BAACH two week report

@tump350  For first time use I was guided over the phone for plugging in and use. At time of purchase I was questioned about DAC having right imputs for use w/ the Baach.  It did. 

I had guessed correctly what plugged into what. But waited for Sensei to guide me  

I should be able to plop down later today for some more enveloped listening. 

@tump350  Before is in the past. For my rig the Grimm streamer/Weiss DAC bested a Lumin X1. Simpley put that marvellous Grimm (oxymoronic wording) is now three dimensional, fuller if you will, than before. Not every recording has various instruments floating at different clock points but even poor recordings fill out more. 

Putting my chase in terms of money, spending on this would have saved it’s price many times over if this was the only fancy thing/tweak added. I know that’s a big claim. Sure a lot of it drops the noise floor but BUT wowzer. 

@kennyc Don’t think it degrades sound. It sure is different. Lovely

For first time set up it needs a monitor and keyboard to use w/ mini. After that (mac uses command K) it works from my laptop using screen sharing used only if needed access to tinker. I aslo have made several screenshots of the setup and have used once to reset after a hickup.

If you get they will query you to make sure yr. DAC will work. My whole house system needs one setting on DAC (several Roon endpoints) and the Basch needs another (one Roon endpoint). It’s one button press

@kennyc I think the mini can be the core too but I don’t know but they will. USB IN is used on my DAC for the Baach. But again they will know if yours is good to use.
