    RME ADI-2 FS Version 2 DAC and Headphone Amp Review

    That file installs a panel in the taskbar and the asio driver. In roon or qobuz (the 2 I am using atm) you can then select adi dac 2 fs ASIO mode. With that the frequency changes automatically. In wasapi mode (exclusive or not) the music player cannot override the setting in the madinterface...

    RME ADI-2 FS Version 2 DAC and Headphone Amp Review

    I suppose you use it via USB, if so you can change the resolution in the Madiface interface for wasapi. After that you can only use the set frequency till you change again in the panel. If you want the 44k 48k 96k 192k dynamically changed by the music software you use (ex roon or qobuz) you need...

    RME ADI-2 FS Version 2 DAC and Headphone Amp Review

    just to be sure every sound works as intended I have built a few dac/amp chains. The default filter of adi dac is sd sharp... comparing to the couple a90 (non mqa... I use qobuz and flacs)+a90... the chinese couple wins... but using the SD LD filter on the deutch dac against the mode6 of the d90...

    Review and Measurements of Sabaj D5 DAC & Amp

    Not really an answer as I have not both but after reading reviews here and everywhere I was tempted by them. I choosed the d5 (amazon) and tested side by side with my hugo2. I sold the hugo2 and now I am very happy with d5. A couple of weeks later I added a thx887 and now background seems also...

    bought from monoprice about 1 month ago, 399 usd + 124 usd of dhl shipping to italy. I thought to have to pay also custom duty, but dhl did not asked me anything. Probably custom duty was included in the shipping handling.... no idea.. so 470 euros final cost for me .

    Review and Measurements of Sabaj D5 DAC & Amp

    It seems to me the 887 has a slight more defined sound , I mean the hits are more precise so the sound begins and stops asap. The sabaj is great, maybe the difference is only in my mind. For sure the r70x on single ended suffers a bit on SE sabaj output that is not so powerful to drive the...

    Monoprice Monolith THX 887 Balance Headphone Amp: New Champ?

    Aye, it was just a test to find how black was the background at maximum power, absolute 0. Sometimes I prefer gain 2 with volume under 9 o clock, sometime gain 1 with volume under 10-11. Measured decibel with a audio meter inside the cup of an headphone , abount never I pass 80db. I find gain 2...

    Monoprice Monolith THX 887 Balance Headphone Amp: New Champ?

    I came from hugo2 that I sold for a sabaj D5 after having both for a week. To be sure to not missing anything I bought a monolith 887 , I live in Italy, really a bloodbath. I connected the dac to the amp with 2 mogami-neutrik xlr cables. I think that the bass sounds are a bit more controlled...

    Review and Measurements of Sabaj D5 DAC & Amp

    Hello Veri , I matched sound with sound meter on smartphone with external mic so volume was about perfectly equal between hugo2 and d5. At least on main speakers. Tried on different days, tried on different tracks, hugo 2 (with white filter) is a bit more relaxed on the highest frequencies. But...
