| Splitting Signal to Multiple DAC’s @djones51- Hello and thanks for the shortcuts. I spoke with the folks at Henry sometime ago as this was one of the first distributors I had seen. These are actually made a few minutes from where I live. The question with this one comes back to t... | |
| Splitting Signal to Multiple DAC’s @spatialking - Thank you again for your advice on this- it’s really been helpful. Quick background with Sonifex- I made an inquiry on their devices earlier this year, they make both active and passive. I didn’t care for their active SPDIF distrib... | |
| Splitting Signal to Multiple DAC’s @bruce_philly Hello- I just came across a thread you started 5 years ago where you mention using a Mutec 1.2 as a throughput device to stream your music playback to multiple DAC’s and CD player. I’d like to ask if you’re still using this device... | |
| Need help with Mutec MC3+ USB, Esoteric Clock and dCS Network Bridge @rsjaurr- I just came across this post while searching for user info on the Mutec MC3+ USB. I was wondering how your experience with it has gone as I’m considering it as an option for routing multiple DAC’s from a single source. Did you ever work... | |
| Splitting Signal to Multiple DAC’s Very interesting reading from @spatialking- getting more into it seems as though clock issues with the SPDIF data stream with increased jitter/distortion potential makes this not so simple (at least from my perspective). Sounds like the answer may... | |
| VAC preamps - too expensive? @jumia- It seems like you’re always steering back to home theater and that’s cool if you’re into that. I have a lot of friends who love music but want their system to do both. Why not try out these products- https://www.trinnov.com/en/products/a... | |
| KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? @elliottbnewcombjr- Hello! I can't speak to which testers would be considered real or better than others- I just did some quick reading on the products suggested by others. Those were the Maxipreamp, Amplitrex and Space-Tech Labs. It seems there ... | |
| Splitting Signal to Multiple DAC’s Correction- meant to say “when compared to active splitters” | |
| Splitting Signal to Multiple DAC’s @spatialking- Hello Robert- thank you for the response. When thinking about this early on I thought about giving this device a try. This is pricey but not outrageous when considered to other active splitters out there. FYI- just to clarify I wou... | |
| KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? After a little reading and putting some more thought into this I’m realizing the reality of this (at least my reality!). As @mulveling first suggested- my system uses 4 different makes of tubes. A gang of 8 KT150 and 11 6H30’s. My DAC uses a coupl... | |
| KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? @elliottbnewcombjr - thanks for the response- I’ll send you a pm with the short list of tubes | |
| Upsampling, Can there be too much? @roxy54- Do you use an Audio Note DAC? If so- which model? | |
| KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? @mulveling- I hear you and thanks for the warning. My curiosity was driving my actions on this one- I had to know how long they would last. This confirmed that the recommended usage time of 2K hrs was accurate and from what I’ve learned here I’ll ... | |
| KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? @elliottbnewcombjr - That sounds like good advice. Are there specific units you've had experience with for home use? BTY- the tubes I have are wasted! Stubborn me! I thought I'd try to see how far they could go but it's to the point where they won... | |
| KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? Got it! I remember reading many posts some time ago where people were wondering whether that tube was compatible with amps designed for use with KT120’s. I was not aware that ARC had made the change. Thanks for the clarification on that- I bet it... |
