| Accuphase dac 60 @duketbrd88 I think it would make a very nice pairing with E-380. There is another DAC that gets lots of high praises is MHDT Labs ORCHID, but I wouldn’t recommend it with E-380. Accuphase sound is already lean towards warm so you don’t want a t... | |
| Accuphase dac 60 @duketbrd88 Keeping in mind your issue with DAC60 and Node consideration, I recommend looking at external DAC like Denafrips Pontus II. I think you will be much happier with a DAC like Pontus in the long run. You have lot of options under $2K :-... | |
| Accuphase dac 60 @duketbrd88 The burn-in process is very real and it applies to both *new* cables and electronics. There is a reason you love E-380 and the DAC60 is no exception, its designed to work seamlessly and if I may say so, beautifully with E-380. Be pat... | |
| Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital? @david_ten Great advise! I intentionally held back any advice on network optimization in my original post. For all we know, the OP may ends up with Node 2 or equivalent which seems to be gold standard for many newbie’s and Vinyl fanatics…LOL! W... | |

| Accuphase dac 60 @duketbrd88 The DAC60 option board should be installed in slot #1. The slot #2 is for optional phono board. Please make the swap and let us know if you hear any difference. Also what is your source and how it is connected to DAC60. | |
| Accuphase dac 60 @charles1dad The DAC60 is a dedicated digital input board that simply decodes incoming digital signal and inputs directly into preamplifier analog section. @duketbrd88 What is your digital source? And what slot did you install the DAC60 board... | |
| Its not vinyl +2, @jond That’s exactly what I have been trying to accomplish for past couple of years. And I am loving what I have been able to put together! | |
| Request recommendations to purchase a streaming device For video and audio streaming, HIFI Rose 150B is a great recommendation. Please sign up for Qobuz (music) once you pull the trigger on 150B. Also, a wired Ethernet connection is recommended. | |
| Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital? @blisshifi I am currently using ACS100 for exactly what its designed and intended within a high end digital front end. I use ACS100 to rip, store CD rips and DSD downloads. Since Aurender supports ‘RAVENNA’ protocol, I couldn’t have asked for a ... | |
| Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital? “I think is the best performer in its class and has been claimed by many to unseat the even more expensive Aurender N10. ” @blisshifi IMO, the revamped Aurender lineup clearly excels over its predecessors in terms of low frequency extension and... | |
| Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital? Great, looks like you have the Ethernet sorted out. Lots of options under $10K, you should consult a dealer who can give you options based on your existing system and preference like separates (DAC plus streamer) or one box. Since you’re new to di... | |
| Accuphase dac 60 RE:Gain. It is very common to have different gain settings between two devices from different manufacturer. I don’t understand what is the issue here? So what if you have to increase volume by 15-16db, it shouldn’t matter as long as you are not pu... | |

| Network Bridge/Streamer only for Qobuz In your budget, look into iFi Zen Streamer + LPS or a BlueSound Node 2 (bypass it’s internal DAC). The Node app is pretty robust and gives you easy access to many cloud based streaming platforms. One of the important part of streaming experience i... |
