| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @boxer12 Welcome aboard! We are all sure you'll love this DAC. Hard bit is getting past the break-in stage, but once you get there you'll realise why we're all very committed to this DAC. It's enabled me to spend lots more on cables | |
| Aurender Conductor App +1 This ^^^^ Your Aurender and iPad/tablet MUST be on the same internet network you originally paired them on. This causes 99.99% of problems. Example, you go out and use mobile internet, get home and my Aurender doesn't work anymore!!!!!!!!!!!... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Ok let's lighten things up a bit and enjoy the music.....hey why not? Here's 3 tests for streaming/server or whatever, they are not easy to produce perfectly digitally so give them a try. 1. Carpenters, Ticket to Ride at 30s single cymbal hit, c... | |
| I2s DSD If you want to get I2s from your Oppo you need to get an I2s board from Oppomod.com https://www.oppomod.com/index.html The Chinese black box will only separate audio from video afaik, no I2s. There is no cable standard for I2s at present so eit... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @fl_guy I believe center positive is standard. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @dbb No I haven't but I guess it'll work off the USB cable power alone and it comes with a 2.1mm connector to USB that you can plug into any USB outlet or phone charger. Believe me it's worth getting it. I could never go back to USB into the 005 ... | |

| Most Realistic Recordings @achipo My Aurender N20 can play native DSD 512 | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @car123 All I can say is I'm getting the best music I've ever heard in my system using the LKS 100. Maybe it has something to do with system matching because both the 005 and 100 are LKS products and we are talking just milliamps mA for the I2s c... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @batvac2 | This is a peculiarity of all ESS chips, which cannot be heard At minimum the continued presence of the hump represents inadequate engineering skills and testing equipment. Audio companies using this chip - including Weiss - have engi... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @yage All very well and good but what happens if a poorly measuring DAC with off the charts jitter and every other negative factor performs with the voice of angels in blind listening tests? Would ASR then be recognized as the clown factory that i... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @curiousjim Silver plating wires and transformer windings helps to mitigate "Skin Effect" where the current tends to travel around the surface of the wire. Whether or not silver plating is better than a solid silver transformer is better is quest... | |
| Best progressive rock album side More psychedelic than prog. Dark Star / Grateful Dead / Live Dead It was all downhill from there. Close to the Edge / Yes A tour de force of prog. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I imagine Musetec are reviewing their options at the moment, maybe they will do their own tests. ASR is not a licensed testing agency and in the real world their comments hold no credence. As was said earlier if a DAC with poor test results sound... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC We can go around and around chasing our tails but to be honest how many car and bike manufacturers publish HP at the crank and not the rear wheel/s. Musetec couldn't give a monkey's what ASR thinks he's got 1.5 billion punters on his doorstep, wh... |
