[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...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I might be not “getting” what you are doing but it looks to
me that it is not near close to “CEC TL0X vs Berkeley Alpha”. The Berkeley

I think DP-777 sounds best when i turn off it's Jitter correction and i use bit Perfect I mode in 16bit 44.1khz mode.I think AMR DP-777 is very very good DAC but in my idea it is a-little bold sounding if i criticize tone.It sounds clear , very clear...

Dima is keep bothering me with this idea. It is not that he keep bothers – he implanted this notion into my mind and it keep bother me with the feeling that he might be very much right.
He feel that Lavry 924 is the only know to him properly implem...

[quote user="Telstar"] Because those 20 bit were true 20 bits No, it won't do true 24 bit ladder, according to the specs on their website. Nonetheless it can be good. At least it is sure that it will accept 24/174.6 format. But I I'm pretty sure that...

Romy Quit being so diplomatic and tell us what you really think..... Incidentally, I tried the Meitner Ma-1 . It is a great dac in many ways but I think it still needs more software development as it sound quite different depending on what inp...

That was very interesting post, here are some thoughts of my about it.
[quote user="KOTriode"]Romy, No, the DAC was not set at maximum level (for best sound) while Cyrille listening to the system. It was set at normal volume for the whole sys...

Has anyone tried the MSB 'Platinum series' Dac's? I heard the most grain free digital I can recall coming from a MSB Platinum III Dac at the CES show. It was directly feeding MSB amps and on some prototype MSB speakers with 5" ceramic mid and di...

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 with a built-in music server (or something).I did not listened to them, but at least their Pro Aud...

I was asked a few days ago what I think about Zandèn new CD player and I replied that I do not think about it.

You eventually may find a Lampi 6 near you here: https://www.facebook.com/LampizatOr-BIG-7-tube-rollers-group-1527145964228079/?fref=tsAlternatively you may test that type of design on a AN DAC. There are so many levels, with so many prices, most lik...

Not whiling to try to force you into anything but LampzatOr also have true R2R, as option on some models and default on the top one (Golden Gate). Not to say you can do tube rolling and adapt the sound to your mood.You could make a call to Lukas and ...

[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...

Dima for instance (and he has quite high expertise in the subject) claims that there no true 24bit converters available anyhow. BTW, with all advances of HDCD, that I fully appreciate, it makes send only on 16 bit. At 20...

Don't you have one which you could use as a transport to asses your DPA dac and make up your mind for yourself? (it may happen that you'll like cheap DVD player better sounding by itself) 90% of cretins who own Bidat do it only because Romy prizes...

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...
