| CD player feeding 2 preamps simultaneously I do this with 2 DACs, the Benchmark DAC3B (company said this is fine), and the Musetec 005 DAC. I tried to do this with the AudioMirror Tubador DAC and it did not work and the designer also said not to do that. In your situation it would be det... | |
| Schiit Aegir pre-amp recommendation I was using a Topping pre90 with Benchmark AHB2 mono amps and LS50's (totally neutral). It was great. I just sold the Topping yesterday, which cost $600 new. I also used a Benchmark LA4 pre with the AHB2 and LS50. It sounded the same as the pre90.... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I should add that I will be using the CODA 07x preamp and Benchmark LA4 preamp with the 005 in my office. I was doing this with the first 005 before I moved it to the bedroom with the Freya+. The 005 can output both RCA and XLR at the same time (l... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @fl_guy I only have a few hours on the Freya+ with the stock tubes. I have not had a tube preamp before, so this is a little new to me. As I posted above, the Freya+ allowed me to use the RAAL SR1a with the Benchmark AHB2 and it sounds different ... | |
| Freya+ Owners - Help Needed I needed a preamp for my bedroom system that was going to be used with the RAAL SR1a headphones. I have 3 preamps in the house. - Topping pre90 (sold it a few minutes ago) - Benchmark LA4 - CODA 07x The CODA was the only one that could tame th... | |

| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Musetec saves the day. A post I made on the bedroom SR1a headphone system (or 2 channel for my ears). Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A | Page 316 | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org Yesterday, I called Shenzehn (sp?) about getting the... | |

| Amplfiers that Sound like Pass 30.8 that are not so heavy The CODA #8 is an excellent amp. Only reason I would sell it is to get the CODA #16 which is a bit better. The CODA drives my Thiel CS3.7 great. It can go down to 2 Ohms, though I forgot the numbers. I actually move my CODA #8 around rather frequ... | |
| Pontus vs Gustard? @pinwa Thanks for the Pontus II and Gustard X26 comparison. You answered exactly what I wanted to know. I sold my Gustard X26 Pro but may get it back and sell my Benchmark DAC3B because I will be going into a very hot speaker. I am going to put a ... | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC A warm low-ish cost DAC is the Gustard X26 Pro. I owned it for a while and loved it. I also owned the AudioMirror (top model). It was pretty good but I preferred the Gustard for my warm DAC types. I currently own the Benchmark DAC3B. It just doe... | |

| Changes in DAC Presentation - Need Advice I was also only using my MacMini for CORE. My issue was not sound quality. It was that ROON would have performance issues on the Mac. It would crash, stop playing, the MacMini would update the OS and then not reboot. I had to restore this machine ... | |
| Changes in DAC Presentation - Need Advice My MacMini (and all MACs I have had) are awful. I had to buy a cheapo DELL to move my ROON CORE off the Mini. Just too many problems. I do not know how people put up with all the issues I see on Macs. Recently ROON had some hiccups for me. I did... |
