I am just curious what music sources Crack listeners are using?

iPod, iPad, CD, Phono, etc...........

Flacs from a WIN 10 PC homebuilt.....using JRiver Media Center version 18.
I use a USB ODAC to the Crack.

The Jriver is configured for bit perfect playback via WASAPI.

Great sound

I use mostly my Thorens TD147 turntable ( and a choice of 3 different phono stages) and a Marantz CD72 SE CD player as the source for my Crack (with a Sennheiser HD600).
Sounds perfect  ;D

Tidal HIFI from high end laptop through Topping DAC. Dual 510 turntable through Cambridge Audio phono pre. Actually just had my first good listen last night after installing the Speedball. Both sources sounded amazing. Even my poor old hummy Dual never sounded so good.
