| Cheapest way to enhance SQ with digital streaming Bumping this thread to say thank you @romney80 Just picked up exactly what you described, fantastic improvement is right! Best $80 I’ve spent! 2 of these between my switch and Sonore UltraRendu: Gigabit Ethernet Multi-Mode LC Fiber Media C... | |
| McIntosh MX121 vs. MX119 for 2-channel I ended up purchasing an MX150 to replace my Anthem D2V. I am strictly 3.1, mostly 2.1. Reason I purchased it was for the Lyngdorf Room Perfect correction feature. It is the best room correction feature I've ever heard. Pure analog 2 channel mod... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @auxinput The first clock I swapped to in the LKS was the Accusilicon AS318-B-100. Yes, it was an improvement, more forward sounding and clearer. At the time I had an Anthem D2V preamp & Emotiva Monoblocks. That combo along with my B&W N... | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC @terrapin77 I noticed you said you had no interest in DSD. I too once had that sentiment. I had no music locally stored that was DSD. However, my LKS DAC MH-DA004 was capable of handling DSD512 so I was intrigued to find some of these files to s... | |
| Best Server To Run Roon Core I am using a Mac M1 mini Running Roon and HQplayer only. I am upsampling everything to DSD512/ASDM7/poly-sinc-xtrr-mp-2s via HQPlayer. Runs flawlessly. The rest of my system: McIntosh Mx-150/MC312 B&W Nautilus 803's | |
| What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please. Here’s what I am using and couldn’t be happier: 1) Mac Mini M1. Sole purpose, running Roon/Tidal/USB HD & HQ Player. I am upsampling everything local and on Tidal to DSD512/ASDM7/poly-sinc-xtrr-mp-2s via HQPlayer 2) Sonore UtraDigital feeds ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns I’m going to confirm the Teradak will work. Just an FYI, I built a NUC8i7BEH with ROCK installed. It stuttered like mad upscaling practically everything to DSD512. That was the reason I tried the Mac M1 mini, pleased with the results to s... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns Thanks for your input I see an LPS and Teradak are available for the latest M1 mini, could you point me in the direction of what does Uptone offer for this?Why do you feel the M1 is inferior to a Nucleus or NUC? I tried both , neither coul... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns @melm LKS-004 mods are:: 1) Replaced the metal oxide trimpots for the IBV section with metal foil Vishay VFR 1240W pots 2) Swapped crystals to Crystek 957X on both the Singxer SU-2 and LKS-004 3) Had I/V resistors custom made by Texas C... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Curious, are any of you using your -005 with DSD512 material? I have a highly modified LKS -004 with a Kitsune Singxer SU2. I am using the SU-2 i2s to feed the -004 from a Mac Mini, running Roon/Tidal and HQ Player. I am upsampling everything to... | |
| McIntosh MX121 vs. MX119 for 2-channel Thought to bump this thread again....I only have a 3.1 setup currently using an Anthem Statement D1 processor.Are you guys saying that the pure direct mode on the MX-119 allows output to the sub, or not? I would love to see how 2.1 sounds through ... | |
