Has anybody tryed a P1A with a 24/96 DAC other than P3A. I have a TacT RCS 2.0 with a 24/96 non upsampling DAC. I was woundering if adding the P1A, upsampling to 24/96 would help. Also not using the I2S to connect, will that have an effect?
Yes, I auditioned a P1A at the New York GES show it was AMAZING. The Difference was incredible However, I think you have to make certain they have the software for your particular speakers Mp10019
I agree with Mp10019, for speaker correction make sure they have the software for your speakers.
As far as upsampling the current thinking is that it is better to upsample at the transport. Martin Dewulf from Bound for Sound swears by upsampling at the trasport. I have not listen to it, but Dewulf is seldom wrong.
i have used the p1a with a birdland oden-lite. did not find the upsample did much for sound...a little better but not worth the money. i did find that the cd enhance had a dramatic effect on the sound...to the good. i do not know what it does though. i would buy one but....the quality of perpet was bad....first unit did not work. i could never get the is2 to work (on replacement). i even burned in the unit for 100 hours as suggested by perpet folks (very nice people). think i will wait to see what else is comming out....24/196 in a p2??? (or some other crazy thing i will have to have). they stated they had several product launches comming out in the near future.
