| Linear Power Supply Recommendations! @lalitk For too long I'd assumed DC cables couldn't be that important, big mistake, on some equipment makes similar difference as AC power cables.. I haven't tried any home brew shielded DC cables, just light twist on the Mundorf. Doubt I'd be eve... | |
| DDC Comparisons In order for dacs and DDC's to have universal compatibility with one another they must offer 8 different pin configurations. | |
| Marianne Faithfull Seems everyday another artist from back in the day passes, RIP. | |
| Sonore Signature Rendu SE I'm using AfterDark Project ClayX reference SFP, believe I purchased the 1g version. I have 1g internet service. | |
| Linear Power Supply Recommendations! @lalitk I would be interesting to see a direct lps comparison, love my JS-2. Forgot to mention JCAT Optimo lps, very nice quality lps, I use the Optimo ATX with my custom server. For anyone using lps with various components, DC cables also... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship DHT's are my favorite tubes and topology, both my amps and pre use them. Pretty interesting integrating class D with DHT. Your choice to go with I2S should be fine match with 006. | |
| Got Innuous, now a DAC I agree with need to look at higher grade dacs with that streamer. Laiv Harmony is wonderful dac, Musetec 005 may also fall in your budget area. Both have configurable I2S pin settings if you went DDC route. | |
| Cayin D30 DAC outperforms Weiss, Playback, CH and MSB 30th may be most expensive Chinese dac I've seen, looks pretty impressive on paper. Your results not surprising to me, I went to Chinese dacs some years ago, never looked back. My present Musetec 006 also competes favorably with my very nice vinyl... | |
| DDC Comparisons If planning to use I2S for the long run make sure both dac and ddc have pin configuration ability. With this you can use ddc with any dac and vice versa. As for ddc, I have Denafrips Gaia, wanted highest quality clock, power supply to that clock ... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship The Innuos usb module uses OXCO clock, I2S two Femto clocks, who can say which is better. I can only tell you I prefer I2S input on 006, this with Denafrips Gaia and Tubulus cable. Without direct experience with your intended setup how can I or an... | |
| BS meter is pegged! Don't see dual CPU on that board, so hyperbole about dedicated CPU. Still, depending on software used and implemented it is possible to minimize use of CPU resources. I have 7 cores on my CPU, custom build streamer running Euphony OS and Roon, all... | |
| Has anyone compared the Opticalrendu streamer to the upgraded Opticalrendu Deluxe? I've also considered upgrading from my present OR and OM to deluxe versions, so far held off as I'm entirely content with the present streaming. My OR and OM modified with Finisar 1475 transceivers, AfterDark optical cabling. Assuming one would ne... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @car123 Same with me, tried async a couple times early on. The difference easily heard within seconds/minutes, smaller sound stage, less spaciousness, this to the point I've never bothered to explore further. @brbrock Noticed thread you starte... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @car123 What I find most enlightening is we both have very nice vinyl setups and our nearly exact same digital setups are competing very favorably with those vinyl setups, goes to show how far digital and/or streaming has come. Now, one thing ... | |
| Help :( Speakers making constant static sound I cannot figure it out Certainly sounds like tube rush to me, not sure I believe anything malfunctioning here. Tube audio equipment self generated noise variable, this level of tube rush may be normal or inherent to your amp/speaker combo. I have 104db speaker and both ... |
