| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Since someone on a prior post said that the setting they used was SLOW-L and DPLL BW07 I used that today on my speakers, though I did not notice much but I was not paying too much attention. However, tonight I decided to test with the SRa and with... | |
| KEF Blade 2 Vivid and Yamaha also have backwave cancellation. Now KEF also has it with the META. I do not think KEF had it in the past, prior to the Meta, with Blades or any other models. With the Vivid speakers, this backwave cancellation allowed them to be ... | |
| Looking for a SS amp for Goldenear References I am putting a relatively new CODA #8 amp that kills on the hard to drive Thiel CS3.7 up for sale. It is 150 | 300 | 600 @ 8 | 4 | 2 with the first 18 watts in Class A. You could get it reconfigured at the factory for less Clas A power and much mo... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Is output to one pair of connections at a time, or is it capable of feeding both XLR and RCA out simultaneously? I can report that it does work with both outputs connected at the same time to 2 preamps, which are connected to 2 amps. | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC What is the logic behind the DLL settings? Are people setting it by listening or is there some guidance provided. I have been using the 01 setting with USB, but I just tried the 07 setting and the sound maybe a bit livelier. I need to do some more... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I am taking my Musetc 005 DAC this morning to a hardware vender/musician to listen to the 005 via my RAAL SR1a headphones. He is doing some repairs on a cable I own I want him to hear the 005 because he has a great ear and tends to know the musici... | |
| Thiel Just keep calling. He is a bit difficult to contact but really the only person these days to contact about Thiel. He helped me put together a very badly damaged CS3.7 back to fighting shape. However, contacting him was very difficult during Thanks... | |
| DAC - Modded Sony XDR-F1HD tuner as reference I just put my modded XDR back into my Livingroom system. In the past I found it was not as good as my 3 other tuners, but close. Then I tried an Audience Au24SE RCA interconnect and the differences closed to almost the same level as the other 3. T... | |
| Amp with RCA and XLR Inputs PLUS a switch to Select Today, I received the NAD M22 V2 from The Music Room in Colorado. I paid for a used unit, but it looks like they sent me a brand-new unit. No complaints there. My signal path with the NAD needs some breaking-in but everything works as I wanted, a... | |
| Emm Labs DV2 versus Tambaqui @ja_kub_sz How about starting a new thread to compare the Musetec 005 to the DACs you plan to audition? The 4 DACs you have listed were all in my list of DACs to consider, along with the 005. I am thinking of getting a second 005 for the Livingro... | |
| Rate my system/advise You do not need to spend the same amount on the gear as the speakers. Get some warm sounding gear for the B&W. My warmest sounding gear is the new KRELL XD line. Which likely would sound killer with the Audio Research and B&W. I own the m... | |
| Amp with RCA and XLR Inputs PLUS a switch to Select Thanks all for your suggestions. I just bought a NAD M22 V2 and will give it a whirl. I was about to get the AGD Tempo but the NAD M22 which I have heard before could be something different from the AHB2. Whereas the AGD may not (if the LSA Voyag... | |
| Amp with RCA and XLR Inputs PLUS a switch to Select From Alberto at AGD To answer your question, yes the TEMPO and the AUDION and the Vivace have independent XLR and RCA inputs. So you can connect 2 sources at the same time without any mutual influence. The XLR-RCA switch activate 2 relays (on... | |
| Amp with RCA and XLR Inputs PLUS a switch to Select For anyone confused by my search for a new amp. I recently discovered that the Schitt Freya+ preamp | Benchmark AHB2 amp | Musetec 005 | RAAL SR1a sound excellent. A little different from my prior setups but just as excellent as those but with a ... | |
| KEF Blade 2 @arvincastro Thanks for the additional info. After reading about the changes to the Blade I am led to believe that the Blade had the most work done with regards to the upgrades. The crossover, the new uni-q driver, and the META. The Blade v1 you... |
