Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark Taking delivery 2morrow. A month on the boat, 2morrow to the door. comparisons? My Brit 1SC ProAc’s, Mystere PA11/Denafrips Hyperion, Athena preamp, Benchmarck Dac3/SMSL VMV D2, Rotel Tribute CD player, VPI turntable, Bobs Sky, Dynavector. Som... | |
Denafrips Athena- is damn good Shite faced dunk? Maybe. At least I hope so. But Athena is a great preamp. If u can live with a single rca input and lotz of balanced. It’s sounded great with everything I put up or downstream. She’s a beast compared to her two little sisters... | |
Is a cheaper DAC + Reclocker better than just an expensive DAC? SMSL VMV D2 + Gustard U18 DDC is a really, really nice combo. The DDC will bring out more of the dacs essential character. In the VMV D2’s case using its I2S input along with the DDC’s better clocks is a pretty nice performance leap. Same D2, ju... | |
AKM makes the best DACs Added the Gustard U18 to the SMSL. VMV D2 AKM Dac for about a month now. All I can say is wow, just wow…. More of everything you love about AKM chips, everything is everywhere. Big air, open and spacious. Take what a great power cable does to a... | |
Any hi rez radio stations? Roon upsampling this mp3 stream from a Roc nuk feeding a vmv d2 sounds very, very good. No need for a high definition broadcast imo… http://mountainchill.com/ | |
Upsampling PCM or DSD in 2022 Roon Roc Nuc upsampling to 256 DSD feeding a VMV D2 is not ‘bright or hard’, but smooth and quiet with loads of detail and great separation and layering. Backup vocal singers are beautiful and easy to follow on say a John Gorka selection. The AKM ... | |
EAT E-Glo Petite Hybrid phono stage hifi59, that is good info, thanx 4 sharing. I’ve a Petite for a while now and run a pr. of Bugle Boys from a Bob’s Sky SUT and a VPI Traveler, Dynavector 20xL. Those 59’ Baldwins sound like something I should check out… I can’t see moving on fr... | |
AKM makes the best DACs Here’s a review that came out a couple weeks ago. Pretty much nails it… https://soundnews.net/sources/dacs/smsl-vmv-d2-dac-review-class-leading-d-s-dac/ | |
AKM makes the best DACs Replaced my Benchmark Dac3 w/the VMV D2 since a bit b4 last Thanksgiving. No regrets, but still haven’t tried the I2S connection. Looking at the Gustard U18 DDC, so maybe soon. It’s a great all round performer that utilizes the AKM 4499, and fed b... | |
DAC Question: Delta-Sigma vs R2R I’ve the new SMSL VMV D2 in my setup, replacing my Benchmark Dac3 HGA, both delta sigma but with very different implementations of differing chip sets. Both r really good music makers with enough features to keep the serious hobbiest happy. Both... | |
Anyone try modern 6sn7 Shuguang WE type vs NOS RCA,Ken Rad I run the Shuguang WE6CA7 Plus in a Mystere PA11 and really like the tubes performance. Wish I could get a quad of the 6SN7, but…. They have a pure, un colored sound compared to EL34. Very nice tubes. | |
Benchmark DAC3 vs. Denafrips Pontus II audphile1… thought u might like this. Still enjoying the D2 running Roons dsd 256 processing but trying to figure out the selectable frequency clock settings to optimize data rate inputs… Clock frequency: 10MHz/ 11.2896MHz/ 12.288MHz/ 16.9344M... |
