| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm you make a couple good points, and have given me some ideas to ponder. Great point about the power supply and analog out. In my experience I’ve had some equipment, like a Music Hall Dac, that had a fantastic analog output, making it an ove... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I am at about 100 hours into owning and playing my 005. I’ve been running my Aurender server non-stop since setting up the 005. There is a definite improvement in the sound. Staging, depth of sound, the highs and lows are all opening up and natura... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm @sns -This morning's sound update-The sound is improving. It is more organic. Played with the DAC this morning. The Singxer SU-1 is redundant. I am happy I have simplified cabling. When I sell the Spring 1 KTE I will include it as part ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC My 005 arrived Wednesday. After a 48 hour break-in, I’m impressed, even though the sound is "brittle." I can echo many of the things I’m reading from 005 owners. Staging, placement of instruments, micro detail. While listening to Thelonious Monk’s... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Received notification that my 005 is shipping and will be delivered around 12/1. Definitely excited. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm @yyzsantabarbara Thanks for sharing your shipping experiences. I emailed Shenzhenaudio asking about shipping and delivery. They said they would have my DAC in 3-5 days and ship via DHL Express. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @milpai -Thanks! Definitely looking forward, and happy to share my impressions. And yes, I saw the comparison to the Holo May Level 2. I have a Holo Spring 1KTE and I am looking forward hearing the similarities and differences. I read and re-read... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm -"Anyway, someone who remembers Lafayette Radio probably has the time to rip his CD collection--as I did. 😀" LOL! I have an Aurender server with days worth of music on it. Think that will do it. Thanks again! | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @dbb -Thanks for the advice. My Cambridge transport has either coax or optical. Which one is better for the 005? And my Aurender music server has USB. I'm using an Audio Quest USB. Curious which USB audio cable you are using? | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm - Thanks! It’s always exciting trying something new in my system. As you noted, I go back and forth between the positive attributes of Delta Sigma and R2R DACS. This will be fun. One question-You wrote, "...be sure to run it hard for the 30 ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @melm -Thanks for your comments and insight. I agree not everyone develops sensitivities to higher frequencies as they age. In my case, I have. Too many years of screaming kids in school environments with terrible acoustics. With that said, I put... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sns -Thanks for the overview response. Very detailed, giving me a lot to consider. I've rotated Mytek 192, Ayre and Wyred 4 Sound through my system, and think you hit the nail on the head about the revealing nature with regard to poorer recordin... | |
| Review: Holo May (L2) DAC and the Musetec Audio (LKS Audio) MH-DA005 DAC Compaired Can anyone weigh about the presence or absence of higher frequency digital glare in the 005, in a tube-based system? I am following this thread, and others about this DAC. I’m considering an upgrade from a Holo Spring 1 KTE Dac. It’s paired with ... | |
