| Can I play a 192/24 file on my Digilink III? ....and I should have added.....or upgrade to the NuWave which has a much better USB implementation and 192/24 as well on every input. | |
| Can I play a 192/24 file on my Digilink III? If you get a USB to SPDIF converter, like the M2Tech HiFace 2, you can then connect to the digital coax input and at least get 96/24 native and better sound quality overall at any resolution. | |
| Can I play a 192/24 file on my Digilink III? I don't think that DAC can play 192/24 files on any input.I think the max native resolution is 96/24, and the USB is limited even further at only 44/16 I believe. | |
| DAC woes - what to do "But what Ive noticed that that, while the instruments are individually defined, they tend to get "lost" in the vast stage. Its very difficult to place them in relation to each other.....But more and more, especially with "busy," intricate voices,... | |
| Ethernet Cables I retired from the IT field myself.....all the way from old school telecom using coax to 10/100 ethernet. I really don't care what I've learned or what should be or shouldn't be. I've always kept an open mind to the unexplainable. There have been ... | |
| Ethernet Cables I was using a cheap Belkin 25 ft UTP CAT-5 cable to connect my PerfectWave to my router. I then bought a cheap SSTP CAT-7 cable to see if it made any difference. I swapped them back and forth several times and my impression was that the CAT-5 was ... | |
| What Exactly Does "Burn In" do for Electronics? "Is an audiophiles aural memory infallible? Of course not. Therefore the differences you think you are hearing could easily not be real"If that's the case I guess you could turn it around and say the differences you think you don't hear could easi... | |
| DAC significantly better than a w4s DAC2-DSDse? Ha ha....what else is new :^P | |
| The Power of Assumptions And this is something new? Sorry, but basically it's one of the same premises that have been used by objectivivsts for decades. | |
| Hi-rez download advice needed I don't think Airplay supports 24/192 (24/96 max?) and I think iPod's/iPad's are limited even more in what they support. As for your Marantz, what model is it? It should state in the manual max resolution via USB. | |
| Your First Concert was..... ha ha...may I sincerely apologize for insulting your intelligence. | |
| Your First Concert was..... 1968 at the Fillmore West in S.F. I saw Deep Purple, It's A Beautiful Day and Cold Blood (Deep Purple was actually 2nd billing!). I was about a month away from my 16th b'day. The following week I went again to see The Jeff Beck Group and Spirit. B... | |
| Smoke contaminated component Open it up and place a few of those Fabric Softener dryer sheets in there for a few days. Those will get rid of a lot of the odor. | |
| Best DAC/preamp for under $2K? Used PS Audio PerfectWave MKII. They've come down a decent amount since the DSD version came out. You can likely even get one w/ bridge for close to 2K so you can connect it directly to your router for streaming. | |
| Best cheap speaker cables............again Kimber 4TC. You can get it bulk for around $10 per foot and then use termination of choice.. Great speaker wire. |
