Article: McIntosh RS200 Wireless Speaker System
kidgoo replied to The Computer Audiophile's topic in Article Comments
Hi Chris, May I suggest a comparison between the McIntosh and the Devialet Phantom series of bluetooth speakers when you receive it? I figure they are both in the same price range and could compete for title of "best". Thanks! -

Hey guys, Just wondering if anyone knows of a good solution for getting my flac files into my iPhone. If I used a mac, I would use fluke and it wouldn't be a problem, except I run my iTunes on windows. As far as I know there is no fluke for windows. Is this correct? thanks Joe

I'll give your settings a try as well. This is what I like about computer audio - the ability to easily experiment with different settings without having to necessarily purchase anything. I was currently using WASAPI event style with my ARCAM rDAC and leaving the buffering at the default settings. I'll digest it over a few days and report back. Thanks!

Article: Arcam rDAC Asynchronous USB DAC Review
kidgoo replied to Lakefield's topic in Article Comments
Just got an rDac and have been listening to the sweet sounds of Marta Gomez since it's been home. Pure heaven!<br /> <br /> Does anyone have any good recommendations for a power supply upgrade? Not that I am complaining about the rdac's sound in any way, shape or form (at least not yet). Does anyone have any experience/opinion of the Teddy rdacPS?<br /> <br /> http://www.audiocominternational.com/product_info.php?products_id=206&osCsid=sqcjavo4og6emfeekoburviph6<br /> <br /> thanks<br /> joe<br /> -
You've probably looked into this already but just in case you overlooked it: Check your settings in Windows. Do you have the output stream set at too high a quality i.e. 24bit 192 khz while trying to play 16 bit 44khz material? Set your output to 2 channel - 16 bit (CD Quality) and try that.

This is always a fun post. My 11 favs (10 + bonus) in no particular order and ignoring fair representation from all musical flavours are: 1) Doves - Lost Souls 2) Beck - Sea Change 3) Stan Getz - Jazz Around Midnight 4) Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It In People 5) Rage Against the Machine - ST 6) Spiderbait - GrandSlam 7) Jeff Buckley - Grace 8) Prodgy - The Fat of The Land 9) Stone Roses - ST 10) Radiohead - OK Computer 11) Sigur Rós - Ágaetis Byrjun The Streetsweeper CD is excellent Chris! Have you heard Zack de la Rocha's project - One Day As a Lion? If you haven't, you should check it out - http://www.onedayasalion.org/ -
I agree with BSN. I've had the thingee for a couple of months and the output is definitely low, which is fine if you use it wth a preamp but makes it more difficult to perform ABX testing with a CD player or another input. I'm reasonably happy with it however especially for the price.

I agree with you Ted B. I just ripped my DVD-A of Beck's Seachange, sounds great through 2-channel but not as good as 5.1! I also used DVDA explorer with no problems. Also ripped the full 5.1 channels as a backup just in case something happens to the disc.
