| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? +1, @pokey77 The LinkUp LAN cable is a **new** reference for high performance digital systems without the high dollars price tag. Anyone putting together a streaming system, should audition this cable. The only caveat, the 22AWG version cable is... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @rockrider One would assume that! In grand scheme of things, SoTM recommends using few different configuration of their own LAN cables to get the best out of sNH-10G switch. Not to mention two layers of upgrade option on their switch. I do not k... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? “I recently added an audiophile switch (with LPS), and I was very surprised to hear the highs rolled off dramatically, compared to Ethernet directly connected to my router.” @rockrider What switch did you try? The N20 LAN is 2x isolated so a sub... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev Catching up on your musings…LOL! I see you’ve sold N20 and enjoying Merason DAC1. Personally, I wouldn’t have sold N20 until I’ve found the DAC that checks all the boxes. It’s all good, this is your journey. Just have fun and don’t be afra... | |
| Zavfino I agree @thyname. Including an instructional piece of paper or even uploading them on their website can easily eliminate the ambiguity surrounding the directionality of Zavfino cables. | |
| Zavfino Thanks @thyname | |

| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @dcpillai If possible, I recommend in-home audition. Holo May KTE can be your end game DAC. In addition to premium parts in May DAC, a dual-chassis design of physically and electrically isolating the sensitive audio circuitry from the noise-gene... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @jl35 Some electronics are inherently noisy. Check with manufacturer before you drive yourself crazy trying to isolate or eliminate the hum. All the electronics (solid state) in my system are dead quiet…no hum or white noise. When I owned tube e... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC “I will be saying hello to the Holo Audio KTE Spring DAC! ” @dcpillai I believe this would be a sound move, I’ve heard nothing but high praises. Which version of Spring DAC you would be auditioning? | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC “I am leaning towards waiting” I would too or move on to something else. I wouldn’t buy a component with a known issue, period! | |
| Educate me about DSD @soix I recommend downloading a sampler of your choice from NativeDSD.com. They have quite a few options. | |
| Educate me about DSD @curiousjim The possible reason you can’t tell the difference because majority of DSD512 filed are upsampled. I said it few times, the upsampling adds nothing but noise to the original file. @soix The good thing is, we have a choice. We can c... | |
| CD and Network Streamers @martineaud A wise choice at this juncture of your journey into streaming. Vault 2i will allow you to stream with a very good user interface app (iPad recommended) and doubles up as a ripper/storage for your precious CD collection. Take your tim... | |
