    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    Thank you! I thought so regarding the Analog... I plan to connect the DAC to my AMP (McIntosh MC275) directly which I do now. Balanced or not is not a major factor for me. I enjoy both at the moment from the Vega while both the amp and DAC are balanced but sound great on RCA or XLR. The...

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    Romaz, thanks for such a thorough reply! Much appreciated! And have you heard the MSB Analogue? Is it on the same 'happy-sounding DAC' path as the Vega? Since basically I choose between the Dave / Analogue / or M1 from Bricasti. What I don't like initially from the latter is that it's a bit...

    AURALiC ARIES

    Looks like it was one really annoying streamer! Mine was with 1.7 maybe 1.5 FW. BTW, does it means that it have no AC-standard WiFi card inside?

    AURALiC ARIES

    So hey everyone. Today I've turned on my Aries for the very first time and I'm completely disappointed in terms of user experience. Soundwise it's flawless though.   It all started with a disappointment from an error on the screen "Network error, please use LAN cable". I haven't planned to do...

    Thank you, I'm curious is there any comparison in terms of soul and musicality between MHDTs and VALABs? Since I want to get the most.
