High resolution digital is dead. The best DAC's killed it.
so what’s your point? Take a pill sunshine. I said That the DS PRO PRIME was part of the "DS Pro" series and it was the only one of 9 in that series that was Delta Sigma, the rest all being R2R. I don’t know what gen Cassanova i was holding And that the Casanova was also Delta Sigma, it states it in the manual specs and online, here is the page https://ibb.co/zf4T5Xp You must have been holding on to something else too tight. |
Interesting thread. I found my destination digital with the Aries Cerat Kassandra DAC. No up sampling, no filter, and using 16 x AD1865 NK chips. Huge power supplies, tube out (10v) I/V transformers, and huge output transformers. It weights 67 kilos but soundly beats all others I had at home inc: Hilo interesante. Encontré mi destino digital con el DAC de Aries Cerat Kassandra. Sin muestreo, sin filtro y usando 16 chips AD1865 NK. Enormes fuentes de alimentación, transformadores I / V de salida de tubo (10 v) y enormes transformadores de salida. Pesa 67 kilos, pero supera a todos los demás que tenía en casa: 1. Ch Precision C1 2. Chord DAVE 3. Lampizator Golden Gate 4. Naim CD555 5. Audio Note DAC 5 Signature Check out: https://ariesceratespana.com |
I couldn’t agree more with the OP. The desire for high-res was to reduce the timing artifacts from older DACs. I have the latest Beresford Caiman SEG DAC which is optimised to more accurately convert an SPDIF clock signal. The stability on Redbook is incredible. Standard Redbook choral music (Thalis Scholars) exhibits only natural harmonics and none of the harmonic timing artifacts that I’d previously assumed were on the recording. High-res was a temporary workaround. |
