I think someone ever mentioned about echo in this thread. But when I checked back, the text was removed.

What kind of USB3 cabel did You use? Do You use an Adapter to connect to the NOS DAC USB? Can't find a Shop in the Netherlands for an adapter (USB3 A to USB2 B) ?

Gerard, that links to your shopping card or something. So for "us" that link is dead ...

  I have a compressor

mmm interesting does not work for me - yet - but will investigate further.

Hey Gerard - I guess that my speaker project is going to be a longer term thing so I will keep these details thanks. But really interesting is the Metrum DAC's - something I have been looking for, for a while. An inexpensive NOS DAC for my study system (I thought I was going to have to make one!!). I already have a very good USB/SPDIF converter and a reclocker for low jitter - so a NOS DAC and a GainClone will provide a very satisfactory study system driven by XXhigh.

Thanks

Paul

Hey Gerard  - I love the look of your speakers very nice. At some point I could be interested to make a pair of speakers and I do hanker after some open baffle. The only problem for me is that in the past when I have experimented with open baffle I just could not get the bass right. Did you have any problems getting the bass to work? I would be really interested in that aspect and if you had to do anything to mitigate the effect of rear reflections.

The design I have been thinking about is Dick Olsher's BassZilla DIY project which is basically a big box for the bass driver and then a tweeter and super tweeter on open baffle. I would be really interested - does anyone have experience of this speaker? has anyone heard it?
