Help with High Rez Digital Playback

I’ve received several questions from members re: “What’s the best way to playback the Reference Recordings (RR) HRx material?”

Or a related question: “How do I best make a music server work?”

Stereophile, TAS, and others have recently taken their cut at the second question. Your local audio dealer should also be able to assist you.

In addition, Marcia at RR Offers her personal advice re the excellent “Alpha DAC” that we heard in the demos:

Bob,

Since Michael Ritter at Berkeley Audio Design was not able to be at the demo, many people had questions about the DAC and about dealers, availability, etc. that I was not able to answer. His contact info is:

Michael Ritter
Berkeley Audio Design Associates, LLC
3048 Benvenue Ave.
Berkeley, CA 94705
510-277-0512
email Michael

Another thing: Tim Marutani (email Tim) is a great source to steer your members towards, if they want help putting together a computer server/playback system of their own.

Thanks!
Marcia
