If you are recording streaming content from, say, the internet for example, it would go straight to your drive. it would only touch the sound card if you are playing it back; i.e. listening to it. If you are recording from a device plugged in to your sound card then yes it would go through the...

Can't see why this shouldn't work, have you tried it? If so what problems have you encountered. I have similar equipment and can try it out for you tomorrow if you need a methodology.

If you want to lower your box count have a look at What Hi-Fi's latest news. Quad active speakers '9AS' with an in-built dac and power amps in each speaker. Definately worth a listen to and £600. Cheers

Hi guys, I live in France and use Qobuz. The web site is far better organized than HDTracks with far more information, albeit in french. The daily updates are interesting and they seem to be adding loads of stuff at a rapid rate. One feature that I have found which is not highlighted is that...

Hi, I've tried dynaudios and whilst awesome sound I always had a problem with imaging. I've tried, rega's and others and settled on S5e by Spendor. Great imaging, awesome depth, unfussy about positioning (unlike the dyn's). If you go to hi-fi for sale . com there are a couple of pairs for sale...

I'm glad it's just not me. I agree with your points about taking reviews lightly but we all use them as a starting point. I have more frustration than most as I live in France in the middle of no-where. I create a shortlist, arrange some demos in the UK and fly over to check them out. I hate...

Hi guys, just been reading the review of the Mission SX2. As I'm in the market for some new bookshelf speakers reviews like this are an invaluable source for creating a short list. However, I feel my short list could be even shorter if a bit more basic info was given such as;- Speaker...

How about this stuff, Van Damme Blue. I have used the 2.5 stuff and it is great. Not much difference IMHO from the expensive Atlas stuff I also purchased. 1.05 per metre http://www.amazon.co.uk/Van-Damme-Professional-Studio-Speaker/dp/8413113334/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1318002118&sr=8-3 Cheers

I used the Fubar3 MKII with Grado SR80i with success. Way way better than listening direct from my iPod Touch/apple TV. Made a mistake and sold it for the Spitfire II (no headphone though) for use with my Naim set up. Just sold the Naim gear (not baby friendly) and the Spitfire and like you am...

Strodo,You don't say what kind of Ipod you have or intend to buy. The Ipod 5G for example has a very good DAC on it (Wolfson), much better in fact than the current Ipod Classic and ITouch. ÿIf you have one of these or others then there are upgrades that can help. ÿ For more details see...
