So tubes are a no no? I was told they add a holographic sound but if that's not correct, I am willing to go try to learn. Maybe it was a waste, isn't that what this community is for, to learn.
I agree with you that speakers are most important. I don't think my wife will let me buy any other speakers. I've only seen a couple speaker reviews on here. When you say sound EQ, what do you mean? Like audessey and anthem arc? Or like sound treatments around the rooms? How would I add...
You are probably right. Maybe I should have tried a couple more affordable DACs. Are there any other DACs that are not Sabre or AKM that you recommend? I'm always willing to learn and try
Kind Regards,
Joe
Good Morning Gentlemen,
I am a novice to the audio world and I wanted to share my experience with a really interesting piece of kit. Full disclosure, I am a cheap ass want the absolute most for my money.
I have experience with Ess sabre and AKM chips and, while they sound great, I am...
My USB cable was only 3 feet long. I tried a 6 foot and 1.5 foot and still clicking. I suspect some type of miscommunication or clocking issue between pcs and the USB input of this DAC. It sounds divine now. Thank God
Good evening Gentlemen,
I received another DAC from the manufacturer and that one also had the clicking through USB. I purchased a $50 converter on Amazon that takes usb to I2S and now THE CLICKING IS GONE!! I2S has solved my dilemma and pretty cheap as well.
I don't know what the USB...
I have a 3 foot USB. I have tried multiple from 3-6 feet. Still clicks. DAC direct to parasound gives clicks but the soundstage is bigger (yes!). I have lowered the volume on the software and still click. I will try to find a wasapi audio driver. Any recommendations?
Kind Regards
Joe
