| The MQA debate is finally over It's worthy of note that few have come forward here to champion MQA as a superior format unlike those chumps over at Stereophile, TAS and the dealer owner of Audioshark. Hardware companies will now stop touting their dacs with MQA decoders. Lol. | |

| would innuos mk3 streamer benefit from network filter You can tweak the Settings for better sound :- Go to Settings -> Audio -> Select low latency -> Advanced Settings -> Compact music library database -> Clear queue cache | |
| Bel Canto E1-X Dac Guess no one here owns an e1x dac. | |
| Bel Canto E1-X Dac Thanks for sharing, mmcelyea. I happen to be a happy owner of the Esoteric N-05 and it sounds like you prefer the N-05XD over the Bel Canto. I guess I should seriously consider the N-05XD as an upgrade. | |
| Bel Canto E1-X Dac Uses the legendary Burr Brown PCM 1792A chip. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 For a read out of curiosity, the Stereophile review of the Audio-GD is now out on their website. Provides insights on other dac’s. | |
| Esoteric N-03T streamer with Roon or ? It is interesting that the app plays a significant role in SQ. It is quite established that Roon, Soundstream or other third party apps differ in SQ depending on one’s set-up. That said, the in-house Innuos app for my Zenith server beats all oth... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Beware of Audio GD. I had two of them. The last one would not play DSD as announced. After 40 messages with the omner, he said he would refund me. So I sent the DAC to China. But the Chinese customs held it up and wanted to charge import duties. ... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 The 10 Audio review was for the standard version and Stereophile reviewed the HE version which has an upgraded power supply that adds about $1200. Not sure if the upgraded power supply would impact the difference in SQ between upsampling and... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Found another review. Big difference is the reviewer here prefers upsampling while Stereophile prefers NOS. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Sorry guys, I read it from a subscribed copy. It is not on their website. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 I have just read about the $5,000 Audio GD R-7HE Mk2 dac in the latest issue of Stereophile and it took my breath away. Included in the review is a very good comparison with the sound of the Holo May, Denafrips Terminator and Mola Mola Tambaqui. ... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT3-MK3 wins over Aurender W20SE I agree with @lalitk that a well mastered recording in any format would sound excellent. @brandonhifi It would be fair to compare the same master recording amongst all formats and come to your own conclusion as to how your money would be next w... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT3-MK3 wins over Aurender W20SE I am afraid you are comparing apples to oranges. Playing a CD off a transport should be compared to playing your burnt CD flac files, rather than with streaming. There are too many variables associated with streaming like speed and bandwith pecul... |
