| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC BTW what’s Amir’s favourite band or CD? Topping. Many I know bought those DACs based on those squeaky clean measurements from ASR tells me that it’s the worst purchase they have ever made in their audio journey. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @debjit_g I was just using an expensive laptop. Lots of people wouldn't believe me that I could run Windows Server 2016 on a laptop. With Jplay. @lordmelton i actually suspected but you just confirmed. I can see why you would prefer the n2... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Exactly the same as me, after my Wadia 781i shat the bed. Many years with Jplay but I've had my Aurender N20 since about 6 months now and it truly is a different ball park from computer audio. No doubt that the Aurrender N20 is a great music... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Taiko runs an optimized Windows 10 ltsc. There has been lots of proprietary optimization in it. The best driver is no driver and Linux and Apple support this protocol. Not really. Every OS has a driver for a chipset. The chipset canno... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @romazicon good post and thanks for the details. I have gone through Amanero usb board in some DACs, like earlier Lampi, and do prefer the XMOS in certain aspect of details and clear sound it provides. There was some explanation (I forgot where) a... | |
| 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... |
