| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired @jimmy2615 Goldensound in his YouTube review of the May commented that the input/receiver hardware was of such high quality that it didn’t matter what source was used, even a gaming computer. He aparently did not formally test this. I found the... | |
| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired Epilogue I mention in my original review that I would report back after listening to music from the May for a few days. This time the listening was in a normal manner without labored A/B comparisons. My original conclusions did not change. Sin... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @yyzsantabarbara I'm curious about the soundstage in the Topping. I read a review that it had good width but poor depth. What is your experience with that? | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @warfy @melm had good results with the AudioQuest Pearl usb cable. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @wharfy I agree with melm on the break in time. Also, you might have noticed, it seems most prefer the USB input as better than the others. I would stick with this one, at least in the beginning. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @wharfy I look forward to hearing your impressions. | |

| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired @wharfy. I agree with sns as he stated in the 005 thread.. I find the 005 to have no glare or high frequency irritation. You will hear the truth. No sugar coated gloss. That being said, listening is highly personal. Sometimes a violin, for exampl... | |
| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired @metaldetektor "(1) The source(s) could be a meaningful limiting factor. A regular laptop --> USB cable --> DAC is not a great digital source. So it’s possible that one of the DACs has a significantly higher ceiling than the other, but it wa... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I'm glad you are happy with the 005. Welcome to the small but growing club. Goldensound recently released a very positive review of the Gustard on YouTube. Perhaps you can make a comment there to convince him to review the 005. It deserves wider a... | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend @verdantaudio I agree generally with you and your musician friend to the extent that there is no reality and hence accuracy in conncection with electronicly produced music. No base line exists. The recording is an artifact made by the musicians... | |
| Thoughts on JRiver Media Center? Anyone using it? JRiver is indispensable for me because I have a very large number of classical works stored in my server. It is the only one I know of that provides a customizable robust meta-data system that is suitable for classical. Plus the sound quality is e... | |
| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired I only use JRiver with the 005. It can upsample, but it may not be comparable in quality to HQPlayer. I've noticed very little difference as the quality of 44.1 is so good. In fact, I'm not even sure the native DSD files I have sound better than t... | |
| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired I'd love to hear your take on the Musetec compared to higher priced DACs. Where are you in NY? | |
