What's up with Innuos?
@grannyring & @arafiq ​​​​good points and agree!  
What's up with Innuos?
I love the app, honestly there are a few minor issues but nothing that’s deal breaking. I find the sound quality excellent. I’m just bothered that I can no longer submit bugs which I always do just to let them know for future updates. And secondar...

@sns any tips on optimization of the network? I have a cat-8 Ethernet to my Innuos MK3, but otherwise that's it, nothing fancy. If you did run I2S, how would you do it? I’m tempted to try the Gaia since some reviews claim a sound jump when used ... 
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
I've been doing more listening with the I2S and will drop the DDC and just run USB from my Zenith and see what my ears think. I thought I2S had advantages over USB as far as data separation and was reading up on peoples reviews on the PS audio for... 
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
I too am loving this DAC, I’ve been ripping all my CD’s onto my Zenith and using a Matrix 2 SPDIF DDC with separate LPS and I2S to the 005 and XLR to my Technics SU-R1000. This DAC has become the star of my system and am really happy I made the ju... 
Next best exponential DAC quality level?
My experiences have been in the $150, $500, $1,500 and $3,500 realm and the largest quality jumps to my ears were had at the $150-$500 (65% sound improvement), then most notably at the $1,500-$3,500 (85% sound improvement). Moving between $500-$1,... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
When your wife looks up from her phone and goes "this sounds different, did you buy something new?".  
Has anyone used the new Innuos 2.0 Sense music app? Compared it to Roon?
@mahughes thanks!  
Class A amplifier alternative?
I just had a really good outcome with running my Cambridge Audio Azure 851w's (A/B) in a Bi-amp dual mono setting (200/350) and you could go bridged mono blocks (500/800), though I hear the 800w is generous. Best part is you can find them for $700... 
$39K for the Linn Klimax DAC/streamer?
Well... At 40k I know I'll never own one, but I sure would like to hear one. Just to see what I'm missing other then 31k. It is fascinating though.  
Has anyone compared a Douk DDC to the MATRIX Audio X-SPDIF 2?
I’m presently just using my Matrix 2 via i2s connection to my musetec DA005 DAC.My streamer source is my innuos zenith Mark 3, I honestly am struggling to hear a Monumental difference between USB i2s between my source setup and The Matrix. The big...

@dbb Funny you mentioned Goldensound, because as soon as I watched the Gustard X26 review I asked on Youtube to review the 005.But yeah, I boxed up my X26 after the third song while listening and am never lookong back.Very excited to have this DAC... 
Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired
Just got my 005 and my jaw hit the floor upon first listen. Only got about an hour worth of listening, but immediately I knew it was something special after the first test track. Big step up from my Gustard X26 Pro.Thanks for the review @dbb 
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
@sns Well you're 100% correct. Just got the DA005 and it blew me away right out of the box. Did a 5 song listen on the Gustard and as soon as the DA005 got it's turn my jaw dropped!The sound field is excepllent and it brings out clarity like I've ...
