| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm I am waiting to hear back from The Repair Shop, the only authorized Meridian repair location in the U.S. I really like the Meridian. It has a solid feel, smooth drawer mechanism, and is built like a tank but if repairs are too costly the... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Now that my new DA005 is selling down and the sound is somewhat stable after about 40 hours of playing time, I decided to ask my wife if she would be interested in listening to the system with the new DAC. Normally she has little interest and clai... | |
| Santa didnt bring me a $20k linestage It's probably just back ordered. Don't give up hope! | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns I am aware of the limitations of Toslink but I have a suspicion that the CD player leaks current. I have tried coax out in the past and twice I had a reclocker go out. I have not had any problems since switching to optical out. I believe ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @pt999 Thanks for the update! It's good to know that with ample burn in the DA005 closes the gap with the Holo May DAC. I have no where near the hours of playing time on my DA005 but already perceive changes that are very impressive. I am usin... | |
| KEF Reference 1 bass response? Although I do not own them, I have heard the Ref 1s and they are fantastic speakers. The advice you have been given above is spot on. Live with them for a while and maximize their positioning before adding a sub. Be aware that the addition of a... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC It's too bad someone from Shenzhen doesn't respond to the issues which were raised as other dealers have at times in the past when wrongfully accused of poor customer service or unethical practices. The Musetec DA-005 DAC is excellent and I have n... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm I figured out why the CD player digital output shows up as 96kHz on the musetec. The digital output is running through a W4S Remedy reclocker which outputs the signal at 96kHz. When it is removed and the optical output is directly connec... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Anyone know why the sampling rate is 96k when I run optical out from a CD player? Is this a default value, can it be changed? Just wondering why it's not 44k. It sounds incredible already. Female vocals to die for. And I only have about 4 hour... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I received my Musetec DA-005 today less than 2 weeks from ordering and installation was straightforward. I changed my Audirvana settings to straight PCM with no upsampling and listened via usb from a MacBook Pro running Audirvana Plus and optical... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I should add that I do not yet have the DA-005 and so don't know if the Audirvana software will alter the default settings/choices when it sees the new DAC. I'll let you know how I set mine up and if I get volume pops. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @gracky In Audirvana there is a "Native DSD Streaming Method" setting. You can choose from the following 3 choices (in my set up): 1) None: convert to PCM, 2) DSD over PCM 1.0, 3) DSD over PCM 1.1 What do you have that set to? If you have chos... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Anyone else running audirvana and using usb from a mac? I hope I don't have compatibility issues with my DA-005 when it arrives. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @gracky Please post your impressions as the new DAC breaks in. I am hoping to get mine by next Monday or possibly earlier based on your experience. | |
