| Streamers with I2S connectivity I’ve not added a DDC yet. I’m actually now thinking of going with the Musica Pristina A Capella III. I’ve read a lot of great things about the unit and it uses I2S.......I’ll follow up when I pull the trigger. | |
| Streamers with I2S connectivity I haven't made any moves yet as I was waiting for the Denafrips DDCs to come out. I'm still using a Bluesound Node 2i for a streamer so I'm looking at either the Hermes or GAIA since they accept Digital Coax input. If I had a USB streamer, the I... | |
| DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... I spent about three hours of listening to my own music last night and had no dropouts. This was playing from a USB drive I have inserted in the Node 2 running thru the Termy. Most likely the issue is with Tidal itself as @jaytor suggested. If I... | |
| DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... @jaytor , I will be trying with my own files today and will report back later tonight.@david_ten , thanks for all your hints so far. I've checked my router and it's on the latest firware. Same thing with my Blusound Node 2 that serves as my stre... | |
| DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... Wanted to find out if anyone else has had any audio drop out issues with the Termy. I bought one used a couple months back. I have occassionally had issues with drop out, and it seems to have gotten worse last night when listening to a Fleeetwoo... | |
| Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500 @rbstenho, what setup did you go to that utilizes I2S? I have a terminator with I2S and am looking for a streamer that utilizes I2S. | |
| DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more.... Wow @david_ten , that’s quite the piece you are replacing the Termi with. Congrats on the new device. Would love to hear your comparisons. At five times the price it should blow away the Termi..... | |
| Streamers with I2S connectivity Thanks to all for the responses so far, and to rdoc for selling me the Terminator. Loving it thus far. Blows away the dac in my Node 2, as expected.I ordered a Wireworld Gold starlight 7 digital coax cable. That should help. I’m hoping the suggest... | |
| Denafrips Terminator reliability? @facten I have not listened to the La Voce S3. I don't have any Aqua dealers in the Chicagoland area. But from what I've read in my research, the La Voce comes in under the Terminator. The La Scala is the one on par with the Terminator, but is ... | |
| Denafrips Terminator reliability? I hope Denafrips is back this year. I missed them in 2018 at Axpona. | |
| DAC recommendation with tube preamp Thanks @canibefrank. I found that thread and have pretty much dismissed the C658 as an option. There's a dealer in NJ that gave it good reviews, but, as you said, it had to be paired perfectly. I'm looking for a piece that isn't that picky. I'... | |
| DAC recommendation with tube preamp It seems I did miss something. The DS Jr is no longer a product for PS Audio. With the coming release of their cost no object DAC, they're dropping the Junior. So where I'm at right now is probably getting the Schiit Yggy and then a separate st... | |
| DAC recommendation with tube preamp And did I miss something, the DS Jr is no longer offered on PS Audio's website. Did they discontinue it? | |
| DAC recommendation with tube preamp Is the DS Sr that much better than the Junior? Last time I checked, the Sr was out of stock till mid 2019. Seems that PS Audio always runs a big sale at the end of the year and blows out all their stock. I saw it in 2017 when I was searching fo... | |
| DAC recommendation with tube preamp Thanks for the suggestions so far. I do want to clarify that I’m looking for a DAC that does conversion best first and foremost. Preamp and streaming abilities are not necessary with the other equipment I already have. @kalali, your suggestion is ... |
