Holo Audio May DAC Speculation
In that case it's likely a network issue. How is your network set up? Due to some of the underlying protocols roon relies on if you have an unorthodox setup or are running via a vpn such as tailscale it may not see or be able to access devices even if the roon remote client itself is able to...- GoldenSound

Is your pc seeing the DAC at all? Probably best first to determine if this is a roon issue or a hardware/setup issue- GoldenSound

Make sure usb input is selected on the may. If it's set to i2s or coax or something the USB input is disabled entirely and the connected pc won't see it- GoldenSound

The upgrade will give you the spatial enhancement, impact+, tube mode, and the changes made to the DAC operation itself. Though you won't get the voltage divider option as that is a new hardware aspect.- GoldenSound

Yep! The spatial enhancement has separate speaker and headphone modes (I use speakers a lot myself, increasingly so these days) And the tube mode and impact+ mode are effectively 'playback method agnostic' and work great through both mediums- GoldenSound

That's the intent yep! It doesn't alter FR at all, but adds some extra even order harmonics which make things a little warmer/weightier sounding overall. It's intentionally subtle so that it's not a party trick you use for 3 songs then turn off forever, but for either tracks or headphones that...- GoldenSound

Really glad you're enjoying it! If you've not done so yet, I'd strongly recommend trying the track "Closer" by Lemaitre. During the main chorus/busy part, try switching spatial enhancement on, then off again after a few seconds and hear the difference. That particular track has been one of...- GoldenSound

Oh, seems maybe they don't include the adapters with the elite. That's a bit of a shame, they do include them with the normal iPower and iPower X- GoldenSound

The iFi iPower PSUs should come with more adapters, there's usually 5 in the box including the negative pin one. If those weren't in yours sounds like you may have received a "Refurbished" unit rather than a new one- GoldenSound

Nothing to do with headphones.com. The only agreement there is the sales exclusivity in NA. There's nothing else. And it's in Ferrum's interest to have the conversion program ready as soon as they can so rest assured it'll be out as soon as possible- GoldenSound

Main extra thing to note is that this feature is being done with 64 bit precision rather than 24/32 bit as many normal digital EQs are (some even only do 16 bit). This is to ensure absolutely no change in sound quality other than the actual FR effect itself. Ie: it's the highest possible quality...- GoldenSound

Generally if using Wandla with a tube amp, I'd set voltage output to 'red' mode and then vol control to about 90. But try tweaking the level to see what sounds best with your amp. With other DACs either use the inbuilt vol control or vol control in your player to apply about 6-10dB vol attenuation- GoldenSound

It's not that the envy can't take more than that, it's just that it (and so far all other tube amps or hybrid amps with tube input stages) that I've tested exhibit distortion correlated with input level, regardless of what level is actually being output. This means that they will change in...- GoldenSound

One thing to note is with envy (and many other tube amps) you'd definitely need to use vol control/voltage adjustment. 10V into a tube amp will cause them to distort significantly more. With the WA23 and Envy AE the sweet spot was about 1V- GoldenSound
