| Pass Labs XA30.5 in my system? I had the RS-6 a few years ago, very nice speaker. I used a McCormack DNA-1 which sounded good. My local dealer had the RS-6 hooked up to the Ayon Titan and wow the sound was amazing, the speaker came alive. You'd probably be thrilled with the XA,... | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? I purchased a HOLO Spring DAC Lv 3 Kitsune, I’ll compare with my other DACs in the coming weeks and post it here and also over at HF where I’m known as Audio-68. | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? PMBOYD, Soekris dac1101 and Denefrips Ares. Gonna sell the Soekris, however, as I couldn't get it to fully work with my new MicroRendu setup. I also have the new Audio-GD S19 that doesn't fit my personal liking; I enjoy hearing inner detail over t... | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? Celo, we each have our own experiences and I'm not trying to discount yours, I've just had a dissimilar experience.I'm able to hear differences in similar priced gear. I've owned 6 different DAC's in the sub $1000 range and I've yet to hear two t... | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? I've heard tremendous differences between DAC's. I've awoke to the fact that we live in a new era where price doesn't necessarily dictate performance, especially with DACs that utilize multi-bit R2R technology. | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? "Have you directly compared the Ares to the well-regarded dacs from Metrum and Schiit? "Not yet; I've only compared the Ares, Soekris and Audio-GD to each other, all recent purchases within the last couple months.Two months ago I also purchased ... | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? I'm currently comparing the Audio GD to Ares, both have approx. 150 hours so far, I'm leaning toward the Ares right now. | |
| Mccormack DNA 0.5 schematic/service manual You've likely blown your fuses on one side, remember you have two of them per side. Very easy to replace. I've owned a McCormack DNA amp for several years, and on rare occasion have had it happen. | |
| Metrum Musette or Schitt Gungnir Multibit? +3 Denefrips Ares R2RAnother R2R to consider? Soekris dac1101. | |
| Soekris ApS dac1101 another discrete R2R Multibit dac. Veil | |
| Soekris ApS dac1101 another discrete R2R Multibit dac. Straight out-of-the-box the Soekris lifted a vail from the music. I heard greater separation of vocals from the instruments, better placement of sounds, slightly wider soundstage. Every song sounds different, clearer, smoother, right. What a great... | |
| Soekris ApS dac1101 another discrete R2R Multibit dac. Thanks sbank, bought the microRendu with LPS. | |
| Choosing a Network Player/DAC I have some initial impressions of the Soekris I can share. To avoid hijacking this thread, I will post here: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/soekris-aps-dac1101-another-discrete-r2r-multibit-dac. | |
| Choosing a Network Player/DAC @gaareneau I'm burning to hear it myself. I received the Soekris (took only 3 days-amazingly fast shipping) last week but my 2009 Mac mini is running Snow Leopard and won't play the Soekris. I suspect some sort of incompatibility with older OS X... | |
| Choosing a Network Player/DAC You may not need the USB isolator. Lots of people report however the isolation improves overall sound. YMMV |
