| Halide Design - MF X-DAC v3, vs Benchmark DAC? Thanks for the suggestions.So, a little experimentation goes a long way... 1. I tried the A5.5 USB input straight from a Mac USB output (CD file copied as AIFF file to Mac) -- not a disaster, but not great, sounded very compressed compared to CD. ... | |
| Halide Design - MF X-DAC v3, vs Benchmark DAC? There is another wrinkle to this... I just realized that my existing integrated Amp (the MF A5.5) has a USB input (and, thus, presumably a built-in DAC!). I think it will only sample up to CD rates, and I have no idea how the A5.5 DAC compares to ... | |
| Musical Fidelity A5.5 CD vs X-Ray V3, and related Cerrot - interesting, thanks. I have not had problems with the MF X-Ray however.Hmmm... I wonder if another upgrade path may be to find a new transport to use with the existing X-DAC? | |

| Musical Fidelity Tuner and Other Qs such as DVD I'm using the X-10 V3 - different tubes to the older X-10 - and I like what the X-10 does in my system. | |
| Musical Fidelity Tuner and Other Qs such as DVD Satch,Thanks. Yes, I had seen the X-plora, but it presumably belongs with the earlier X series. I was wondering if MF was making a new tuner along the same lines as the current X v3 components. A bit moot now, as I've picked up a Magnum Dynalab.Do... | |
| Musical Fidelity Tuner and Other Qs such as DVD John.Ladd - Update on system - just replaced the CD-to-X-10 and X-10-to-Amp interconnects with Red Dawn. That helps a lot. Still a bit bass heavy, but the whole thing has opened up much more; a definite improvement. Red Dawns are not burned in yet... | |
| Musical Fidelity Tuner and Other Qs such as DVD John,Thanks. I recently picked up a Magnum Dynalab MD-100 at a good price, and it works splendidly. So, for now, I'm not pursuing the MF tuner; but I'm still very interested to know if there will be one! Side note here - I bought another X-10 v3 t... |
