Bryston BDA-1 DAC
It's true he'd have to convert it to PCM, but apparently the SQ recording to DSD is really good. I think he authors the high res PCM to DVD-A format for playback.

Al you might be interested in this device: http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/showthread.php?t=154980 Records straight to DSD. I guess the thread starter is pretty happy with his and has made a lot of high res needle drops with it. edit: sorry not sure why it won't let me directly link to the SH thread...says internal link and points back to Head-Case

Have you been murfed?
"After reading a recent report by laptopmag.com that cited Office Depot stores for ordering its sales clerks to tell customers that “sale” laptop computers were out of stock—unless the customers first agree to purchase software as well as extra cost, extended warranties and in-store set-ups (see link here)—the HD Guru went undercover to investigate sales and price matching policy performance at local Best Buy outlets." When I used to work at Best Buy (Christmas season) I have had managers tell me directly not to sell cheap PCs to customers unless they were buying accessories like cables, anti virus software, etc. And this was almost ten years ago It was a hot time and most of the low to medium priced computers stayed in stock less than a couple of days. Asking employees to lie to people to improve sales = lose

I know two large mastering studios in Chicago that didn't pay for most of their expensive gear. And this is just rumor- but Chord donated all its gear used in Abbey Road Studios to them.

I wouldn't take this to mean a whole lot. Often times they are given the gear for free or at a very significant discount since it's basically free advertising for said manufacturer.

Yeah I just sent an email to the seller, thanks for the reminder I guess some of it is available as bootlegs, though low quality. Bob Drake did the mastering so it should be excellent. He has a page up with details on the box set: http://www.bordebasse.fr/henrycow/remastering.htm

Oh my I see ReR put out a full box set, very tempting especially for the "unreleased" material.

Thanks I picked up the remix you linked to. It's a great album, definitely my favorite by Henry Cow. People at SH say there is some no noise on the remaster (ReR), but if there is it's done in a very mild manner.

Is the SQ better on that remixed CD? I just checked my disc, and it's an ReR.

Al buy yourself a nice 8 core Mac Pro then you'll have something to put the AES16e in As a non-fan of conflicting IO/DMA issues, I am very happy that there are high end PCI-Express digital soundcard transports being made available to us.
