| 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 ? | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @ricevs I’ve been thinking about your detailed suggestion for rewiring the Nenuphars and wonder why you wouldn’t just procure enough of the wire you are using internally to go from voice coil to amp, skipping "speaker cable" altogether? The int... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Nelson uses Cube f8 in OB https://www.stereophile.com/content/gramophone-dreams-26-nelson-pass-harmonic-distortion-page-2 | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure The Nenuphar is single driver and crossoverless. Where would one utilize a capacitor in this speaker? I was thinking maybe as a bypass cap to see if anything yields interesting. may not be a good idea after all :-) | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @grannyring thanks for the feedback on the Vcap odams. Yes, I agree with you that they have an open and a bit bold character which may not be suitable for this speaker in particular. I am making an assumption these speakers don’t currently ha... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure He definitely had the Enleum...not the Bakoon. Guess it was the 23. His speakers are AG Duo’s and Fleetwood Deville. Obviously different results with different speakers so take it for what its worth. The Valvet is about Half the price of the Enle... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Thanks @david_ten it's indeed helpful. Did anyone of you here upgraded to v2 and can share your experience ? | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure My buddy just ditched the Higher Enleum (53??) because he preferred both the Luxman 595 and Valvet E3 SE in his setup. There is no Enleum 53. I think you might be talking about the Bakoon. Which speaker ? | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure I have been meaning to add a Vcap ODAM in the Nenuphars. I have some on my linear power supply filter caps but I have not done played with it with the speakers. Anyone has any experience on how they perform on speakers ? | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @stephendunn since you mentioned the Enleum, I just looked back the posts and realized that I have never posted about it. Recently I snagged one from a local audiophile buddy who was using it as a headphone amp. He has never hooked it up the speak... |
