| What improvements did you hear in going from entry level to high end Audio? Pipebro is that what the tapping sound is ? I always thought it was Stills tapping time on the body of his guitar. Not sure I would use that as a reference for a high end system, I can hear it on my samsung tablet and I'm over 60 with high freq he... | |
| Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound? Cirrus Logic bought out Wolfson so I have no idea what their newer stuff in the last 3 or 4 years is like. Best to try and get a listen to as many as you can. | |
| Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound? Laid back IMO is a warm relaxed sound not to forward. There is more to it than simply the dac as tomic601 points out but over the years I have had a couple of pieces with wolfson and they seemed to have that similar sound. | |
| Why so few speakers have their price listed online I have been searching for speakers as well and have been able to find prices for the most part. The ones I have a hard time or never found the price fall into the "if you have to ask you can't afford it" crowd. One way you might try neo is look f... | |
| Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound? It's how they implement the chip other chips can have that warm sound . I have the AK4490 chip in my integrated amp and discovered I prefer it to the wolfson dac in products I have used but the wolfson always sounded more laid back. | |
| Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound? I havd found that wolfson dacs have a smooth/warm sound. I have never heard it but I notice the Rega you listed uses wolfson. | |

| Micromega M-100/150 field reports I emailed Micromega and they said they were going to integrate Qobuz in their app hopefully by the end of the year. I guess about the same time Qobuz is suppose to be available in th US. | |
| Could I make use of a DAC with my setup? No this is the only micromega product I have owned. I got it for the room correction the streaming capabilities was a surprise. It connects to my library, internet radio, tidal I am hoping they add Qobuz. | |
| A song murdered by someone. "Lucy in the sky with diamonds" by William Shatner is a memorable classic. | |
| The RME ADI 2-DAC 32Bit/768kHz Micromega M100 integrated amp uses the AK4490. | |
| Could I make use of a DAC with my setup? I too am waiting to try Qobuz I hope my integrated amp will support it like it does Tidal. For info purposes my amp is a Micromega M100 which is a streamer as well makes things a bit easier. I am all for ease of use. | |
| Could I make use of a DAC with my setup? That's why I was curious as to why you didn't use the usb on the P5. Since you have plans to upgrade the computer you could continue what you do and when you get a new computer try it with usb if it doesn't perform like you want then try a sepera... | |
| Could I make use of a DAC with my setup? Ah OK , I never tried the usb on my integrated amp I just stream through it's lan port. Thought it would have been easier to use the usb but I understand about trying to get old computers to play nice. | |
