| can Line Magnetic 210ia work in US? That Line Magnetic marketed to China domestic market, they run 50hz, we run 60hz. Also, even if you run on 240v, 20v over voltage, I wouldn't do it. This idea has been brought up before on AG. On top of voltage/hz issue there is warranty and serv... | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. And so, I'm told to rely on measurements, both my SET amps total failures based on high even order distortion. And then we have my SMSL amp I use for burn in purposes. I have no doubt the SMSL measures better than both SET amps, so is the vastly i... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @car123 Looking forward to your impressions. I used the Cardas usb for some time, my present AQ Diamond bettered it by large margin. I've also tried various cat config generics,various AQ, Supra, Wireworld Platinum. USB cables make a difference. ... | |
| The past meets the future I really enjoy both mediums, the problem with that is expenditure goes up in great measure, I don't doubt a commensurate amount to equalize sound quality. Unlike Ghdprentice, my analog has a way to go to catch up to digital. Greatest liability... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I don't doubt I2S preference is valid by some, usb has some inherent liabilities and even more in it's implementation. I2S is what it is, every dac on par using this input, the variables would be DDC and cable used. USB requires optimal implementa... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Well, for myself the issue is settled since I'm now totally committed to optical since hearing it's clear benefits vs. ethernet. The only way I'll ever directly connect a server to dac is if it had optical out to streamer/dac with optical in. ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @lordmelton I'm rather suspect in regard to usb implementation on N20, not much info on that in their literature. I suspect coming directly off motherboard with some unclear optimization. Also, what usb cables did you use? Also, its been my ex... | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. This is not magic nor am I trying to insist my reference for sound quality is an objective reference. I am very mindful of my own unique sensory perception, biases, preferences, and I allow others those same considerations. I simply don't understa... | |
| Why Does My Current Music Sound So Much Better than It Did in the 80’s? Yep, mostly digital recording and playback innovations, 80's digital was atrocious. | |
| Why Do You Post? Too much of what goes on around here is rather alienating to me, excessive provocations, anger. Don't mind arguments about audio, but political posts in audio forum is not a reasonable post to my mind. Also, the personal attacks should not be acce... | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. @realworldaudio Thank you for stating what should be obvious. Of course some believe we've already discovered all there is to be discovered. Why not just shut down any research into audio reproduction and human sensory perception, we already have ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @debjit_g Totally agree on the usb galvanic isolation. What amazes me is so many of these off the shelf servers/streamers use usb off motherboards! How do they have the nerve to charge these prices for crap usb outputs, this is what gives usb bad ... | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. Perhaps some day they'll innovate a robot that replicates my sensory perceptions and attaches a measurement regime conforming to those preferences. The robot can make the rounds. listening and measuring every component existent in the world and r... | |
| 432 EVO The optimized usb is nice, many relatively high priced competitors can't even do this. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I feel I should expound a bit on above post. I stated 005 color as analytical to neutral. Ultimately, I feel the 005 is a neutral piece, with the possibility of sounding analytical, it will never sound warmed over. I'd describe 005 as a high strun... |
