I also have the Kassandra and its best connection is via USB. Have you looked at other options for streamers besides Grimm MU1?
Any one use Grimm MU1 with Aries Cerat Kassandra ?
Hey folks, I just got a Grimm MU1 and I’m going to use it with my Aries Cerat Kassandra. At first I got no sound from my speakers and after taking the Grimm to the dealer, I realised that I had the Grimm was in 4X over sampling mode (Where all reviews say sounds best). MY Kassandra doesn’t accept 174.4 khz with AES/EBU, big bummer. It would play 88.2khs, 2x over sampling. I use that sampling rate and leave the DAC in native resolution. I can also use the MU1 in no oversampling and re-clock that signal in the DAC. I’m worried that I’m missing out on the best that the MU1 has to offer and considering getting a DAC that accepts 4X oversampling. Does anyone have these two components paired, I’d like to hear your input if you do. Thank you
