Hi all,
Now, I have 3 short flac files side-by-side, and I don't need to switch the cables.
And.. I must confess that the differences among them that I perceive are quite reduced and small..
I am still confused since I did think they sounded different, and since I thought my ears are...
Thanks a lot, Blumlein and solderdude.
I reduced to ~15 sec in FLAC format.
I used the sound card in my desktop (RealTek) using 3.5mm-to-RCA cable by blue jean. Hope this answers your question.
Hi solderdude,
This was my first-in-life recording using computer, -.- but I tried to keep up with your requirement.
- Exactly same song, same setting except the three XLR cables. Regular level of volume (~11hour level).
- Luckily, I had a 3.5mm-2-RCA cable. I used Audacity at 96kHz, 24-bit...
- I did not have anyone to help me on the test, so it's up to you whether you believe or not. But, I can say the cables sound different.
- For any song, I listen one song for 30~45 seconds and shift the cables to listen to the same phrase. I do it multiple times for the same phrase.
I have Topping D90 MQA and Topping A90, together with Hifiman Ananda. So, I wanted to have a good enough (but not expensive) XLR cables to connect D90 and A90.
- First, I ordered one from Markertek. (Canare's premier L-4E6S Star-Quad cable)...
Hi Masthope,
The unit was perfectly working, and it is in the box now.
1) I have another person who replied earlier.
2) I fully understand your comments, but I am not open for further price reduction since the price is already quite lower than what you would see in ebay. Used D70 is priced...
