Changes in DAC Presentation - Need Advice
Hey all, I recently purchased a Denafrips Terminator II, and ever since I've noticed that some days the sound is sweet and natural, and other days it is forward and bright. I've even heard the sound change mid-song. Could this be due to fluctuations in my line voltage? Any other reason this may be happening?
System:
Mac Mini running Roon core
Sonore ultraRenu
Denafrips Terminator II
Pass XP-12 Preamp
Odyssey Audio Kismet Monoblocks
Focal Sopra 2
@alvin1118 might have some thoughts. To check on @mahler123 's theory, have no noticed if the OS/non-OS light is changing status? FWIW, I run a Pontus and an opticalRendu, but haven't had your issue, even though I'm in TX in a spot with notoriously wonky electrical grid. When running analog, I find voltage fluctuations lead me to regularly fine tuning the spped read by the tachometer on my turntable. Cheers, Spencer |
Hey @alvin1118 ! @topside3 needs your help. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all. Cheers, Spencer |
@topside3 any update? |
@jjss49 So do I. I would add that having experience adding optical (going from microRendu to opticalRendu) was a big improvement in clarity, spaciousness and lower noise floor. Cheers, Spencer |
