| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I found the 005 to be a competent DAC but not for me and so I returned it. @romazicon would you please care to elaborate what you didn't like from this dac and what are you using currently in place ? | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC The Musetec was on USAudiomart for only 5 days and the asking price was $2900. As it sold rather quickly I’m guessing the asking price was met, or close; that’s just a guess. If so, that’s pretty good, I think. Many folks paid under $3000 for the... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @lordmelton for any digital components, DACs, DDCs, music servers, the power supply is going to make the most of the difference and it can either make or break a system. If you are introducing the DDC in between the 005, you should seriously consi... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC While I'm here is anyone using the free power cord that came with the 005? It's absolute garbage, swap it out for immediate sonic improvements. Seriously it's only fit to use on a kettle. all audio components, irrespective of their price, co... | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 Did the Nano-flo unleashed to the world ? Just curious if they have been offering for sale yet ? | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses @twoleftears yes, I am aware of littlefuse but have never tried one. Interestingly, their Gold and Rodium series, which would have been the preferred one for audio, is not stocked in any reputable electronics store and there is a minimum quality o... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC There was one 005 for sale in usaudiomart just a few days back. I asked the seller what DAC he preferred. He courteously replied that he preferred the Holo Audio May by a good margin. Most DACs in this price range are mostly system dependent. 005 ... | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses After living with the Purple fuses for quiet some time, I took all of them out from my system. Not sure if it’s my system but for some reason the Purple sounds a bit artificial for my taste - sometimes the soundstage is forward and brash with some... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC AFAIK the 005 is NOS If 005 works primarily in NOS mode, then one might try myriads of HqP filter/modulator combo to see if they like the sound of it. It all depends on personal taste - some like, some just don't. and there is no facility ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Up-sampling externally from s/w, like hqplayer, is only helpful when the DAC can work in a NOS mode (non over-sampling), otherwise the sound quality is mostly determined by the SRC within the DAC itself. Good candidates for nos DACs are T+A, Holo... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I agree with @klh007 Lumin P1 or the X1 is very good alternative to Cary dms series but they are also lot more expensive. I think P1 runs around $10k, unless you get a substantial discount :-) ? | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @benzman thanks, I can clearly see what you are trying to say. I was in the same boat early, however from experience with various AKM and ESS, including 9038pro, the AKM usually provided a more smoother sound compared to the ESS, while the ESS has... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @benzman I am very curious what did you lack in the Cary dms700 which prompted you to buy the 005 ? The Cary seems to be a very good DAC along with the streamer. Perhaps you wanted different sound ? | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 @rixthetrick thanks. the info will come out anyway, so Agon putting censorship will probably not last long but I can see that they are merely following their policy. I have owned The Gate and Omega emats from late Tim/PPT and know effective they a... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @car123 what DAC were you using before ? |
