| Wondrous DAC A very good DAC for any price as far as I’m concerned! | |
| How to start streaming Thanks everybody else for your posts also. | |
| How to start streaming Lalitk,Thank you. Your post is most helpful.All of my files are .flac files and very many are 24/96 and 24/192 resolution.Mainly what I want to do is access my files remotely from my iPad and/or PCand play them on my system. | |
| How to start streaming 2psyop: I have downloaded many, many files for the purpose of creating CDs of them to play on my system.Just the opposite of converting CDs to files. | |
| Is it possible to buy a decent tube amplifier in the $2000-3000 range? Ghosthouse: Yes, I bought the Multibit, and you’re right. It’s utterly fantastic, especially when it’s broken in. I’m listening to an organ piece right now, and it’s blowing me away!Great listening to you, too! | |
| Is it possible to buy a decent tube amplifier in the $2000-3000 range? Yes, the PV 11 is still wonderful after all these years.Had it looked at by CJ once and re-tube it fairly often.I think I should retract my original post as I no longer feel the need for a new amp after buying a new Schiit Gungnir DAC.It’s amazing... | |
| Psychological effects of volume control Very interesting.I feel foolish for my previous concerns.The DAC is bringing everything wonderfully to life now that I’ve discovered the proper volume adjustment!Much better in so many ways than the Theta I was using. | |
| Psychological effects of volume control I think my problem is just getting used to the new parameters.Instead of “normal” being about 9 o’clock on the dial, it’s now at 11.Still far below the maximum volume setting. | |
| Switched from Yggdrasil to Gungnir Multibit. I can’t nearly afford it anyway.I’ve discovered, to my surprise, that raising the volume control of the amp to unfamiliar levels does not degrade the sound as I thought.I just have to get used to 11 o’clock vs. 9 o’clock on the dial.Happy discovery! | |
| Switched from Yggdrasil to Gungnir Multibit. Thank you peterdamroth. Sorry to hear that. Im using an Oppo player as transport. No problem here. | |
| Is it possible to buy a decent tube amplifier in the $2000-3000 range? Shadorne:Thank you for your input. A more powerful amp may not be the solution.Recapping the preamp is probably a good idea. It’s one of the things I was considering. | |

| Switched from Yggdrasil to Gungnir Multibit. Shadorne: It seems as though ARC doesn’t make a DAC.I can’t find any.What companies would you suggest looking into? | |
| Switched from Yggdrasil to Gungnir Multibit. In a previous post I should have said I’m not a technoCRAT, not technoPHOBE.I probably am the latter. | |
| Switched from Yggdrasil to Gungnir Multibit. This thing sounds fantastic in anything other than classical.Great in a lot of classical, too.What a dilemma! |
