    Welcome to AoS Xiehe. (BTW how do you pronounce your name?)

    We have many analogue fans here who would be interested in learning about your turntables (plus arms and cartridges) as well about your reel-to-reel recorders.

    Also we would be interested in knowing about the rest of your system and of your tastes in music. Don't be shy.

    Enjoy the Forum

    R2R is a shorthand for 'reel-to-reel'. What did you think it meant?

    R-2R is a DAC that uses a resistor ladder. But it's often written as R2R which does cause some confusion.

    Exactly rather like when people say they like a NOS DAC, and someone else might think they mean a vintage dac still new in its box. Confusing analogue/digital terminology
