| RME ADI-2 direct to amp mofojo OP Which MSB do you have George? Do you run amp direct with it? The MSB Discrete R2R Ladder Dac that I do run direct, because it’s remote control digital domain volume is a few clicks off full up so (no bit stripping) at the level I listen... | |
| Class D Isn’t Jeff Rowland (hardly a bargain basement brand) still using Pascal modules?YYes, which are just tweaked Chinese Sanway subwoofer module’s, and Red Dragon use them also at 1/5th the price. 1st pic is the $10k JR Contiuum S2, 2nd pic is the mod... | |
| Class D Stop baiting George and, George, stop taking the bait. No bait, just bad info that needs to be corrected. | |
| Balanced vs. Unbalanced Inputs Balanced vs. Unbalanced Inputs First off you need to ascertain if they are "real" balanced outputs or "real" balanced inputs.As many outputs are really SE, and an opamp chucked on to it to give pseudo balanced output, in this case your better to ... | |
| Troubleshooting my Dac My amp uses this outlet, set to a 30 second delay and is the last component to receive power and the first to be turned off. That good if as below and shows someone was thinking when designing it.ON: Amps take 30sec to come on after everything ... | |
| Holo Audio May DAC The May is extremely clean and extended with great tonality across the frequency range. It paints an amazingly tall and wide picture across my soundstage. The AM-T3SE is a little less even handed, but provides more body and "meat on the bones." It... | |
| RME ADI-2 direct to amp When I tried it 10 years ago with my Wyred it worked as well, just sounded hard albeit more detailed. My mate has a WFS and it too is hard when doing PCM Redbook compared to my discrete R2R MSB, which has even more detail and dynamics. I think ... | |
| RME ADI-2 direct to amp What I mean is one says it, then another and another.It’s an unwritten law the output to input ratio should be 1:10 or better eg: 1:100 Not many look at the specs to see if the ratio of what the RME output impedance is (100ohm), and if it 10 x les... | |
| RME ADI-2 direct to amp I’ve been using my RME ADI 2 Pro as a preamp direct to power amp (tube, soild state, and class D) for a few years, as well as a headphone amp, without issue. This should never have been bought up in the first place, the REM ADI 2 has 100ohm outpu... | |
| High end Class D amps? Isn't class D just prepackaged class ab? Na, they're HF power oscillators that try to make sound.Cheers George | |
| Troubleshooting my Dac jfmerk All of my gear is powered on via programmable outlet This is not a fix for your problem, but I see a potential big one switching everything on at once.As your Odyssey amps could be damaged by switch on thumps from anything before it. Am... | |
| RME ADI-2 direct to amp gakerty I’ve run my ADI-2 directly into my poweramp (Rogue ST100) and it sounded good, albeit a bit drier and less full Definitely can’t be a impedance issue, your Rouge is 200kohm input and only needs 1v in to for full power out, no problem goin... | |
| New DAC for Sony SCD-777ES SACD player.? jafant Short answer to your question, no leads on that one, just as rare as the Sony BU-1E I answered your question, but it got removed.By "some pleb" who thought that me saying "those lasers are as rare as rocking horse ****" was offensive and ... | |
| New DAC for Sony SCD-777ES SACD player.? 6:30pmgeorgehifiif you have a line on a Sony KSS-272A laser, contact me.Happy Listening!Might as well ask me for rocking horse shit. They are about as impossible as the Sony BU-1E laser.Cheers George | |
| RME ADI-2 direct to amp Yes definately try direct, you may be very surprised. Just looked that dac, it is the swiss army knife of dacs and uses a AKM (Asahi Kasei Microdevices) dac, not bad for a delta sigma dac, I prefer R2R ladder dacs.Cheers George |
