    Nearfield audio setup - next steps?

    Same here the hissing gets to me unless its a cassette where I expect a level of hissing. The only way appears to be to go and see the speakers and try them out but thats not always available to you in a smaller country or city.

    Nearfield audio setup - next steps?

    What lenght is your desk?

I was thinking of getting a 200cm desk as currently its 1400 as I thought it would allow...

    I wouldnt mean to insult anyone but some of the language used in the hifi magazines is hyperbole but I still buy what hifi and Hi-Fi Choice the odd time as I like the porn (sorry I meant the pictures of the gear).

    I have kabel direkt in an attic setup that doesnt get daily use so I went up and took a look based on your post and yes the rca connector is looser than I would have expected.

    I buy my cables from amazon.co.uk seller KabelDirekt and a roll of 14 gauge speaker wire and deadbolt banana plugs from sewell direct also on amazon. They are cheap and probably im missing out on the transparency, staggering midrange and jaw-dropping bass I could have got if I spent the price of...

    Bargain DAC Suggestions?
