He arranged delivery of his favorite, the Sonore Signature Music Server (MSRP $2499) and Signature Power Supply ($2199).
Sonore is a boutique hi-fi component manufacturer based in Miami Lakes, Florida, which specializes in digital gear.
The new mbl Corona CD Player C31 ($9200) came along because it accepts up to 24-bit 96kHz Lpcm data on TosLink, S/PDIF, and asynchronous USB "natively."
My Accuphase DP-600 does not support these inputs.
Yes, that's right: Your eyes are not deceiving you. The exaSound e20 display above is highlighting the fact that the e20 is the first consumer stereo DSD DAC that can handle Quad DSD (256fs, sometimes denoted DSD256).
Here 'tis…11.28MHz DSD at your fingertips!
The performance gap between my Electra Print amplifier and the Millenia amplifier has rapidly closed, as the latest cluster of improvements that Jan has devised for the TBI amplifier has effectively erased the largest flaws from the previous generation amplifier.
When I've read most cable reviews (up to this point), what I've come away with is that they are essentially a variable "Tone Control", subtly changing the presentation one hears through speakers (or headphones).
I have largely avoided writing about cables. I have written one cable review that has been published, that being back in Listener Magazine, around 1999 or maybe 2000. I have largely avoided cable reviews for a few good reasons. At least I think they are good reasons.
When I first saw the coldness and the stark experience of loneliness on the cover art of James Blake's sophomore LP, Overgrown, I knew there was going to be something different about this record.

Partner and Editor of Positive Feedback Online but full-time NBCT 6th Grade Public School Teacher (LAUSD) to pay the bills. On the other hand I really do love teaching and working with kids.
My Audio System
Visit here for that: http://www.positive-feedback.com/staff.htm
While David Robinson and the Clarks (Dave and Carol) are both unable to attend CES this year, we will still have a decent number of PF writers in attendance... like 14! So stay tuned for their thoughts and images!
May all of my friends have a joyous and prosperous 2012. I cherish your friendship and feel only richer by your presence and connections. Love to one and all!
Have suggested to a certain someone that at at any upcoming audio show a room should be dedicated to a system well under $1k, ran by people who are around 20 playing music a 20-year old is into, and make the room look cool and hip.... will see if I can get this to happen in Newport.

On the drive home from dinner some radio station played a live recording of Pink Floyd performing Money from way back... the whole time I was thinking out loud.. so self-indulgent, tired blues solos, out of time, the drummer must be taking a crap as he is missing, repetitive noodling, and what... ripping on making money and yet you guys were huge! Next song was by the Clash... so right! So appropriately correct. True music with a heart and passion...energy!
Dave: Thanks, but $13Gs for the DAC is more than the rest of my system put together. I'm looking for a more balanced approach in the $2 - 5G range. Chris

White on white translucent black capes
Back on the rack
Bela Lugosi's dead
The bats have left the bell tower
The victims have been bled
Red velvet lines the black box
Bela Lugosi's dead
Undead undead undead
The virginal brides file past his tomb
Strewn with time's dead flowers
Bereft in deathly bloom
Alone in a darkened room

Two cables got trashed on our trip... the headphone cable for my Sennhiesers and the adapter cable for the iPod to ALO amp. Suggestions other than what I was already using? Cardas headphone cable and the ALO silver adapter cable....
i suggested that it would have sounded way better had they moved the left speaker .38 of an inch further to the left. ;P yeah, a wierd setup and way too far apart. why the need to show in such a room is beyond me.
Cables do make a difference (though obviously to varying degrees) and whether that difference is less or more or just different is all rather moot. If you like what it does then go with it. if you don't then don't. Ditto anything else in a system.
And there are many engineers, physicists, etc. who are making audio products (cables, plc, electronics, etc.) who clearly know what they are doing and w

Celebrated our son's birthday yesterday with friends and family. Great time. Carol and I bailed around midnight though and went to a hotel so he and his friends could continue on. Us older 'people' sharing music with his friends was the best... plus food and drinks! Was great to see a them sitting and enjoying the music via the system(s).
Yikes, I went to install/update to the latest version… and it asked me for an activation code. Was thinking that it would see the iLok and take that as legit.
