[quote user="miab"]Romy, You have mentioned somewhere in the Bidat-Lavry thread about the Bidat being a 20 bit dac but throws out 4 bits (quote below). But, you have also stated that you play 20/44.1 files from your pc set-up into the Bidat and ...

Hi Romy,Bidat IS quite a bit better than any dac i've used in that upper range (or any where else), but there is a bit of hardness there that I have problems killing off in my system. Its not possibly enough to motivate me to do actively do som...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I have heard 2 positive comments from a people who used the Berkeley Alfa DAC. One of them is in sales and obviously off any credentials. Another person is just a user who used reportedly the DAC at CES (prototype version),...

if there is only one output on the source, it should feed the main speaker preamp or Dac. The preamp or dac digital or analog output would the feed the pre-pro or receiver with auro 3d capability which would then feed the ambiance channels.If the sou...

Well, this is a big subject.
Kind of. For sure a better DAC produce better sound. How much a better DAC shall
cost? That is a complicated topic that has absolutely no relation to how the
DAC sound. I remember a dealer that I know pick up a new spe...

I thought I would look at the Memory Player specs and was surprised to be greeted by what is in my books an obscene price list. But it may be quite cheap for others. These things are all relative of course.Best regardsRakeshThe Memory Player 64 T...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Still, I feel that methodologically it is not right
way to build a playback. [/quote]No disagreement from me on this point. This is all just a thought bubble for now. Even if I wanted to press go on this project based ...

Gordon Rankin, it is the guy who promotes the silver-wired transformers? Oh, yes I need to put him my news section….
On the serious note I do not know if your IT people are correct as it might be too deal question to them and average corporate IT pe...

No question the Behringer has a ton of functionality, especially at under $300. The simple RTA is useful on the fly. I think and hope this tool will help with the MiniMe development.
I always wondered why the DEQ sounded so veiled but suspected ...

As a new concert season is coming up with BSO opening night next week I was sprucing up my recording studio. The machine is 3MHz with 2G memory – plenty run SoundLab5. The SoundLab just record and play, I do absolutely nothing else in this software, ...

OK Romy, I get it. You may believe that the act of the DVD-A creation software will alter the music bits as seen by the transport/DAC. I believe the software is only encapsulating the data into the DVD-A binary image. My current PC music streamer, a ...

... am intrigued with DSD DACs. And for three main reasons:1) If you look at the attached jpeg (taken from http://www.korg.com/services/products/mr/Future_Proof_Recording_Explaine...), DSD recording appears to have a simpler path than most modern PCM...

I have a Fosell transport for some years now I upgraded from a CEC TL-1 which was miles behind...I use an EAD 7000 III DAC which I kept after having both the 9000 and the 7000, the mian difference between them is the preamp section of the 9000, so ...

It is astonishing: what “scooter” wrote in his “Ultra box” post above is what I would write myself.
Anyhow, Charlus when you wrote about “single DAC possessing virtues entirely harmonious with all three sources” then I very much understand wh...

At the risk of sounding like a yahoo, can i ask you romy if you have used your PC for internet radio playback. , as opposed to cd or other forms of digital playback ? My cd collection played out of iTunes to my DAC sounds lifeless, pointless. Howev...

The Lavry DA-924 and Sansui TU-X1 are on separate equipment legs/chains and only come together at inputs to the amplifier. They also are on separate uninterruptible power supplies that are on separate legs of our wall supplies. Also,...

I am no expert on digital although I certainly read a lot on DSD and DVD-A back in the day. However, once you use the standard D/A chip as lampizator acknowledges, you are at the point of a tweaker for the rest. It is like a speaker manufacturer who ...

[quote user="David"]I think for a start there are so many different ways of getting a sound that is acceptable to the listener it pays not to be too dogmatic.I am in the early days of developing my system with speakers from 4 different manufacturers ...

Cyrille, thanks for the comments. The KOtriode’s 6C33C preamp is certainly a unique thing and not a lot of people have reference how it might sound. Not it is too complex but rather not a lot of people have balls to make preamp out 6C33C. In fact yea...

I was under impression that it was obvious what the new “investigational” DAC was. It was the Pacific. http://www.euphonix.com/post/products/converters/model_two.htmThe link to the entire thread about the Pacific was linked to the current thread. In ...

[quote user="Paul S"]Interesting that problems Harley isolated in this case (pits and lands; turntable) were physical/mechanical, utimately "analog", in that sense. I'm glad someone has stayed after it, but not sure how to put this revelation to work...

Jim, do I know you?
I ask because I know one Jim near Boston who has Lavry DAC and who has the new Thorsten's Abbingdon Music Research. The Thorsten's DAC should be Multibit as. It might be very interesting and I assure you very educational for you ...

Thanks Romy, very interesting thread.I've never tried the analogue inputs for the DEQ2496. If I want analogue in (which is rarely) I use a mytek a/d which sounds quite nice (but oneday when I get the time I'm going to modify it with i/p transformers ...

Yes , romy I understand completely about how you feel with dc i feel the same way when thinking on all my system , to put dc on an amp , directly can be great but not practical , will requiere lot of space , a big battery bank etc etc , so not practi...

Thank you, Rennie, but that's entirely beyond me. As for Romy's input, I do take your point; it's hard to imagine a single DAC possessing virtues entirely harmonious with all three sources - maybe I should just go for the best universal player attain...

The new reference Lavry that eventually does 4X is a very cool idea. The volume control is a bit damn thing to have in there, particularly for pro unit but it is what it is, thank God it is analog volume control anyhow. The mono switch is also a coo...
