Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter versus Duet, trying to decide

would guess!). Once you get the Duet/Classic, you could try comparing the Duet analog outs to the digital outs via your Yamaha to see which you like better. I don't know your receiver well, but I'd bet the DAC is similar quality to the one in the Duet, so this could go either way. -- lanierb

amp. I'm sure you have tried other setups, but if you haven't tried it with a separate power amp, I would highly recommend it. -- lanierb lanierb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5566 View

no effect in similar tests, one would have to still lean toward thinking that it's more likely there is no effect. This is particularly true given the lack of a theory for the effect. -- lanierb lanierb's Profile: http

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: 256 kBits vs. Flac

no better, or takes the same amount of storage and sounds worse. Bottom line: it's affordable to use FLAC now, so you may as well do it right once, know you're getting the best quality, and save yourself the future hassles. Lanier -- lanierb

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: Active Speakers for Conservatory

. The super T is awesome. Another option on speakers is the Onix XLS speakers from www.avs123.com (currently $219). I don't think you can get a better speaker for the price. Together they would be $370+shipping, well below your budget. -- lanierb
