Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
There's a lot to be said for tubes in the system. My Luxman DA-06 runs into a tubed De Havilland Mercury 3 preamplifier and a tubed hybrid Aesthetix Atlas amplifier. Even though I'm returning the Lux for an MSB Analogue DAC, and like solid state D... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Aurender released a software upgrade to take care of the USB handshake. My DSD files that used to have transient noise at the beginning no longer do. It seems clear that it was a USB software issue with the server and not the Luxman. Aurender soft... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
So if anyone is interested, we figured out what's up with the popping. It's the USB handshake between the Aurender and the Luxman. The Aurender streams DSD with AES, COAX, and USB but apparently the USB handshake isn't what it should be yet. Auren... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
After hearing from the Hi-Rez people that their files tested ok, I took the Aurender server out of the system and put my MacBook Pro in running Audirvana. All of the files and tracks that were problems with transient noises are good, no noise, run... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Audioman,I got this answer from Hi-Rez about the DSD tracks popping transient noise before certain tracks play. Do you think it is the Luxman software? I know you had similar issues with one of their downloads.We have thoroughly tested the Holly C...

I've tried a number of power cords with Luxman. I settled on a Furutech F1. I'm going to try the new MIT Style Line USB today. That will replace a Cardas USB. I'll let you know how it goes.I got new DSD files from HiRez but they never responded to... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
I had the same problem with the Elias DSD file and the Holly Cole Temptation file. At first I thought it was the new DSD software running the Aurender, but I checked with Aurender and they haven't had such problems. The Michael Jackson Thriller wo... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Hello Audioman, I have just over 100 hours on the Luxman DAC and it is changing from digital cool and revealing to much more of a lush or what people are calling a silky sound. At first I was puzzled because it sounded very digital but as it's bre... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Listened to my first DSD music yesterday with the Luxman DA-06. Aurender sent a software update for DSD on my S10 music server. Listened to Dire Straits Mone for Nothing, a Shelby Lynne set, Getz & Gilberto, and Holly Cole's Don't Smoke in Bed... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Spent the last month trying DACs. Landed on the Luxman DA-06 (that I bought for change over 4k from a US dealer). My first choice was the MSB Analogue but with the right power supply, it was well over 10K. Close runner up was the new Bricasti but ...
