Time-Phase-Alignment- Point Source-Classical Musicians Duevel Bella Luna: 2way point source with Omni dispersion. Wonderful. | |
Chord Dave and lInear power supply If you decide to upgrade your DAC’s power supply do yourself a favour and also upgrade the 5V USB line on a separate rail. You’ll be pleasantly surprised | |
Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Add to Charles Hansen’s list the quality of the USB implementation. While asynchronous USB can be the preferred connection, much depends on the RMI/EFI rejection of the USB port. And not to forget: the clocking accuracy of the USB connection. If I... | |
Parity A well set up vinyl system has euphonic distortions that are pleasant to the human ear. There is no conceivable scenario where vinyl has less distortions than hi res digital. That said, digital for this very reason may sound ‘harsher’ and less ple... | |
Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts One more thought: keep measuring the wrong thing and the earth stays flat | |
Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Come on children, all together now:’ We all live in a yellow submarine…’ | |
Upgrading power system Consider adding an Add Powr Symphony or Symphony Pro particularly near your digital power supplies. You‘ll be very pleasantly surprised | |
A Question About Time Alignment To those suggesting that phase coherence doesn‘t matter: listen to a recording in- and out of polarity (i.e. reverting phase) and pay attention particularly to the leading edge of instuments. If you can‘t hear the difference either buy a better sy... | |
A Question About Time Alignment As you go down this particular rabit hole, you‘ll end up concluding that time allignment isn‘t sufficient. For anything but deep bass having a point source is ideal because you avoid both phase and differential reflection issues: hence Tannoy dual... | |
Intona filter shortest USB connection @gdnrbob, I respectfully disagree: addressing ethernet based noise incursions and using a galvanic isolator on USB will do nothing but improve sound quality. As you know, InnuOS sells a separate Phoenix Ethernet for this purpose: why you‘d hav... | |
Things I don‘t know @mike_in_nc Did you just use an M3 or a ref10? makes a big difference | |
Intona filter shortest USB connection Get a 30cm Intona Reference cable: you won‘t find better, actually better, get 2 of those | |
Router for Audio Streaming Here is a simple tweak: get some Black Ravioli footers under your router and a VPI brick on top. Use a $100 Chinese LPS. If you feel rich, get an Acoustic Revive Ethernet filter on top. | |
Router for Audio Streaming In remote areas where there aren‘t too many networks competing for bandwidth wireless can work very well without some of the vagaries of wired connections. In an urban setting, interference however tends to be too high.,What definitely doesn‘t wor... | |
Things I don‘t know @erik-squires that is one line of arguments, indeed. However Innuos spends enormous efforts on reclocking both USB and Ethernet connections and best I know DCM offers full external clock support for all its units. There is also a vibrant market f... |
