    The DAC scam

    I can't believe they stopped making Curried Beens absolute sacrilege ... they did Curry beans for quite a while but thy're just not the same .... now moved onto Jalfrezi

    Help request - PC audio build (YouTube/ Spotify)

    Spotify will be a limiting factor in terms of quality as it's the lowest quality of all of the providers.

    The DAC scam

    People aren't attacking him for being a youtuber, some of them are brilliant .... people are attacking him for being an awful youtuber ... there's a difference. His sensationalist, attention grabbing titles and the way he presents his videos, he's not doing it because it's something he believes...

    The DAC scam

    I never said people have to spend any more, everybody has a choice and a budget as well. DAC's under £100 can be very good, my 1st Toping E30 was only a little over that when I bought it and is excellent .... I've not heard one but the SMSL SU1 has a huge following and is highly recommended...

    The DAC scam

    I didn't judge it on it's appearance at all, I questioned what you were using it for any why .... i.e. was it better than the DAC in your computer (if that's what it's connected to) and was that the reason you bought it. I'm personally looking for something that works / uplifts the sound from my...

    The DAC scam

    I tested the Optical / Coax out on both the WiiM Ultra and the Bluesoudn Nano vs using the USB out on both of them and there certainly seemed to be a fairly significant uplift in quality with both using USB .... it was like somone took the cloak off. I think I was most surprised with the Nanoas...

    The DAC scam

    Hopefully people are seeing through him and that trend contiunes and he'll disappear ... I've made / posted zero videos on youtube in 20 years so his 37 in one year is actually quite a lot but his content isn't good enough to attract the number of visitors he'd hoped for.

    The DAC scam

    Apologies for another post .... realised I didn't address this in previous reply. If you read reviews in magazines, they're most often not comparing products and saying one is better than the other as they're both potential customers and the one that's likely to come out worse off may cancel...

    The DAC scam

    Youtube .... people make videos that attract lots of hits which brings visitors to youtube who sell advertising, the more people visiting the site, the higher their advertising costs so increases their revenue and if you sign up for it, they share a small percentage of that with whoever posts...

    The DAC scam

    I was a complete sceptic on DAC's until November last year and erred towards the "it's just 1's & 0's" consensus but because I had no real experience of trying many wasn't as outspoken to go into threads about them, telling people they were wrong. I kept hearing people say there is a...

    The DAC scam

    And the peoblem is, there's always someone out there that's stupid enough to believe the garbage they spout.

    The DAC scam

    I think people just laugh at him and his sad titles to be quite honest.

    The DAC scam

    I'm not looking for them but everywhere I go I keep stumbling across positive comments about the Icon's sound ... I'd love to compare that using it's onboard DAC to my Nano with the Chord Qutest, if it was as good I'd rather the one unit with the extra inputs + sub management.

    The DAC scam

    Something I'm getting a feeling towards more and more from the naysayers .... they don't seem to have tried or have any real exerience of more expensive DAC's nor done any extensive testing themslves. There seems to be a lot of quite strong opinion coming from people who have zero experience...
