| DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... I've listened to the Terminator in two systems and against several DACs. I definitely prefer it to my Yggy Analog1 in my system but am sending my Yggy to be upgraded to Analog2 next week. I definitely preferred the Ayre QX-8 to it in my friend's... | |
| Audio Research Ref 10 vs 40th Anniversary preamp I currently have the Ref5SE and Ref6 and agree that the difference is fairly large. | |
| Which USB Cable to buy Curious, Phasure, Purist Audio, Clarity, SOtM all have good USB cables. | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT or Wilson Sabrina I'd go Vandersteen unless you like a very neutral presentation. | |
| Carver Amazing Line Source Speakers I heard them at RMAF last year and wasn't expecting much since the room was very small. Contrary to my expectations, they sounded amazing. If I were to start my system over, I'd strongly consider getting them over my Magnepan 3.7i's. | |
| Innuos Zenith @david_ten No, I don't think there were any DAC-specific synergies with the SE. | |
| Chord Dave or Ayre QX5 Twenty DAC??? I've had both in my system and would go Dave because of Blu2. | |
| Innuos Zenith I use the Schiit Yggdrasil with my SE but have also tried an Ayre Codex, Mytek Brooklyn+, Chord Hugo2, and Chord 2qute.I've also tried a Chord Dave and Ayre QX-5 Twenty my system but not with the SE. | |
| Audiophile class AB vs Hypex N-core class D technologies . I had the Merrill Veritas and thought they sounded very similar to my Sanders Magtech. | |
| Innuos Zenith I have the SE. It's excellent and slightly edged out my SOtM sMS-200 Ultra. The sMS-200 Ultra is the better bang for the buck though. | |
| Uptone Audii ISO REGEN and Aesthetix Romulus DAC/CD Player True... everything is system dependent, but I haven’t come across a DAC yet that doesn’t benefit from the tX-USB Ultra. I’ve tried some fairly high-end DACs such as the Ayre QX-5 Twenty and Chord DAVE.BTW, I have an ISO-Regen and LPS-1 for sale. ... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? I have the SOtM dCBL-CAT7 and don’t really think it makes a difference. | |
| Uptone Audii ISO REGEN and Aesthetix Romulus DAC/CD Player SOtM tX-USB Ultra is better than the ISO Regen. You'll absolutely hear an improvement. | |
| DeVore Gibbon X v. Vandersteen Quattro Wood CT w/Ayre AX5/20 I've heard both and prefer the Vandersteen. However I prefer the O series Devore to the Gibbon. | |
| Magnepan 3.7i vocals sound harsh @bluesy41 At what volumes do you listen to music? |
