| I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!! Streaming sound quality extremely dependent on entire streaming chain. Stream sound quality should equal rip quality once you have streaming chain optimized. As for recording quality, all over the place, this for both physical media and stream... | |
| LAIV Harmony I just purchased Harmony, based on reviews, usb implementation in this dac and R2R dacs in general, I2S input is necessary for best performance. To this end I'll implement either Musician Phoenix or Denafrips Gaia DDC with high quality HDMI cable ... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship Harmony already shipping, 006 still waiting. In the meantime Harmony vs. 005 will be interesting. Mostly I just want to compare timbre between an r2r and sabre dac, so many claims of how r2r is more 'natural' sounding than sabre chip dacs. Ano... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship In the interest of comparison I purchased LAIV Harmony dac. Many positive reviews of this dac and I'm interested in hearing a R2R dac vs. Sabre chip 006. | |
| Which External Linear PSU Upgrade for my Router? I've never not heard an improvement when using lps on streaming components, Presently using combo of Teradak, Uptone JS2 and JCAT ATX on every streaming component, same Teradak has been running two different Netgear routers, present XR1000 24/7 fo... | |
| Fiber or Eithenet Don't understand why anyone would convert to fiber at end of chain, converting to fiber should be done at beginning of chain. Cheap fiber converters certainly not optimal, and transceivers do make a difference, industrial grade Finisar 1475 was my... | |
| The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD Sakogear makes sense in my case, vast majority of my vinyl stored away, likely never to be played again, prior to my streaming same situation. I've always maintained around 500 vinyl in listening room and I likely really only rotate about 100 on s... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @dbb How did you order direct from Musetec, via exchange of emails? I've never seen purchasing portal at their website. I'm not happy with Shenzhen, misspoke the other day, actually ordered 9/27, have inquiry in to them for over two days, no ... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @dbb Cool! Love my Statement, even in complete stock form a great pre. You have to use Psvane WE101D's in order to extract maximum resolution, transparency, these best 101 tube out there, and I've tried many. The Linlai Elite solid plate is also ... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @melm I agree the subjective is far more important to me than the objectivity of some measurements when it comes to audio equipment, especially dacs. I rereading ASR 005 thread it just reinforced how objectivists don't trust their senses. I'm curi... | |
| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship I'm curious about how this dac would measure vs. 005, certain Musetec aware of ASR thread. Would they care about measurements with this dac knowing some make purchases solely on specs, others require both high measured performance and sound qualit... | |
| Are REL the most Musical Subs? Rel's are unique in that they are meant to be used with the speaker outs on amps, this is the essence of why they integrate so well, the amp determines it's voicing to some extent. As far as extension, Rel has several different lines, the No. ... | |
| The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD I don't get the aversion to streaming if the intent of this hobby is the music. Streaming easily beats out any physical media for easy access and affordability. Between my cd's, vinyl, cassettes, reel to reel I probably have well over 10k physical... | |
| Are REL the most Musical Subs? In my experience Rel subs easily most coherent sub I've tried, I'm running two and they simply act as extensions of my Klipschorns which provide strong in room response down to 32hz. Boom and spectacle in bass not my thing, for that I have Genesis... | |
| Digital Reclockers are they worth the extra Effort - IMO YES Having high quality clocking within streamers/servers and dac negates necessity of external clocks. |
