AMR / EMM / PLAYBACK Designs

I emailed Emm technical support last Saturday. If I don't get the answer by Tuesday may be I'll call them. By the way, have you updated the firmware? May be I'll up the firmware again and play only standard res tracks for awhile as it kind of more natural with better refine details compare to the old firmware.

Yes, I have installed the firmware. Btw, what is the set up you are using for 96/24 and above?

Bar81,

I have a modified mac mini (linear power supply, ssd internal HD, 1 TB USB external HD), wireworld supernova 6 toslink to xds1. It sounds pretty close to xds1 internal transport but I think the internal transport has more open & more air in the upper end. What is your music player and how do you compare it with the internal transport?

Teenill,

I have yet to set up a server or any other kind of digital music delivery device as currently there simply isn't really any hi resolution digital I'm interested in. Hopefully, the selection will improve sooner rather than later and I can justify such a unit (I have the AES/EBU cable just waiting to be used).

Currently, I have my Blu-Ray player feeding PCM 2-channel via coax into the AES/EBU input (almost all Blu-Rays don't have soundtracks beyond 48 khz and 16 or 24 bit depth which is why I haven't tried anything higher).

The wireworld glass toslink is good stuff. I'm using a 5+ for the rest of my entertainment system into the Toslink of my XDS1.

I want you to try something if you can; check your pm.

My new EMM Labs XDS1 will arrive in a weeks time, I am really looking forward to having the XDS1 for my reference digital playback.
