NAD C390DD Direct Digital DAC/Amplifier
BruceD7575 replied to bhobba's topic in DAC - Digital to Analog Conversion
I actually feel the same way, so I guess I jumped to my initial conclusion too soon. Bill's friend says the Eichmann's are the only ones worth trying. My friend says that, while the Eichmann interconnects are great, the Eichmann pods are not good at all. And, meanwhile, I'm just going to bypass them completely because I know I like the difference it's made in my previous systems. I wouldn't say "less is more" is always better, but probably most of the time. Which is part of what I like about the concept of the C390DD. -

Well, given the quote you have in your signature, I'm guessing you may be implying that since there may be no "measurable" difference between different binding posts, there's no difference in sound. I'd simply suggest that you have to try it and listen to see if you hear a difference. But, I know this gets to be a touchy subject (though not as much as it was 10 years ago!), so I'm not going to recommend you go and void your warranty if you don't believe it can make a difference. I don't personally a/b different binding posts. I bypass them altogether and love the difference I hear from it. I do the same with my speaker wire and speakers. But, I understand it's not for everyone. -

Bill, I've heard from a friend who's a high-end modder that the Cardas binding posts are much better than the Cable Pods. I haven't compared them myself (and don't plan to), but figured it might be worth you considering. Regardless, it's definitely a great idea to replace the stock ones though!
