| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @car123 though I don't have direct experience with ultradigital but I have had Sonore products, Singxer and other DDCs before. I would venture a guess and say that a Singxer or a Denafrips would be at a much higher level than the ultradigital. Sin... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC The LKS can perform its singular function without drawing power away from the DAC’s other responsibilities. I think there would be less noise kicked back to the DAC’s power supply as well. @debjit_g I think there may be some confusion. The L... | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? The Tambaqui is a very neutral DAC and you are actually hearing the recording artifacts. Higher model Lampizator is not going to sugar coat a bad recordings, which most of the rock albums are. Those DACs will be more detailed and are supposed to b... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC The LKS converts and reclocks the digital signal. And perhaps more importantly, it does this powered by its own power supply that is separate from the DAC’s power supply. I am not aware of ANY DDC in the market, regardless of price, that doe... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Pink Faun builds an I2S bridge (similar to USB card) which can be used with any ATX motherboard with PCIe slots. This for folks on the DIY route. I wanted to try one for a long time when I had PS Audio DS and the Terminator but it had limitations... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns +1 on your post. This is exactly what I was trying to say in my earlier post as well. There is much to be had from the USB and with the right implementation it will sound very good. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @lordmelton I am not sure what server you are running. Its possible that the server doesn't have a good optimized usb implementation and that is why you prefer the i2s ? With a good usb implemented on the server side, the tables can turn up-side d... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @debjit_g Yes, I understood that, I was just relating the AQ to WW in general sense, presuming same metallurgy so perhaps same sound signature with all cables of that particular model. Its possible I could be wrong here? I could be wrong but I ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I wasn’t talking about the usb cable at all. In fact I didn’t like the WW platinum, neither the AQ diamond in my setup and I have gone through a fair share of 8-10 different brands. My current favorite for the usb cable is the one from NA. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @lordmelton burn-in of cables and components are real whatever the skeptics says. Most of the time in my systems, the sound becomes intolerable during the break-in process - they would be harsh, no bass, exaggerated midrange, collapsed soundstage ... | |
| Fed rate increase = lower hifi prices? Hifi prices are already outrageous and will only go up. Many manufacturers have already increased their prices and more to follow, even in the upcoming recession. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns I don’t think i2s is the solution to all the problems. The only reason why i2s is provided in today’s DAC is just because its a native interface to the DAC chip and hence easier to implement. Something along the lines of MSB pro-isl might be ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I own a FW SIT3 as well and its a wonderful sweet sounding amp. Another SS Amp that gets my recommendation and sounds very similar to my SET is the Enleum 23R. Very impressed with it. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC what made you choose the Sonore ultradigital over others ? Sonore products are ok but never sound bigger in my setup. For small/desktop system, they might be very good but not if you have a bigger one. The Singxer, AudioGD, Gustard, Denafrips has ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC as for the standard or the lack of it, it has evolved into couple different ones - PS Audio, Rockna, Gustard. Most manufacturers are following PS audio and some, like Denafrips has configurable pins assignments. Funny thing I still remember when ... |
