I do not know what you are trying to do, why do you need the Lynx card, why is need to be modified and what does it mean “powered individually”, the people looks like sell power supply and they push the notion of individual power but no one said that...

Ok, 2 thoughts:1) Forsell seems to have some air suspension for the CD platter. I don't know in which axis/axes it works but if in the same as the rollers (lateral motion+torsion) then there is a potential for a troublewith a double compliance system...

Well, I hate to think N-Set's efforts equate functionally with such a "basic" solution. For a while I had my CD transport sitting on a wood platform that was "decoupled" by several blue rubber handballs that were stopped from rotating and interfaced ...

perfectly able to understand you play a different ballpark but what if a good DAC is not such a thing.
I orderd a Vicol shigaclone to be build in the Behringer Ultra Curve, with a spdif tube buffer to a Behringer Ultra match for upsamplingand a tub...

Hi all.We are small company, dedicated to creation of highest quality audio products. Analog and Digital. We have auditioned many music servers on the market.However most of them do not sound as good as good quality 16Bits cd transport. The approach ...

[quote user="Stitch"]My EMM labs CDSA-SE is very unreliable and I think, I will do a last repair or maybe I will throw it directly into the junk box. Depends on my mood...but I found some interesting Design from 47 Labs. But never listened to one.An...

1) I play a CD on an 'excellent' CD transport. I take the digital output from this (spdif or AES) and connect it to a PC interface (a Lynx or RME card). I capture the digital output on the PC as a .wav file using Wavelab or something similar.2) I...

You know, the more I look at the parts and construction of these things, the more impressed I am, for the price. I do like the look of that rubidium master clock too, again at an impressive price. Unfortunately, the closet dealer at which I can audit...

Romy,Well, in the course of a weekend I typically listen to a lot of music, but there are a few favorite CDs that I like to use when trying to evaluate things:Piano Music of Chopin, Brahms & Prokofiev, Lincoln Mayorga, Sheffield Lab SL505The Lein...

Paul SI don't have vinyl playback at the moment. My source is an MSB Platinum Data IV transport with transport power base, fed into a Metrum Hex dac. The amp is an Ars Sonum Filharmonia. So there isn't much of a power drain. Also: cabling is...

T, The phrase “"no measurable jitter” was actually the Ed Meitner quote and it was he himself who claimed that his transport and his DAC bound together via his C-clock interface have no measurable jitter. I have no reasons to disbelieve him regarding...

[quote user="Telstar"] Oh I was thinking about FLAC, such as the ones from Linn Records, not raw WAVE files. [/quote]
I use only WAVE64 (.w64) files,

Good news for audiophiles Cessaro new speaker is active and all Components like DAC DSP Pre and Power are in the new cessaro ported DSP loudspeaker.You just need a transport like cheap LG Samsung to play Ultra high end Sound ??https://www.cessaro.de/...

Got it! It's -simply- put but 'en-point', thank you. The catch is, that most ALL systems do not, can not, 'transcribe' this simple but POWERFUL quality, 'greatness'. Even some really BIG systems I've heard can sound 'bourgeois' only, and some even 'p...

Interesting, jessie
In my past I was trying to make my PC-based music server to act as CD transpire but whatever I did a dedicated CD transport sounded substantially better, in fact non contestably better. I used various software to read CDs, ...

Digital: “Binary data”Trans: “across, beyond, to the other side”-Port: “transferring or carrying”You'll note the conspicuous absence of reference to 'spinning disks'. By strict definition, a digital transport only processes data and delivers it to a ...

I touched on local electricity problems in a recent electricity post. Briefly, the local nuclear plant has been shut down by concerned politicians after "leaks" were detected. Setting aside mutated flora and fauna, sound has been worse more of the ...

[quote user="item"] The data ripped to the hard disk is - absolutely precisely - the same as the data on the CD. [/quote] Not necessarily. The data on CD is very much not the same as stream I uncompressed let say wave file. It was what I ment whe...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It was exactly what I was experimenting for many times since 2005 and I came to exactly opposite finding. I am not able to make neither LP, tape or CD to copy in digital that would sound like original source. I am able to ...

2023 was pretty weird for me, continuing battles with health issues and enduring cures that have been worse in some ways than the ailments. Somehow, I managed to build and integrate The Loudspeakers during this time, resulting in what turned out to b...

[quote user="Chirag"]I just wonder if some of the slight upper range grainy hardness (transport?? cabling??) can be removed with better supplies or output stage.[/quote]Yes, Chirag.
It is transport, cabling, amplifiers, tweeters, elec...

I did notice the platforms, and I figured it was something like this, since we've all heard the feedback loop that can happen, and we learn "what not to do" that way. Regarding your TT loosing LF atop a platform, I wrote here about my CD transport be...

To my big surprise the Pacific tuned out to be an absolutely wonderful 16-bit DAC - the only one that migh compete with by Bidat. It does not go into max weigh of lowest end as some other best converters do but it has such an interesting and reach “e...

[quote user="Paul S"]Interesting that problems Harley isolated in this case (pits and lands; turntable) were physical/mechanical, utimately "analog", in that sense. I'm glad someone has stayed after it, but not sure how to put this revelation to work...

Romy,I don't recall seeing a bypass switch per se, and don't know if the other control functions ofter something equivalent. I haven't really experimented with the 3000+ much, as my system is in a state of influx, with addition of items (entire cabl...
