| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @debjit_g If you decide to buy the WW hdmi, be patient to give at least 500 hrs to it. Though I don't have direct experience with WW ethernet cables but the Starlight 8 is a good buy and not that expensive. I managed to get a custom made WW St... | |
| Need help with Mutec MC3+ USB, Esoteric Clock and dCS Network Bridge Sell the Mutec and buy this: http://www.audio-gd.com/R2R/DI20HE/DI20HEEN.htm 1+2 Word Clock outputs 44.1khz and 48khz go to the DCS NB and 50 Ohm 10Mhz out goes to the Audio GD. Clock cables are expensive $2-3k each you need at least one expensi... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sirnui Hi, So are you also using the L.K.S. DDC or another DDC? Great write up BTW. Talking about clocks many people say an external master clock only works for SPDIF but if I disconnect it from my Aurender everything gets deflated. I'm only u... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sirnui Hi, I see that you have used the Innous USB DDC. What is your evaluation of it? It has a very good LPS and a custom clock for the USB DDC. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @car123 Hi, I'm glad you had a positive experience with the Sonore. If you are looking to take it to the next level (I2s) may I suggest you try out the L.K.S. USB to I2s DDC. Reason being it has a RJ45 I2s output which I have found to be superior... | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? Hi Robert, reviewers get paid to say nice things. It takes a long time to build a great system, do your own comparisons and listen to DSD files if you can. You already have great components they are going to need tweaking to get them sounding the... | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? @robert1976 There's nothing wrong with your DAC it's the Nucleus. Get a decent streamer/server, preferably one you can attach a master clock to, like Aurender N20/N30 or similar. | |
| DAC / USB outputs in MONO? HELP Check the little toggle switches on the back of the Threshold RCA/AES selectors. Try inputting a CD player or something else into the DAC, it's probably the computer. | |
| Having a problem when HVAC system turns on and cuts my system off! Also, you may have a bad starter cap on the HVAC. +1 This. If your A/C unit is old get an inverter type. | |
| SACD iso and DSD noise when stopping or closing music player http://www.gustard.cn/qfy-content/uploads/2021/01/2565a056473ce1f596b356b3684e0d30.pdf There's a whole section in the manual about setting up Foobar. | |
| DAC / USB outputs in MONO? HELP Delete the driver in Windows and download the manufacturers driver from SMSL. | |
| SACD iso and DSD noise when stopping or closing music player Just in case make sure you download the drivers from the DAC website, don't use generic Windows drivers. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm The taping thing is to stop interference between the USB power supply conductors and the signal conductors. Nothing to do with the Amanro Board. I got a very good result so my USB output must be very noisy. @sns I would like to take I2s di... | |
| Need help with Mutec MC3+ USB, Esoteric Clock and dCS Network Bridge @rsjaurr Hi, You cannot connect a 75 Ohm clock cable to a 50 Ohm connection and vice versa. The Mutec has an input for a 10mhz 75 Ohm clock. I believe the DCS NB is 75 Ohm but I cannot be certain. Most non Japanese equipment is 75 Ohm. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns Yes, It would be nice if Aurender gave us more info about their USB but once I taped over the +positive in the USB cable the sound got a real boost. Of course this will depend on what DAC you are using. However from a technical perspective a... |
