When I saw the poor pink panther I knew something was up. It's a sad story, I feel sorry for those that paid so much for it. Even if they do think it was worth it.
Curious if you used HQplayer's filters and dither feeding the dac 705/768khz x16 rates if you would eliminate all the issues? I bet you would get better performance?
I don't have HQ Player but could try upsampling in Roon....Curious if you used HQplayer's filters and dither feeding the dac 705/768khz x16 rates if you would eliminate all the issues? I bet you would get better performance? But would that be worth 13k I think not? You could get phasure NOS dac which is well than less than half the price of totaldac and get his xxhighend software and custom pc. I have not heard this either but along the same in comparison I would imagine?

The Multitone is at 192 kHz sampling.I think if you just run some AP tests at higher sampling rates we'll know enough.

x4 is not going to cut it then...you would need to get to x8 rates to get some better specs.
Not the same upsampling as HQP and it depends if you send PCM or dsd, and dither and filters and source content playedI don't have HQ Player but could try upsampling in Roon....

Single end direct heated triodes baby! LOL!They have a cult following in some quarters, like a lot of "eccentric" kit.
It is really sad how many people are fooled in the audio world. I have been to this years biggest audio show in Munich, the "High-End". Atleast 50% of the shown stuff were special cables and other questionable stuff. The people there actually loved it
