| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Melm, I can understand lemonhaze's use of if. There is a lot of hype out there these days, understandable that one may have doubts and or cynicism in a general sense. We shouldn't be overly sensitive to those questioning this dac, being so only i... | |
| Time clock sync devices Well, streamer is last piece of equipment prior to dac, points to having large impact in final sound quality. I'll continue to say until I'm blue in face using motherboard usb out of servers directly to dacs is what gives streaming a bad name. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC There is a distinction to be made with playback vs recording in hi res digital. Every one of my listening sessions includes both original digital and analog mastered recordings, so we're talking all recording from sometime in 80's back all being a... | |
| Time clock sync devices @lordmelton Believe you mentioned this product previously, relatively low priced for what it offers. I do like the integrated nature of this, reduces clutter and cabling. Would be nice to see direct comparison to Sonore products although not exac... | |
| Prioritizing Power Cable Upgrades by System Component. I'd probably agree with amp first, but then you only expose another weak link with each PC. In the end all equipment is important, but I guess you have to start somewhere, can only say I'm happy I'm done with it. I too keep previous upgrade cables... | |
| The best way to start adding A=analog to my system @ghdprentice I couldn't agree more! While I'm not at point where my vinyl setup on par with streaming and cd rips, I do hear the convergence as painstaking work on my digital setup has provided much more analog like sound quality. My take is grea... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm I hope to explore this very soon via an acquaintance building serious server dedicated to running highest level dsp with HQPlayer. I can only say my explorations with Roon dsp have been disappointing at best, I hear an 'electronic haze' or ... | |
| Time clock sync devices Above white paper is critical for understanding the necessity for optimal matching of network equipment. Get it correct and you'll have wonderful imaging soundstaging and more natural analog like sound quality, wrong, and you'll get overly precise... | |
| I am so happy..... We have differing goals for our systems. Still, how can you really know when your upgradis is done. How much time without a single change needs to go by to prove you're really over this journey? By the way, why is upgrading one's audio system ... | |
| A slant on RFI Get a quality TriField meter and you'll find where the real EMI/RFI fields emanate from. I'll guarantee you that mobile you were talking on is one of those fields. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? David Ackles, 'American Gothic', criminally unknown, great songs and storyteller. New World Renaissance Band, 'Odyssey'. | |
| GOOD TUBES, BAD TUBES In regard to new Chinese power tubes. I've purchased from both North American and Chinese sellers over the years. A number of things to be aware of. First, Chinese sellers are selling from common Chinese stocks, these tubes may or may not be relia... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Yes, this dac cannot be properly evaluated without at least burn in time on usb input. Comparison to Briscati should be informative, Briscati formerly on my to buy list along with Aqua Formula, Holo May, Mola Mola Tambaqui, Playback Designs, a... | |
| The price of used LP's. @bdp24 I haven't been searching out any local to me used record shops, or heard of record shows coming here, but being able to purchase albums for $3-$10 apiece, that is amazing! The guys selling at those prices must be getting huge liquidated al... | |
| Streamer vs renderer vs music server...help @crandell25 Your not alone, streaming is easily the most complex system within our audio systems. I have vinyl setup, and even taking into account every little nuance of this pales in comparison to streaming. While we all have our experiences ... |
