Ive read through the entire thread now and dont remember reading about a fix for the high freq roll-off on upsampled/higher rez files. Has anyone heard anything new about a firmware upfrade?
Asus have top notch service
Cross off ordering the A10K
Got a quote back.. Copped a mild heart attack in the process.
My shipment from NewEgg arrived today. NewEgg described it as an "open box" Muses Edition although it arrived in a plain white box with Europe power cables only - which makes me think it is more likely a "factory refurbished" unit.
It is in cosmetically excellent condition with no marks or scratches that I can find anywhere. I removed the cover and confirmed that there are no gain jumpers and it has "B10K" volume pots.
I'm liking the performance of the Muses Ed as I spend more time with it. I'm beginning to sense a slightly tighter, punchier sound compared to my receiver and also a slightly sharper image.
So, to help me decide which path to take, I'm wondering how many others notice the "loose play"on the volume knobs like mine has? It doesn't feel like the pot itself is moving - rather the knob is a bit loose on the shaft. The volume knob play alone is enough for me to return this back to NewEgg.
Sorry, I meant millimeters, not centimeters... That would be bad!!! (above post corrected).
Can anyone else comment on theirs?
