| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? It's football playoff weekend, there are 4 pages of suggestions so it's going to take me time to sift through it all. | |
| DAC shopping - Trying to sift through the Hype. Can I trust the reviews these days ?? Update on the Terminator 15th. Now after 500 hours on this thing it just keeps getting better, must be all those resisters, caps etc burning in. It has opened up a great deal, I can just listen to this DAC for hours on end easily. All solid state ... | |
| Hermes added, update Try the other USB cable. You don't experience this on any other input on the Hermes right? If that works its the DH Labs cable. Next bypass the USB to the Hermes and go direct to your DAC. If it disappears it's the Hermes. If not then it's th... | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? I DID take the suggestions and I grew my playlist. There are so many in this thread it has become overwhelming but over time I will try them out, I put something a my Jazz playlist while ago and got scolded because it isn’t Jazz. Hell I didn't k... | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? OK, well it seems that I am ruffling some feathers here. Hence the thread title, I'm out. Thanks for all the advice. | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? @stuartk look up that recording if you have a streaming service and you will understand-it's a cover but with quite a twist. Definitely Jazz! | |
| Hermes added, question @kingbr I don't think you are following me. Do not change your pin out configuration, it's not the problem because the other two sources RUN THROUGH YOUR HERMES and that I2s cable sound fine. It can't be the pin out or they would present the same... | |
| Hermes added, question I honestly don’t think the pin out is the problem because you said it ONLY happens with the USB connection from your streamer. The other connections (Coax and optical) to your Hermes play fine yet ALL of them go through the I2s from Hermes to your... | |

| Final Touch Sinope USB? I will add the Audience frontrow Reserve USB into the mix, I love mine. | |
| Why Do ~You~ Still Play CDs? I agree with @soix , since my streaming set up has eclipsed the sound quality of my CD playback set up I don't listen to them much anymore. Only if i can't find it or i just feel like spinning a CD. | |
| Hermes added, question OK good, let us know if that helped. | |
| Hermes added, question Well your call, take it out and see if it improves, if not then try your USB cable. Sometimes too much of a good thing turns out to not be so. It appears to be some kind of filter for ethernet but I don;t understand why a person would run more USB... | |
| Experience up-leveling streaming with USB cables? I have an .75M Audience frontRow Reserve USB which is superb. NOT inexpensive though. I too am thinking the shorter the better. | |
| Hermes added, question What is a ADD-Powr Symphony? Could you have a bad cable between it and what it’s connected to or a bad USB cable? Usually a pin out problem will be consistent as it has nothing to do with the source beforehand. |
