Looks like Deezer either does, or soon will offer high quality flac files...

Thanks Scubadude, I have seen that review, it is with the HD650's and they seem to be more bass heavy than the 600's so the 600's should be just right!  :) certainly worth a listen... looking forward to it

Ok, Thomas, so assuming I've bought your Little Dot Mk V  :)... The next step is to upgrade the cans... I'm thinking Sennheiser HD600's? From what I read, the Nad d1050 if anything tends to bring out the bass a little, and it sounds as though the HD650's tend a little that way too, so maybe the...

That actually brought tears to my eyes as I wrote it, thinking about my Dad (passed about 12 years ago) and his influence on my musical tastes  :)

My kids definately are influenced by my musical tastes, fortunately my tastes are quite varied, from rock to classical. If there's one thing that I'm proud of passing on to my kids is my love of music and a broadmindedness to listen to any type of music and judge it not on whether it's new and...

Hi, If one was interested in upgrading the op amp/s in the Fubar IV Plus, how would you go about it, is it difficult? And where would you look for the Burson Audio V3? Is that the best upgrade?

Anyone else using Kodi for audio playback. I have all my music on a NAS, I am thinking to use Kodi to control playback, either to a Marantz AV Receiver (for general background listening) or to NAD D1050 DAC for more critical listening, either through speakers, but mostly through headphones. I...

Thanks Chrisc for the reply, I think I'll try give Kodi a go before trying the others. Have in the past tried both Foobar and JRiver trials, but ended up with iTunes. Does anyone know of a good online resource for setting up Kodi for audiophile sound?

Hi, I have just bought a media player that is able to run Kodi. Does anyone have experience of it, how does it compare to iTunes, Foobar,i-river etc

As pwatts says - "While it's sad for the socio-economic impact of closing the UK plant, nostalgia and the brand itself, the product is only likely to gain from this." I think that's it, it's all about the brand, the old British and American Brands have so much tradition of manufacture...

Does his book cover placement of Electrostatics?

Thanks Achim... At least it's not another classic brand lost, there is some hope...

That really is sad, the first decent audio I bought for myself was Tannoy speakers, the 6 series I think they were, the 6 sided cabinet ones, paired with Rotels 930 amp and 9 series CD player for the total cost of around R6k with some moderately decent cables thrown in for 'free'... sounded...

Hi, I have in the past done Black Ash, just use real Ash veneer, Mitre Veneering do all types of veneer, then stain it black with spirit stain, then plenty coats of polyurethane with sanding in between ' til you get the finish you want.

Yayy.... that's great, I never win!! :)

I see that was from 2013, does anyone know how it's going with them?

Wow, That is an interesting story... who would have thought?

Hi, Anyone else using Fubar IV Plus or similar and tried the Firestone Audio power supply, I see it's R1650 device was wondering if it's a worthwhile upgrade, or would it be better to take the cash plus what I can get for the Fubar IV and buy something else?

Liked.... and holding thumbs!  :)

I thought I read somewhere that it only supported 96khz via the USB and not 192khz, but it seems I was wrong.
