| Benchmark DAC2 seeting into Ayre k5exMP preamp Another piece of info. On the Ayre K-5xeMP the gain is 10db through balanced inputs, so it made a perfect unity gain doing the -10db on the Benchmark analog output. | |
| Benchmark DAC2 seeting into Ayre k5exMP preamp Oldest good info. I'd rather not mess with my Ayre Lol, way more than the Benchmark. The output pads adjustment has fixed any issues and sounds really good. I heard a huge improvement in sound, depth and more resolution on Steely Dans Aja....A gre... | |
| Benchmark DAC2 seeting into Ayre k5exMP preamp Thanks shadorne. It made huge difference changing to 10db posts.Sounds really good, especially on some HD tracks i have at 24/192 playback. | |
| Benchmark DAC2 seeting into Ayre k5exMP preamp I set the Benchmark output jumpers to 10db which is minus 10db and all is fine now. Sounds very good, I can already hear improvement over the OPPO 105d DAC. Seems like this has solved the issue probably to your point cedargrover. Thank you | |
| Bluesound Node2 with outboard DAC mahler123, What I was meaning as far as connectivity I should have said connection / disconnection issues. My Oppo BDP105D on a regular basis while streaming disconnects from my tablet I use as the controller. So I have to reopen the app, go back ... | |
| Bluesound Node2 with outboard DAC Uberwaltz and Mahler123. Thanks for feedback. I figured outboard DAC would be better. Question I'm asking is using a good or really good DAC like a Mytek Manhattan is the Bluesound worthy of good enough and quiet source to be worthy of using with ... | |
| Bluesound Node2 with outboard DAC I have read that Toslink cable only support 24/96 resolution, not 24/192 and HiRes files. Anyone confirm This? | |
| Ayre preamp no output Update on my Ayre 5-XE, got back from Ayre after they performed the MP upgrade to the unit and fixed the resistors fried by possibly a power surge from the meter being changed. I must say they have inceedible service and the MP upgrade is making a... | |
| Ayre preamp no output Uberwaltz... had I known they were coming I would have done that, but the thing is there was no notice, letter or call they were coming around changing meters. I was at work and not home and came home to a flyer on my door what they did. Really ki... | |
| Ayre preamp no output Talked to Ayre and they said something must have fried, since im sending in for upgrade may be very minimal extra charge for parts to fix. Cant wait for the 2 upgrades with Maximum Performance upgrade. They say it makes a huge difference | |
| Ayre preamp no output Thanks for the ideas. I tried and all i get now is sputtering/ crackling type sound not very loud thru each input all off Oppo input only. Funny I just talked to Ayre about the MP upgrade now it sure needs to go in. | |
| Pre amps cost vs. value ... what I discovered last month. Brianlucey, Have you listened to Ayre or Mark Levinson preamps? They are very highly acclaimed and neutral sounding, not adding color to the music. I believe Boulder is known for their amps. May be true some companies master amps, others preamps, ... | |
| Does anyone leave their amp and preamp on all the time? I have an Ayre preamp which is always on unless you unplug, they recommend leaving on. I recently asked Harmon Luxury / Levinson tech support about my Mark Levinson 532h amp about leaving on or putting in standby, they recommended leaving if liste... | |
