| Chord Dac @danym I’ve been listening to the Qutest for over two years and loved it. Chord uses FPGA chips which are very detailed/analytical and if not matched with the right cables can be very bright. I bought all Cardas cables since they are very neutra... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II Sorry, not a coaxial from your computer | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II When connecting the I2S from the DDC to either the pontus or the venus, are most of you using a USB or coaxial cable from your computer or streamer? Is one better than the other?? | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @gladmo Yeah, I tried the NOS and felt the same way. Just lost the detail the OS provided. I reviewed the Bricasti M5 and it sounds like a very nice streamer. Can I ask if you bought it new or did you find it used? Also, what power cord are you... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @gladmo Hi again, buddy! I’ve researched the tubulus comcentus i2s is an amazing cable. I’m thinking about the iris but after reading your post, maybe I should step up to the hermes. Last night was the first night I feel in love with the pontus ... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @gladmo Which HDMI cable are you using from you hermes to your pontus ii? | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @marco1 Wow, what a difference! I have a few cheap pangea and audioquest power cords on hand just in case I need them. I had the pangea hooked up to the pontus until I could audition a few higher-end cords. I auditioned the transparent last nigh... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @ryder I’m interested to know which DAC you are considering over the pontus ii. I do think, halo makes some amazing DACs and wish I could have tried one of their models before purchasing the pontus ii. I really do like the pontus and think the s... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @ryder I just bought a pontus ii and don’t have 200 hours on it yet. I was using a Chord Qutest and read all the amazing reviews about the pontus ii, so I thought I’d give it a try. I also read it needs at least 300 hours before it fully b... | |
| Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle @gladmo Thanks for the FYI regarding how to notify a person if I reply to their post. Your Furman is a very nice conditioner. I’m using a Audioquest Niagara 1200 which is not too bad but I’d like to step up. It’s awesome that the duplex corrected... | |
| Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle @gladmo Thanks so much for your review of the Purple duplex. Can I ask if you are using a power conditioner, and if so, what kind? Also, do you think there is is break in period? I bet there is and if you would be so kind to let us know if the so... | |
| Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle Lordmelton - Thanks for the suggestions. Have you tried any of the QSA fuses to compare to the Power House Zero 2 Extreme fuses. I’m very interest to know which QSA fuse (color) I can compare it to. Thanks again for your suggestions. | |
| Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle Painter24 - I hope you are well. I love my Atoll IN300 and think Atoll is an amazing hifi manufacturer currently flying under the radar. The IN300 is a very warm sounding solid state integrated amplifier. The sonic character is tube-like but wit... | |
| Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle lordmelton - Thanks for responding to my post and offering a recommendation. I’ve never heard of Oyaide R1, but will look into them before purchasing a hifi receptacle. Regarding the new SR Purple receptacle, SR states the technology behind the... | |
| Compare Space Tech Lab DACs vs Lampizator DACs??? I’d love to know more about the space tech lab DACs. I’m looking at the Lampizator Amber 4 DAC would like to know more about the sound quality of the different space tech DACs thamls |
