Tim you’re welcome. Glad the Zen is working well for you and is providing the sound you wanted. Enjoy!
What might pair well with a combined Laiv Harmony uDDC and Laiv DAC?
Beyond the title, not much to say. I am somewhat new to (some) digital equipment (though I have used it a lot at work in other realms, so some of the techno-babble sort of makes sense to me).
So I want to stream music (Qobuz) via a transport or streamer (DAC need not be part of it) to a DDC to a Laiv DAC (which arrives tomorrow!)(not the mini-DAC).
Other than the often-mentioned Rose RS130, can anyone comment on a streamer that would fit into this well? I think the uDDC opens the door to more inputs (it outputs as i2S or USB to the DAC).
Thanks.
Tim

@timothy468 You’re very welcome. Glad you landed on the Innuos products. Their system updates are frequent and are driven by user interaction/requests from their user Forum. Happy to hear the Zen MK 3 has worked well for you, love mine, I feel it’s the sweet spot in the product line. Works great with my LAIV uDDC and Network Acoustics SmoothLAN. Enjoy the music. |
@timothy468, what is the length of the Laiv Harmony µDDC’s supplied I2S interconnect from end to end? Have you had a chance to burn in the µDDC with the Harmony DAC? Thanks

I jumped the gun and spoke too soon, in error. It is the similar sized LExt phono expansion module that is paired with the Laiv HP2A headphone/pre-amp OS what comes with a proprietary “LE-LINK” connection. I looked for it and finally realized my confusion. I am ordering those two items next so I shall soon find out how that cable works. In the meantime I grabbed an HDMI I have (an audio quest maybe cinnamon) and started playing the Innuos through the DDC and am very happy with the sound. I shall likely get a tubulus concentus - as short as possible - to upgrade that connection. |
