Just saw Paul’s newest vid and he, briefly, mentioned a Stellar integrated amp? Any news/ details? (I’m not really sure why I’m asking as I have my sights set on a Stellar mono-block system…but still…)

This post may be controversial, but it is offered thoughtfully and with best intentions. As I learn more about PSA and their development efforts, and in particular the push(es) to develop user interfaces for streamers, music servers, etc., I wonder if a better approach would be to license proven sy…

This is not a particularly controversial position and has been suggested previously. :slight_smile: The problem is once you adopt an other’s software you are bound to it. PS Audio wants to be free of the restraints of working with a third-party and subject to their whims. See, e.g., Paul’s commen…

Haha, that’s good. I’m new here and didn’t want to come off too negative or pushy or whatever so just qualified it that way, haha. Yeah I figured not an original idea but like I said, just found the site and started paying attention to brand so not familiar with past discussions. Rock on

Like I said couple posts up, I can get class g, es9038 based dac and bluesound user interface (probably the best interface out there currently) all in for $2k. Grante…

Ever heard of “The Law of Diminishing Returns”? As the envelope gets pushed higher, a small improvement costs a lot more - so to stay on the cutting edge costs a lot more for a little bit better sound, performance, speed…The happy corollary of which, though, is that eventually you get to where the c…

Paul, James, The Strata has me really interested. 4 questions: Will it be an Octave endpoint in the future? Will it be able to stream UPnP from a network connected computer? Will it stream native DSD, as Octave Music has the Sonoma DSD recording system and Guss Skinnas as DSD expert sound engine…
