I could not edit fast enough my previous post... There are some albums offered in higher bitrates, but I am not sure if there are many. The other thing is that you need to press "English" each time...

Not that I am fund of classical, but this site could be interesting for some. I don't know if there is a "territorial" restriction though...

+1 :) I assume that when I rip a CD, it is for a long time, so I prefer a program that will rip for the better once and for all :)

I keep all I have on 2 backup drives, but also have a "personal" drive (with 2 backups also) on which I only keep what I enjoy listening to. Not necessarily the best technique (money wise), but since...

Don't worry :) I use Google Translate a lot... And sometimes I regret not talking English enough... There are lots of expressions I have to guess from the context and a lot of acronyms still demand...

I am very interested in your findings :) There are good products that can "clean" the power, but it is the first time I read about a product that also works on the data line. If noise can run through...

I don't know if you go on the Qobuz website, but they (as others) offer "same kind" of artists when you sample the pages from one of your preferred artist :) It can be a nice way to discover other...

My misunderstanding... I can't tell since I do not use USB audio 1.x (except maybe for some peripherals like a keyboard and a mouse), but I am surprised too... Maybe there is a better synergy...

Hi Paul,

Is there still a USB 1 with nowadays PCs ? Maybe I did not understand the question correctly :(.

With the Audiophilleo 2 (at the time I was using a Bryston BDA-1), the sound was more precise (cleaner), with better micro-details (more silent background). There was a difference between the Aqvox...

André, the iUSB is more versatile than the Aqvox. I have the 2 of them and even if my ears do not allow me to feel any "speakable" difference, I would prefer the iUSB since it allows more...

These posts have a very positive aspect, as sometimes it relaxes the eye to read not too controversial posts :) Art and relaxation are good for the mind :) And it's the week-end !

Maybe it would be possible with a locomotive set of horns, but I doubt the neighbors will share the appreciation after a while ;)

No, no :) I checked it with interest also. I guess we should express it more ! :)

I am always surprised how inventive people can turn something into a peace of art :)

Thanks for sharing it !

I forgot to mention that I previously had an Audiophilleo 2 connected to a Bryston BDA-1 dac. I added an Aqvox USB power supply, that was replaced with a iUSB power supply (to power the AP2).

Another possibility would be to get the iFi-Audio iUSB power supply instead of the Pure Power ? IMHO it's more versatile...

Hi Scraps, have you tried adding an Esata plate like this one ?
StarTech ESATAPLT2LP Adapter - Newegg.com

You connect it to 2 internal satas from your motherboard. It's cheap and it could work ?...

+1 for SyncBack.

I know :) Maybe I had too many conflicts in another life :( But... As I am discovering expressions like "Tire kickers" (I envision someone kicking a tire) that makes me smile, maybe it is my angle of...

Hi Paul,

Though I have not gone through used market often (2 times only) and since I have never tried to deal with the prices that were indicated, I apply the principle that the dealer has a fair...

Jon, what is the software you use to make an image of your OS (Windows 8) ? I use Acronis True Image 2013 and I needed to restore it a few times without the re-activation hassle... ?

As for SSD...

Very cool ! :)
