| Denon DN-C640 Network CD Player From the literature I understand that you can access audio files over a network from the front panel. So there is no need for you to play the audio files with a media player in the pc. This way you could play the audio files stored on an external ... | |
| What sample size and rate to rip? I think that it also has to be considered the quality of the software that does the upsampling. At this moment one of the best SRC software, if probably not the best, is Saracon from Weiss, but it's very expensive.http://www.weiss.ch/p2d/p2d.htmlh... | |
| Wow Windows Vista sounds sooo much better Here is a post (#39) of David A. Hoatson, co-founder of Lynx Studio Technology on harmony-central.com :Vista will work just fine if you are only using ASIO, since that bypasses everything Microsoft. If you do use the WDM driver (MME/DirectSound/Di... | |
| What sample size and rate to rip? About the resampling... I just thought that maybe would be better if I upsample in the pc to 24/96 and then send the data to the DAC. This way a DAC that upsamples to only 24/96 wouldn't have to do it in real time anymore, just the DA conversion. | |

| Reference DACS: An overall perspective Hi Rene,Yes, I think you're right about the DSD signal, unfortunately. I looked throgh the 955 manual and it says that the source must be capable of DSD P3D operation (3 AES XLR outputs). Also, it can be used with a DSD source that has SDIF and wo... | |
| Reference DACS: An overall perspective Great thread guys!I still have a curiosity though. Reading this thread I noticed that nobody mentioned the DACs made by DCS and Weiss for the professional market, the DCS 954 & 955 and the Weiss DAC1 MK2. The reason I'm interested in these DAC... | |
