| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Guido,I did. Forgot to mention it. When I started to detect some deficits in performance I swapped back to MY USB cable and alpha digital PC. I wanted to make sure it was not the PC or USB cable affecting my impressions. I ended up listening to my... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Oh. Alex's post reminded me. All of that was with the DSD128 setting. To be honest I forgot all about that setting. I'll listen when I can to DSD64 to see the differences. There is definitely a recognizable flavor to the PCM to DSD DAC's (DSD-S, D... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD UPDATE:Initial impressions of the DSD-SAs Alex requested: I used his power cord, his USB cable, plugged the DAC directly into the wall and uploaded Audirvana.

I wonder how much a big VTL amp or MB... | |

I have been advised to either run 2 separate 20 amp lines or one single 20 amp line. My amps can pull (according to the stats) 10 amps at peak... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD The DS was very good, but not close in my system compared to the other kits I was trying. As Bill_K noted, results will vary dramatically based on a million variables. Many find the DS to be their final stop on the way to DAC heaven; and I am happ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Missing link. Not missing like. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Still Point Apertures. I was lent them by Merrill. My room is shared with my wife so I can't do anything permanent or wall hanging. I can put the Apertures on wood stands and set them up when I'm listening. But I haven't had time to do it yet sinc... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Rsf507 - if your going to insult me, don't do it right on my thread....Actually it's funny. I decided a while ago that what I want to accomplish is in my hands. I would have been done with my ODSE very happily. The DSD is in my room because Alex o... | |
