Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! Freddy Cole, Merry-Go-Round SACD by Telarc (SACD-63493) really sounds good with my SA-10. It was directly recorded in DSD format. | |

Music Server - The Search Begins I have Sony HAP-Z1ES but don’t use it as a server, just as a hard disk player with USB connection to an external DAC. Only one internal 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD can fit and there’s only 1 USB port. It does support USB hub (USB CD player, external hard di... | |
DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... @smodtactical if within your budget, why not consider Marantz SA-10 which has built-in, good quality headphone amp? It’s a reference-class CD/SACD player with USB (Type A and B) and SPDIF inputs. You need to read more about SA-10 DAC-less convers... | |
Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! @elizabeth do you have isolation transformer or other power conditioning device in your system? I use Torus AVR30 wall mount (I live in 240V country). It was only after I have the SA-10 I know the true capability of my system.My SA-10 is in its ... | |
DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... A couple of days is not enough. After about 2 months, I heard no more improvement. Please don't remove the AC power but you can put the Terminator on standby. | |
My old wavelength audio DAC is still usable @dangcaonguyen pls read this:http://bobtalks.co.uk/blog/science-mqa/mqa-playback/The first unfold is done by your Node 2.If the external DAC does not support MQA, then Node 2 will output either 88.2 or 96 kHz. You will not get full decoding which... | |
DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... Saleh, you should wait a bit longer before Terminator really sounds good, from my own experience around 2000 hours. Are you only playing ripped CDs? What about ripped SACD in DSF or songs purchased online in DSD 2x format, does it work through AES? | |
Sony HAP-Z1ES and Denafrips DAC No problem at all with USB Audio between Z1ES and SA-10. | |
Sony HAP-Z1ES and Denafrips DAC Marantz SA-10 is a different class of machine. If you have the money, yes you should get SA-10, but you will have to wait. Availability is a problem.My Sony HAP-Z1ES is using the latest firmware. | |
Sony HAP-Z1ES and Denafrips DAC @thelefthand I don't have any experience with Soekris 1541. Have you tried switching the USB Audio Mode 1 or 2?My Terminator still has problems with DSD playback when used with Z1ES. Recently I tested Z1ES with Marantz SA-10 USB Audio Input, no ... | |
Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! @roxy54 I started with Ayon CD-07, then tried Sony HAP-Z1ES internal DAC, not happy as Ayon sounds better. Both of them use Burr Brown 1796 DAC. Then I purchased Denafrips Terminator R2R DAC 4 months ago, using Sony as a player with USB Audio co... | |
Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! @milpai @jafant thanks. yes I plan to share comparison of my digital gears.A few things I found out during the first day of use. I’ve tried USB A and B inputs, coax not yet. SA-10 sounds the best when I play CD or SACD using its transport. When pl... | |

All IC XLR. 3 x 1.5m Organic Cable p... | |
Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! I received my Marantz SA-10 today after 3 weeks wait. Out of the box, it terminated my vinyl rigs and DAC. I never know my system can sound that good; very high resolution, precise imaging, and good layering. I am hearing a lot of things I neve... |
