Anyone compare these to the new Master 5 or 6? Lots of scattered reviews. I'm thinking about picking up a Phoenix myself....
post #3333 of 33383/24/13 at 2:04amMy system is experiencing some harsh crackling while listening. I'm unsure if it's the amp of the reference 5 dac. I've tried different headphones, different channels, coaxial and balanced cables, usb, toslink, and coaxial. What could be the problem? This has never happened before, and doesn't go away after it's been warmed up.

I still use one of the first Phoenix's released almost daily. I haven't ever had that issue. The only way I see to figure this out would be to swap components and cables until the problem can be isolated. Kingwa is also pretty responsive to issues IME. Good luck
post #3335 of 33383/25/13 at 4:17pmThanks.
post #3336 of 33384/12/13 at 5:28amGuys, I'm ordering a balanced cable for my LCD-2's to go together with my Phoenix. I was wondering if there is any difference at all between the 4-pin and double 3-pin xlr inputs on the front of the unit, if there isn't I'm definitely be getting a 4-pin as I think It's more practical. If there is then I'll be getting the dual 3-pins.
post #3337 of 33384/12/13 at 6:18amNo difference. Go for 4-pin; as you already noticed - it is more practical/elegant.post #3338 of 33384/12/13 at 8:12amQuote:Thanks mate, appreciate it alot.
