The L700 with the 252s was not that great. There was an immediate increase in overall sound quality when plugged into the 323s. It sounded like a veil was lifted from the music, and it was also nice to have more voltage on tap when needed. Let me know if you have questions as I compared the...

 I purchased a used one that came with it. It was the version before Oct 12 2016, that does not have the jumpers for oversampling.   I am pretty confused about the whole I2S process if someone could explain. If i2s is used, than the Dac's clock is bypassed?    There is a hdmi i2s module that...

That makes me quite excited! What settings on the jumpers did you use?

Just purchased a DAC-19 10th anniversary with amanero upgrade. I am planning to use optical, but I have read about how it may be more prone to jitter than USB? Hopefully not. I am planning to switch all the jumpers towards the neutral sound and turn off dithering. Is there anyone who can advise...

Since the Stax 252s driver is a balanced unit, do you think that the Dac-19 being single ended would be a disadvantage versus the Nfb-28? 

Quick question someone help:   Audio-gd NFB 28.38 vs Reference 10.32?\   Will be listening on Stax 3100 system

The 9028 and 9038 were released together last year. The 9028 was meant to easily replace the 9018 in various applications while offering improvements, while the 9038 is hailed as the new king (per say) but requires different implementation.

I am in search for a dac or even dac/amp combo around and under the 600 dollar range to supply clean source to the Stax L700. I was considering pairing it with either the 323S or 353x drivers. One of the deciding factors is if I should take advantage of the balanced inputs on the 353x. Hopefully...

I know it is just over the 500 dollar price point, but it may be possible to consider the Aune S6 as an amp/dac combo. It accepts optical as well, and has a number of different outputs including 3 and 4 pin balanced xlr

Will be very interested with that review audiobean
