New Schiit! Ragnarok and Yggdrasil
A quick note on the Audiophilleo USB transport in comparison to the USB gen 3 on Yggy: The Yggy's USB interface is better. I did a direct A/B comparison between the two, and the Yggy USB interface was clearly a step up. I had the (now sold) Audiophilleo 2 w/ PurePower in my system for over 2...- Monago

Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)
Hey guys. I had a quick question regarding purrin's comments about the gungnir I was hoping someone could answer. He mentions the soundstage is "compact but well defined" in his comments on the generation 2 usb iteration; I was simply wondering if this is referring to the intimacy/immediacy...- Monago

Quick question. When selecting "STD" mode, I'm getting sound from both outputs - single ended and balanced. Is this normal behavior for the Taurus?- Monago

4 Pin XLR To 1/4 Stereo Pinout
Hey guys, I'm having a balanced to unbalanced adaptor made for my headphones, and the manufacturer asked me to provide the pinout. I was hoping someone here might be able to give me a hand. The cable is a 4 pin XLR to 1/4 stereo adaptor (As stated in the title). Any assistance would be...- Monago

It seems as if my issue went away after further use of the XLR output. After plugging in my HD650's and playing music for 24 hours continuously, I came back to find the amplifier functioning perfectly; no noticeable channel imbalance to speak of. I'm not sure what sort of component burn-in could...- Monago

So I've had the Taurus MKII for a few weeks now, and am absolutely blown away by it's performance. However, I'm having an issue, and was wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar who could chime in on a possible fix. Using the XLR output, if I play anything that's lower in...- Monago

AKG K812 Pro
I'm thinking of buying these to pair with my Burson Conductor, but I'm a little worried about this comment regarding the soloist SL and K812 pairing. The conductor is essentially a regular soloist, so these observations may not apply, but worrying none-the-less. Has anyone tried the K812...- Monago

Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D
Quote: The driver download section for Conductor usb drivers on the Burson website appears to be temporarily down; I'm assuming for the promised, soon-to-be-released update, but I suppose we'll see rather soon. Fingers crossed!- Monago

Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D
Quote: I do indeed still have blue screens with the provided Burson asio drivers while using foobar or JRiver Media Center - just less frequently than using WASAPI output in Jriver MC, or Directlink with JPlay. They seem to happen every few hours instead of every few moments using the...- Monago

Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D
Quote: I'm using Windows 7 64 bit, and don't have any sort of power conditioner. To be slightly more specific/descriptive regarding my issues with blue screens, they only occur when playing music using JPlay with the buffer set to "directlink", or WASAPI in Jriver MC. I'm aware that...- Monago
