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...

I am not well familiar with what Berkeley. Their voyage to the beginnings unit that the company started was irrelevant to me and then thinner USB version did not attract my attention. It is not that I feel that they were bad units. I never had th...

Such measurements give us ample information regarding the technical parameters of these machines, and if one is seeking to determine preeminence thus, then what you propose is not without merit. However, near-perfection in terms of measurable paramet...

Dear de charlus,I think AMR CD77 is a valid candidate for you. I haven't heard this CD player but I own AMR PH77 phono which is special. Romy knows it's designer very well you can ask his idea also.Regards,Armen...

Mani, interest in using Pacific as the only all-time on DAC revised my interest in pacific D/A converter section. I consider it as a great 16bit DAC and very good 24Bit DAC. The reason I did not elevate in my appraisal Pacific DAC to great status...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I find it very covenant to run analog source and then be able to switch the source signal passing across Pacific A/D-D/A where both D/A and DAW run from the same Pacific’s A/D clock. In fact it is so convenient that I asked...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]From what you describe I can conclude that your DAC is not good. You said you use DIY wireless DAC with tube output. I do not know what wireless mean in this context, but it is not important. I also know do not like any tub...

As you know currently there are two opposite camps regarding digital sound reproduction: one is the non oversampling filterless camp, the other is the over- and upsampling + filter camp. There are as many followers of the NO as the over- and upsampli...

Does anyone have building and/or listening experience in "transformered" IU output DAC's (with/without tube behind it)?...

[quote user="de charlus"]You know, the more I look at the parts and construction of these things, the more impressed I am, for the price. I do like the look of that rubidium master clock too, again at an impressive price.[/quote] Yes, the Antelope lo...

Well, leaving aside my "grinding axes", namely my habitual love to remind people and myself that there are plenty Morons in audio I do think that Berkeley's parley to Reference DAC is interesting. It is interesting not by the DAC as a unit but rather...

New review by the computer audiophile at http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/599-berkeley-audio-design-alpha-dac-reference-series-review/The review is what it is. There is a lot of history behind the company and it appears to be a site sponsor....

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]First I was wondering why the Berkeley Boys who were in there did not run their new converter but used the 10 years old Pacific DAC?[/quote]It's interesting that no one on AA seems to have picked up on this fact!If I were f...

Thanks Joaco feedback is important all one can do is to research and find the best unit for ones budget. It is very difficult to do comparisons so this is where sites such as this are useful. Im going to try and find a dealer who can let me try the W...

Jessie, I have two comments/questions.
Are you sure that using the USB you do not use the sound card? I am a software guy not a hardware guy and with my limited understanding I presume that an application that reads a file must talk to so kind of dr...

Has anyone tried the Benchmark DAC Pre?
These guys seem to have an interesting approach to dealing with jitter by effectively (or not so effectively?) ignoring input data clocks. Their methodology seems to be cloaked but the basic premise is that...

[quote user="tuga"]Hello,
I have owned a TDA1543 based Kusonoki style (passive I/V, digital filterless, non oversampling) DAC for almost two years.
You can have a look at the measurements here.
I find that this kind of implementation (Kusonoki...

[quote user="xandcg"]I don't know if you was being
sarcastic on that quote but Lampizator does the DSD conversion in a R2R way,
using a power tube instead of a DAC chip.[/quote]I am not sarcastic and the "review" above does not

Hello,
A Singaporean company came out, apparently since a while, with some perhaps interesting discrete R-2R DACs. The top of the line is the Denafrips Terminator Plus which apparently cost <9000 USD.

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 ...

Keith,
it is not the thread about Lavry Gold DAC I would rather to hear from people who have experience with other Multibits, perhaps with many Multibits, and who would be able to generalize their observation about Multibits vs. anything else. I kn...

Peter, I got a feedback from Dan. You were right it looks like Dan do smudges to reboot the DAC occasionally despite that it does in run-time recalibration: "I would recommend turning the power off for a minute or more, at least every few month. That...
