  1. The DAC accepts USB Type A. I'll be finding out soon enough. I'm just trying to jump ahead of delivery to see that I have the right cables.
  2. I did generally understand this point, but you brought it home a lot better. The main question I had is whether the signal will bypass the laptop's DAC and go to my SU-1 DAC if I connect my laptop's USB-C port to the SU-1's USB 2.0 port.
  3. I'll try. What I don't understand is this: If you're playing music on a laptop, the sound will come out of the speakers, or if you plug in a set of earphones, through the earphone jack. I did not realize that if you plug in a USB device, the sound will be sent to the external device. I thought that plugging in a USB device would have no effect on the music either playing through the laptop speakers or the headphones.
  4. Bought this: S.M.S.L SU-1 MQA MQA-CD Audio Decoder AK4493S XU316 768kHz/32Bit DSD512 Hi-Res DAC https://a.co/d/eQRnOaR Do I use USB to USB from laptop to DAC? If my laptop has both USB and a USB C port, can I use USB C from laptop to USB in the DAC?
  5. The seller said he purchased them in very poor cosmetic condition and spruced them up with new veneer, false corners, casters and some sturdy lag bolts and screws. These are assembled to withstand a fall from 3 stories.
  6. I love the sound quality of this album.
  7. These arrived last weekend: These (minus the little speakers shown) are arriving Monday:
  8. They were a talented band on this album. All good musicians.
  9. Thanks. Earlier today, I subscribed to Qobuz. I'm just now getting around to seeing how it's all laid out. Seems like it might do the trick. So far, I have found everything I've searched for, and I search for some obscure stuff. I just listened to "Hands Up," by Rory Gallagher. Now, I'm listening to Charlie Daniels' album, "Fire on the Mountain." Pleased so far...
  10. Where do I get access to a complete classic rock library in FLAC?
  11. While we're at it, I have never used one. What kinds of cables and other accessories will I need? How do you connect it? Is it between laptop and preamp, or a different order?
  12. Distortion blows tweeters. I blew tweeters on Cornwalls with a pretty good vintage Marantz 90 watt integrated amp. 1180 DC if I remember correctly. Moved to a Crown Microtech 1200 and had all kinds of headroom. Never blew a tweeter again. Never had to push the amp. It wouldn't even get warm.
