Justin, I have looked through the thread here. Am I correct in assuming there are no loop out fixtures on the CF3? I don’t detect them from the internal pics, and not mentioned in the specs. Just wanting to be sure.

The fiber segment is best implemented close to the streamer. This prevents the noise from outside, and from your own home. Modem, router, switches,hubs, WiFi, and the many connected devices present in homes nowadays. Best would be a streamer with fiber input. I settled for a terminal Ethernet...

Pm sent with picture. ATH-ESW10

I will try and get a better picture. I lowered the resolution to get the picture to load, and it looks like it just cut off half of the picture I took.

Original Meze Liric Closed back headphones. (includes box, case, and original cables) Used in an office - no smoke, pets, nor children. Clearing out a lot of things over the next month, figured if I want the new wooden ones, I need to sell these first. 1000 USD - includes PP fees, and shipping

Or Esoteric, T&A, Mola Mola, Bricasti, and several others in the $10-20k (new) DAC space. I went with MSB. Now if choosing between those 2 on the used market, from my reading, the DCS will be smoother, and Chord more analytical. Small differences for sure. Bartok a traditional single box...

I ended up giving up on a small one box solution, and decided to keep my bigger headphone amps, and got a separate Pre-Amp and DAC instead. I will just have to make room for my system when we move.

I listened to the songs via Qobuz this afternoon. I thought the sound good, I felt the tempo was off on the song, just a bit too slow for my concept of the Beatles. I liked it well enough though {Qobuz - Holo Audio Spring KTE (OG) - Headroom Balanced Ultra - Senn HD 800 (OG) - my somewhat retro...

I use an adapter that converts the balanced XLR to balanced 4.4 female connector. But I agree that 4.4 is a new standard that will endure, in my opinion. I use the XLR for my cables for the most part., but I have the 4.4 balanced adapter, and a 3.5 single ended adapter, and can use just about...

Yes, it takes awhile. You will learn to listen to the clicks. 2 minutes...

I have asked Justin about the XLR loop outputs. He replied that the XLR loop outputs are directly connected to the inputs, and work even when the power is off. I am unsure about mixing balanced, and unbalanced outputs. I know that it can be an issue, in some amps, as the ‘cold’ leg of the XLR...

I also have had rapid replies from Justin. still looking for a copy of the bias adjustment video. Perhaps if he made a text/diagram version…

Still love my OG V281! Current headphone : Meze Elite.

I got the Renderer v2 with my DAC - I use Roon pretty exclusively for files and Qobuz playback. I am using TOSLink for Video sound playback. I have played with Coax input via a Wyred4Sound modded Sonos Port. I did not get either of the USB input implementations. My Roon system involves a fanless...

The MSB Premier DAC has endured about 100 hours so far. Far and away better than the Bricasti M12. (and the Lavry Black, ANK DAC 4.1, Bryston BDA3, and the Holo Audio Spring KTE (first one). Even the wife, a music lover, but non-audiophile, says its better than previous units. Clarity, Low End...

Quobuz - iFi Go Bar - MrSpeakers Ether (original)

after a certain point, one is seeking the correct “flavor” for their system. Other factors include price, form factor, and what I describe as fussiness. I have used a system it’s DAC, microRendu, and special power supplies for several items in the chain. A whole lot of stuff to manage, and fit...

I ordered MSB Premier. Have always liked the R2R DACs. I use a Holo Audio Spring I in one set up, and have loved an AudioNoteKits 4.1 DAC, which utilizes an R2R (in a DIP), with an exquisite tube/transformer based output section (Limited to 14/96, no DSD). Currently using Bricasti M12 in main...

I ended up getting a matched pair of cables - DD ddHiFi MFi07S Nyx Series Silver (C to Lightning, and C to C) those are a week or 2 off, RU7 comes tomorrow.

RU7 has shipped. Does anyone have a link to a currently available USC C - Lightning adapter that will work with an iPhone for this dongle? I probably will be using a laptop, or iPad, but it won’t hurt to be prepared.
