..., his system consists of a computer hard drive connected to an "esoteric" valve(!) DAC through some big Dynaudio "test winning" floorstanders. I listened to it the other day, and frankly ... it was terrible! I never get why people like Dynaudios. ... I would rather expect the main reason for a b...

Had mine fixed and the results are massive :D :D :D It is like going from an Exotik with a little polished sound to an absolutely magic preamp. Is this really the case? I have hard to believe that the wrong cble directions can make a KK sound ike an Exotic. I do believe that it makes a noticable di...

I doubt the lenght difference between EAC-flacs and RS-flacs are only due the silent part at the beginning of the song - it seems too big infact. Well this is the only difference I have found when comparing the RS-FLAC->WAV and EAC-FLCA->WAV files. However, depending on what kind of signal processi...

Here's a thought... Does the Tune-Dem criteria apply to setting up PA systems and stage amps - both position and EQ used? From some of the dire results I've heard, I would say it does. 'Troll Certainly! Anyhow the goal when setting up and tuning a PA is to maximize the systems ability to comunicate...

If a Klimax DS is not clearly outperforming a Undisk 1.1, Akurate CD, Akurate DS or even a CD12, surely something is wrong! At its best it should be in the same league as a top LP12. I am shocked that the dealers representative, when installaing, did not notice that the system was not performing as ...

gotta agree with Klimax Kontrol also nominating Keel Keel is also already listed... You have all listed really good products such as Kan, Troika or the Klimax Kontrol, but were they really THAT "gobsmacking"? I do not know I you feel, but in my opinion such a list kind of looses its relevance if to...

About ripping, I've compared some flac files ripped with both Ripsattion and EAC (Linn profile). The files ripped with EAC sound better by a good margin. Moreover, I've tried ripping with EAC using two different PCs (and consequently CD drivers). The result is not the same, infact the flac files cr...

Each of the following products represented (in my opinion) a major performance step for any Linn system or has marked themselves as (more or less) legendary (LP12, Isobarik, CD12, ...): LP12 (no kidding :wink: ) Isobarik (active!) Lingo Briliant power supply (switch mode power supply upgrade for Kai...

I think it would be most appropriate if the dealers and/or Linn would clearify theese issues!

(Hi everyone and especially Fredrik for (in my opinion) your waluable contribution to the music reproduction community!) Is it possible that the difference (between different rip:s) depends on how fast the DS gets enough buffered data i.e. smaller files are faster to distriute especially on slower c...
