| Best affordable Linear Power Stage @sizzitrail84 i don’t know the difference just went with the one specific to the uDDC. | |
| network switches and cables. My original set up was Innuos Zen MK 3 to Denafrips Terminator 2, which sounded quite good, connected by Pinetree Audio USB cable. I have since added as follows: SmoothLAN Network Filter>ZenM3>Pinetree USB cable to LAIV uDDC>I2s cable Wi... | |
| SmoothLan Regenerator from Stack Audio I have a SmoothLAN Network Filter and have experienced similar results. The next step up for me was the LAIV uDDC experiencing very similar results on a large scale to what you describe, the combination of the SmoothLAN with the uDDC. Is outstandi... | |
| Best affordable Linear Power Stage @scp I found the better resolving your system the better the uDDC will deliver. Great addition to my system. I just ordered the LHY LPS, from Vinshine Audio for $185.00, seemed to be a great value and has been advertised to be linked with the LAIV... | |
| Best affordable Linear Power Stage @tyray @trivema Thanks went with LHY as you both noted, the specific one for the LAIV uDDC noted on Vinshine site. | |
| Best affordable Linear Power Stage @steakster thanks for the Aura recommendation, looks very interesting will check into it. | |
| LAIV uDDC Arrived Another finding, the DDC really benefits the presentation of the soundstage and inner micro details at a low volume. Really enjoying this relatively modest priced unit. Everything sounds better through it including my CD player. Hope to see some m... | |
| LAIV uDDC Arrived Noting further sonic improvements on days 2 and 3. Something interesting, My Bluesound Node 2i is receiving more benefit from the DDC than my Innuos Zen MK 3. May be tied to the Node is running off Coax and the Innuos is USB. Not sure if that matt... | |
| LAIV uDDC Arrived I don’t know a lot about clocks but me and my hifi friends hear a big sonic improvement on my system as I noted above, it’s a great sounding piece. Also has a nice lift on Coax and AES inputs. I’m actually pleasantly surprised knowing the T2 has a... | |
| LAIV uDDC Arrived @soix Im using the Wireworld Sphere 48. @brbrock me too. | |
| Has it all been worth it? I hear what you’re saying. I currently own the best system I could put together. I also had a stroke a year ago (definitely causes me frustrations with things, including my hifi daily expectations), some days I love the Hifi some days I think what... | |
| Discerning a difference between streamers is difficult...only me or common for all? I have a Bluesound Node 2i and a Innuos Zen 3, the Innuos sound is much better than the Bluesound for me, however, I am surprised at how well the node sounds when looking at the price comparison, I think the Node benefits greatly from me running i... | |
| System assessment... Nice system, if you come to Chicago visit Quintessence Audio, great store with 3 rooms and systems in each room based on Hifi tiers, I also extend an invite to come hear my system , I’m in a Chicago suburb, also retired now 6 years. I’ve built my ... | |
| Retirement System Finally Completed: Impression of the Mola Mola Tambaqui Congrats on the MMT and your retirement system. I retired 6 years ago and my system has given me many years of great listening pleasure, so glad I have it. The MMT has always intrigued me, but being retired does limit my interest levels in more Hi... | |
| Separates vs Integrated Integrateds that are dual mono based perform very well, my Sim Audio 700i is a great Integrated dual mono based,. I believe the Hegel you mention is also dual mono based. |
