Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
@turcoda  @kairosman  I've had my 005 for a year now and have followed the very busy 004 forum on head-fi (4353 posts) for over 5 years before that. I've read about a lot of interaction with Jinbo and have had some myself.  He is proud of his prod...

@turcoda I don’t see the point of a USB card. In effect the DAC is your USB card. If you send it back to Shenzhen, tell them it’s defective with the video as proof. That should minimize your cost to return, perhaps to nothing. They might give y...

@turcoda If you’re a software engineer you must know more about this stuff than I do. But, the laptop I use is a small old ASUS running a Pentium and it works perfectly using JRiver. I have often thought that because it’s cheap and small (runni...

@curiousjim  It's for the remote.  
Holo May KTE vs Meitner MA3
@abramsmatch  An erstwhile reviewer in these parts, I just wanted to compliment the common sense approach in your carefully written posts.  I look forward to your next post when the weed wears off.😀 @branislav  One quickly learns that the correla...

@turcoda Sorry to hear about these difficulties. I have been using this device for over a year now with absolutely no problems. I use it primarily to play music but have used it with videos, both from DVDs and streams, though with my set-up sound... 
How do I get the best soundstage?
Azimuth, azimuth, azimuth. Correct azimuth provides maximum separation, the critical step in sound-staging. Small adjustments can be heard. All these folks are telling you many things including how to spend your $$. Fact is, if it doesn’t come of...

@dbb  Your post is, as always, enlightening.  As you write, it is a matter of perspective.  I remember old posts on Audiogon suggesting that the Holo May R2R provides a middle-of-the-hall sound rather than the up-close sound of a SD chip.  This i... 
Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired
Given a number of recent posts on this very subject perhaps this thread could use a lift.

@debjit_g This post comparing the Musetec and the Holo May was by teknorob23. He had earlier written here that he preferred the Musetec to the $13,400 Mola Mola Tambaqui. And, of course, I’m certain based on a lot of reading on the subject that ...

@ja_kub_sz I'm looking forward to your report-comparison to the $13,400 Tambaqui.  They've already been compared on this thread by someone.  I love these David v. Goliath trials.

@romazicon  I appreciate your last post.  It provides plenty to think about. But I would ask again for you to tell us where you bought and returned the 005.  As I wrote, there have been many posts about returning the DAC.  As yet there has been ... 
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
@romazicon  Thanks for your forthright comment.  No one, I think, has said this is the best DAC of all or that is the DAC for everyone.  I wonder, though, if I could ask you about two things. You said that you returned the DAC.  At one point in ...

@lordmelton  They sold (or sell) a matching LPS for it.
