I have four ecc88 cool valves from European Audio Team with less than a thousand  hours on them. Looking to sell them as a unit. In addition they are diamond grade. This may be outside your ballpark, but they are supreme.

Very interesting. Thank you for posting. Always wondered about the possibility of infinite resolution recording without physical wear on the playback medium. Practically laserdisc probably got the closest although there has recently been mathematical progress in the digital domain on...

So the ripper is not outputting proper DSD then, but some kind of resampled PCM.

You initially said - The default is 88.2KHz 24 bit, but with a bit more work, you can get a 96KHz 24 bit copy.  Its fairly time-consuming That is PCM. Please help me understand? DSD is not a fixed time domain sampling rate. Sorry I am selfish and using your time, I am only trying to get my head...

So these players (3) output a dsd file?

Could someone with experience please share more here i.e. diffs between sacd and hybrid sacd etc. There is obviously also the mastering process which might have been high bit rate pcm. I just feel there is something to be had more generally with regards cd ripping - cd drives don?t allow raw...

Gotta luv it, audio-files speak their own language. Sorry private joke for the cognoscenti...

I thought all CD?s sold in S.A. were SACD?s... Interesting that Sonyguts never budged on this legally even with the advent of DSD files.

Thanks, I really wasn?t aware of that. Here is a video Youtube of how to use a Magsafe connector with a linear power supply https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B3w8nwyrdYw

Get yourself a linear power supply from green cubed energy and power the laptop from that.

Yes, agreed. There is a lot of nonsense out there usb is usb and digital is digital. What may be the case though is that noise coming through from a computer interferes mostly with the clock in a dac which is very sensitive because this is the point at which digital becomes analog. Before that...

Holy crap, I wonder if smoking those crystals will expand your mind... Seems a lot like AJ vand der Hul?s magnetic bracelets that cure all illness.

This really is small change compared to the packet processing overhead involved with usb.

The concept of jitter doesn?t apply to usb, it is an asynchronous bidirectional protocol.

Clearly you didn?t follow the logic, why if the usb isolation is 100% effective would cleaner power on the nuc make a difference? If it iis 100% whatever noise there is on the nuc side would not matter and a battery or power supply  would sound identical.

Well if there is usb isolation and a battery still makes a difference that proves that the usb isolation is not 100% effective because else it would have been agnostic to how the nuc is powered. Hence should one not  additionally look at means of draining rf emi?

.net or .net core? If the latter, you wouldn?t need wine.

And now that you are running a floating ground where is rf and emi drained too?

People, somebody smart enough to make the kind of money to buy this is also smart enough to know that it year on year can be used for tax rebates, suitably depreciated. Even if it just stands there is no point in flogging it on the second-hand market. Dream on guys.
