the only resource worth reading at his site) that a new CEC TL1N transport and CEC DX1N DAC become available, well available in civilized countries like Poland not in the countries were the fucked up distributo...

Mani, I did find it was strange that you were getting from insulation transformer better result then from PP2000. They are very different devises with very different results. The difference is like to play a CD from an audio output of a consumer $50 ...

I do not know. People say a lot of words about jitter and speculate a lot about the topic. I never heard from anyone any real definition how a high level of jitter sounds in realty. I heard 4 (!!!!) complete contradictory descriptions how high level ...

I can not convince myself that "Transport reads data as apple and CD rom reads data as orange". if I have seen this claim in another forum then I could not believe it .we know EAC and dbpoweramp and other secure audio cd ripping softwares have CRC co...

A site’s visitor today send me a kink to:

He advised: “The output board in TL0 is exactly the same as TL1”. I wonder if anybody else tried it. I do not have a lot...

Did I tell you that Pacific Microsonics DAC is a phenomenal 16-bit DAC? I did not lie and it is very good. Look however what the updated Lavry 924++ did with it.
They are very short and small (6Meg) files, mono, 88/24 with a few seconds of opening o...

[quote user="Maarten"] I will compare them, and I will also rip both the normal CD's and the SHM ones, to see if they are identical at the bit level. [/quote]
Maarten,
I am afraid that bit level comparing would be absolutely worthless exercise, sim...

I’m involved now in a VERY interesting project that leads me to ask a strange question: did anyone ever research the subject of those Hi-Fi Mini Systems? What I need is a small source of FM and CD in a one small “comfy” box. I do not need that CD to ...

It is good that a largest CD manufacturer have declared that CDs are dead – now perhaps it is a good time for the industry to learn how to make decently sounding CDs. It is ironic how much nose the stupid industry created about the inferiority of 16/...
