Well, I have to admit that the stupendous sensitivity that Sansui TU-1X have after the Stereo Surgeons tune up to use the TU-1X is kind of complicated. With 0.8mkV this tuner picks the noise that my DACs radiate. I staffed all wholes of the Sansui’s ...

[quote user="manisandher"] Well I can pretty much replicate the sound I was getting last year - simply have the DAC and power amps plugged into the PP and the PC plugged into the wall socket. The sound becomes brighter, thinner and more edgy. This i...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]From what you describe I conclude that you have ground loops regardless of the PPs and the PP juts highlights the problem.[/quote]This may well be the case. I can't even remember the exact components I was using last year (...

Phil Gold wrote in his EMM review the following:

The key consideration for any external DAC is how to minimize or eliminate jitter. We've seen analog Phase Locked Loops (PLLs), dig...

This is very interesting, Anthony. I do think that absolute polarity has own role to play. Also, do check the DC that might be sent out of your preamps, certainly with Placette and with your 10Y before the transformer. Chas it with disconnected Milq ...

Both ABB 20KVA UPS and Pure Power 3000 are IGBT transformerless UPS and the AC output of them is not perfect Sinusoidal .like Pure Power the ABB is also sensitive to AC quality.ABB 20KVA UPS does not isolate Neutral line but the Pure power 3000 isola...

An FM broadcast of church bells from the major cathedrals around Sweden welcomed 2014. Blessed with holidays in my family's home in Dalarna, the miracle of a truly great room was granted. Built with logs in 1947, spruce floor, ceiling, and since th...

I am sure that recording might be implemented by different means - as long as you feel that you do not lose the quality that FM offers then any means are good.[/quote]Today I set-up FM tuner -> ADC -> DACs -> am...

Dear Romy,
I am continuing with testing.
Conclusions at high amplifier volume: -
1) FM tuner variable OUTPUT-2 supplies less background noise than FM tuner variable OUTPUT-1.2) Inserting hard disk recorder into the chain is blameless.3) I hav...

we replaced the AMR DP-777 DAC with New CEC DA 3.0 DAC (30k$) to test between three digital cables because we could not believe digital cables could have huge difference .The connection between CEC TL 1 and CEC DA 3.0 could be 4 Link (clock data ... ...

[quote user="xandcg"]Amir,If you are looking for a transparent DAC and it could have a built-in preamp, you may want to take a look on:Merging + NadacNadac Player, same but a built-in music server (or something).I did not listened to them, but at lea...

I admit I have too much fun lately with DACs. Whatever it is, my beloved 16bit DAC is back from the John Wright’s face lift. It is a third time when John does this specific Bidat. Interestingly that even John admits that for whatever reasons this uni...

Romy, thanks for the explanation.
I was not sure if you still kept an eye on that thread Romy. As far as I know you need to be logged in to view the images in the diy threads so I will post a couple here to show where...

I sound as moronic as it could be but I found myself straggling with new thing. I am experimenting now with a new AD/DA processor in my system and to my big surprise my addiction to the Synopsis digital cables is nailing me down.

Many companies recently began to offer options for raw VAW-players – that God. I hope the CD/DVD.SACD all will die and go to hell. Playing the row files is the way to do. Even the raw 16/44 VAW is so far beyond then any crap put in disk that it is no...

It would be nice if somewhere exist a community of Pacific users with some kind of knowledge base about different ways to used this processor, but I think this time has gone as the HDCD time has gone… In the world of 16.44 only the HDCD was good....

I can't see what advantage one of these "music servers" might potentially offer over a small portable computer sitting on the hifi rack next to a couple large external hard drives and a good outboard DAC.

My journey with computer audio offers me reason to be optimistic. I think it is like everything else in the audio chain. Everything counts. Keep it as simple as possible. The power for every consumer is important. Keep the number of parts and transfo...
