One of my favorite demo tracks for sound quality: "What Was It You Wanted" (Willie Nelson, "Across the Borderline", track 10) Favorite music quote for quite some time: "Music is at its best when it carries you along at a level deeper than the music itself and forces you to live in its spaces as well as its notes..." (Keith Jarrett, from the liner notes to "Eyes of the Heart") Per

Hi Al, I would suggest you have a look at the Beresford TC-7520. http://www.beresford.me/products/TC-7520.html If you click pre-orders and then the TC-7520 item you get a detailed description of the DAC (even though the title says TC-7510) I have not heard any of the Beresford DACs but I have the original TC-7510 which is the version that Stan Beresford based his improved TC-7510 on. Please note that even though these DACs support 24/96 the USB input only supports max 16/48. Good luck. Best Regards, Per

Hi,<br /> <br /> I am all new to computer audio and have no mediaserver / player in my system (yet). I am really impressed with your site and your enthusiam, Chris, and find your reviews and the comments from folks here very valuable. Look forward to dig into to this new world of audio. When I read about white noise / bursts possible of taking out tweeters I was kind of worried. What about Linux? Are there any risks getting unsuspected noise running Linux?<br /> <br /> Best Regards,
