I still feel that computer CD readers are not good but I do it might not be ONLY their fault. Most of the today machines have CD-Rom that juts spin too fast and it is imposable to make a CD-Rom to read at 1x speed. There is many custom softwares that...

Well, it happened with me, one of my HH of my DAW, or as they call it “music server”, went down. It does not recognize by BIOS anymore, suck, it would be costly to recover data from there. Partially the most important f...

[quote user="item"]Part of the reason we call our computers 'transports' is to encourage people to think of the number-crunching part of an audio system in the same already familiar terms as a CD player - because all the same things matter: CD tr...

Hi Paul, thanks for your insights.Yes, we have published our results in other forums too. That was a great experience. It was a lot of fun being able to share all that with them. :)[QUOTE][URL=http://www.computeraudiophile.com/f8-general-forum/playcl...

Audio-hoarding is something that I am very thoughtful about. Admittedly I have quite a bit of stuff in storage but it ALL has to do with the current Macondo/DSET build and will soon all be in its place. I don't even own the speakers that I am liste...

Romy, thanks for another nudge toward Bruckner. I was not at all aware of Schuricht before your post, and I do like what I heard of his 8th and 9th via headphones, off the computer, although I realize this is a just thumbnail version. You have said s...

Romy,My DSET amps are still open (no top plate) so are fully ventilated, but I have left vents in the top plate around all of the valves and installed two computer fans (running very low speed) that push air from the bottom and out the vents on the t...

I do not go to 'Audio Shows' but the fact of the people are using Lampizators on this fashion may be because they (Lampizator) are promoting the headamp version of their DACs. Seems almost all of theirs DACs have a headamp version now.My experience w...

I have not found the PPs to completely isolate under many situations although they even out sonics across the day fairly well. The PP is far more steady when hooked into my small tubed bedroom system than the main system, the small TV HT system or th...

Please don't judge all Canadians from the sounds you'll hear there at the show. Be prepared for some very bad 'computer' audio. It was almost everywhere. Well it was so in the past. The only consolation is the food throughout Montreal. It is perhaps ...

I understand the rational to get TL0, even though I would not do it as now if I start fresh. The perspective that I am trying to bring is kind of DAC related, If you get TLO and would go for “ultimate” DAC for that transport then you might discover ...

It is funny how it turns out to be. The listening spot, the 3-sit couch, located at sweet spot is not my favorite place to be nowadays. For sure it offers best sound and for “critical” listening there is nothing then to be at the middle pillow of th...

My journey with computer audio offers me reason to be optimistic. I think it is like everything else in the audio chain. Everything counts. Keep it as simple as possible. The power for every consumer is important. Keep the number of parts and transfo...

That sure looks like an interesting configuration for a change , all right, but are those "ceramic" drivers, or what? Does anyone know?What's with all the "space age" materials these days? I mean, are people actually listening or do they just "...

Sure I am!!!! Just tell me where to get those free transfers hahahaha ;-) Unfortunately I don't have interesting dubs from my local broadcasts as yet to share, but hopefully there will be some soon. Maybe in a couple of months, but don't expect great...

Wojtek, in reality all “problems” that you picked from Paul’s comments are purely inventions of his mind. ML2 is truly “turn and forget” type of amp and it requires no dancing or prying around it. The 6C33C requires some attention when it is new but ...

Being +/- resigned to using BR myself right now, I concur with the idea of "not using" the bin and/or port for significant gain, and especially not to push a driver down to Fs.I don't know the driver being referred to here, but I would recommend taki...
