| Hermes added, question Thanks @fthompson251. I am away and won’t be home until tomorrow. That’s when I’ll try the config on I2S and/or go direct with USB cable…I initially didn’t think it was the config due to it only happening on certain tracks. Kinda quirky which is w... | |
| Hermes added, question Thank you again @cforsythe. I also use DH Labs 2.1 HDMI...Very helpful indeed. I'll start with 001 on Pontus and go from there. | |
| Why Do ~You~ Still Play CDs? Thank you @soix! That's what I'm hoping my Hermes will do. I have about ~20 hrs of play time on Hermes so I haven't sat down for a critical audition to see the difference. Ran into my slight noise/distortion issue which I am dealing with as you kn... | |
| Hermes added, question @cforsythe Thank you! That is super helpful as it sounds exactly like what I am getting! That is great to hear and I’ll try that first actually. Alvin from Vinshine also thought it was the I2S settings. What HDMI cable are you using? | |
| Why Do ~You~ Still Play CDs? I just got into streaming less than 1 year ago. Whilst I held out for many reasons (large CD collection that I own, couldn’t wrap my brain around “renting” music), I can honestly say I love it! Almost life changing😂! However, I still find CD’s to ... | |
| Hermes added, question @gkelly Thank you! Good info. That is awesome you met Bill. He seemed great, answered every question/email right away! @audioman58 Thank you for the info. I did set Hermes to 000. I never set Ontis as everything seemed to be playing fine and t... | |
| Hermes added, question Thanks @gkelly I always leave the Symphony on high setting. I have never switched it to low or medium. Are you thinking that maybe a low or medium might help? | |
| Hermes added, question Thank you @soix! Another vote for less is more - definitely going to start there. USB cable (DH Labs Mirage) direct to Hermes.. | |
| Hermes added, question Thank you @gkelly for the link to the article! | |
| Hermes added, question You know I hate inconsistency! Like if the static was there all the time, great. The intermittent inconsistent stuff is what keeps me up at night🤦🏼♂️😂 | |
| Hermes added, question Thank you @fthompson251! Also very helpful and a good read. It didn’t say anything about any negative side effects, but I totally am on board with the “too much of a good thing”. Makes sense. And I had thought of bypassing the USB as I also run my... | |
| Hermes added, question Thank you @painter24! Very helpful! Were you getting the noise on all tracks or just some? That's why I'm a little perplexed. I know the I2S can be quirky... I can certainly play with the settings on Pontus and see if that eliminated it, but b... | |
| Need help, what am I missing??? @audphile1 how would I configure NAS for the Brennan? The only output it has is Toslink? | |
