Here's a computer playback approach that I though people might be interested in. In many ways, it's pretty much the leading edge of computer playback as far as I know.The idea here is to isolate the DAC as much as possible from the PC. All the audio ...

[quote user="Amir"]do you use microrendu?[/quote]Hi Amir, yes I use a microRendu in my office system - it replaced the NAA I spoke about in the old post that you quoted. I think I'm one of the very few owners who hasn't been drawn in by the hyperbole...

[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...

... to pass data unchanged.I've been ripping my CDs (using EAC and a Plextor CD-ROM drive) for about 4 years now. I use Foobar with ASIO (and now with WASAPI also) as the software player, loaded onto a Sony laptop. The soundcard is an RME FF800.Now t...

[quote user="ulf"] If you have no experience of HornResp I suggest that you download a copy and try it out. It is a very neat software that is useful when designing horn speakers. You can easily make simulations and get a decent result concerning fre...

Romy,
I've been storing all my digital music on a computer located fairly far
from the audio system for quite some time now. You've brought up a few
issues that are worth discussing.
1) Storing the digital stream - I assume you mean either (...

I downloaded your file and burned a DVD-A which includes 176/24 Reference Recordings HrX demo files they once made available.
I listened to these on my OPPO SE which has an info display that verifies the recording sample rate, and also...

Not the same thing at all, but the New Amarra software allows for auto sampling rate switching on itunes, I heard a dem last week in Munich , itunes and then switching in Amarra and the Amarra sounded way more interesting, Jonathan from Sonic studio...

Romy: BTW, I juts converted the Verdi from 24.88 to 16/44 and lost a huge amount of “sound”…Hmm... I've heard good conversions, and I've heard bad. I expect the digital gear/software has not been properly assessed for sonic quality.clark...

Very helpful primer. This might be a good place to elaborate a bit on approaching the task of crossover selection and testing for each driver, especially with respect to points, filter selection, steepness and other parameters one should consider. Fr...

I only heard such a quadrophonic system with a special recording, no idea what the conversion software can do for stereo basis broadening of conventional stereo recordings, but might be worth a try (with the Tannoys as rears).http://www.andreavonsali...

Amir,You can try to connect Toslink cable to your MacBook headphone jack, if your model supports this. In my case, it made a huge difference vs the USB interface. And then you can compare it to Toslink output from your CEC. Unfortunately, different s...

I have been able to produce video files longer than 4Gb 7,5 Gb if I don't recall wrongly. Wav files shouldn't be any different. Are you using the All sound recorder XP? Maybe using other software it can be overcome or just changing some setting in it...

Sonic Studios 'soundblade ' is the most transparent software I have 'heard' Wavelab is also very good and much cheaper. If you use Macs you might try Sonic's 'Amarra'it is the first of a plethora of similarly based players, improves on standard itune...

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...

Romy Your file was burned in wave format you provided as-is. It was never processed by the Korg. I conducted my test to evaluate the sound of 176/24 files on my system. These files came from you, Reference Recording and my Korg and all can coexist un...

So I just need to click "open files" I add all the ones into a given work and the program plays them in a row. Probably sound quality is not near of what you get from your software, but considering how handicapped is the system I use, I really don't ...

Sorry wrong attachment but as your software does not allow for editting, I can't be bothered to link to the correct one. Suffice to say - plenty of second harmonic and nasty break up modes. ...

Allo Romy,Do you not think it is time to discuss your "evaluation criteria"? Have we not approached the entire subject backwards for too long? I have to say, on the mechanical side at least (and, particularly, on every piece of s...
