New Nagra HD DAC
I'm not sure if RCA is better but it sounds surprisingly louder. It seems like when both RCA and XLR are used, the Nagra HD dac gives much more output via RCA.- Jacky5555

New Nagra HD DAC
Hi all, Normally I use XLR cable output to Pre-amp. Yesterday I tried a RCA cable to Pre-amp and it sounded significantly louder than XLR (I kept both RCA and XLR at the same time, and just changed input of the Preamp to hear the different easily). Is it designed like that ?- Jacky5555

Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread
Tks for your advice. I've tried all your suggestion but it seems not working. I've also just tried to connect the Xm4 to my laptop, playing youtube music at 100% computer volume & 90% youtube volume = normal level. Somehow I feel like using an inefficient headphone. My FW version is 1.2.6- Jacky5555

Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread
I guess my XM4 has a hardware issue. I always listen to music (Qobuz app) at normal lever. My Jabra 65T sounds about 15% louder than the Sony.- Jacky5555

New Nagra HD DAC
Is there anyone here trying i2s of the Nagra HD dac? The manual says it’s reserved for future product. Now Denafrips Gaia is giving i2s over Rj45, I’m not sure if they are compatible.- Jacky5555

Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread
I just changed from jabra 65t to a mf-1000xm4. The sony give way smoother sound, better tonal balance, better separation, but with exchange of liveness. With jabra I feel vocal like “she was there” while sony gives “she was in studio”. One more thing is the volume is quite noticebly lower than...- Jacky5555

New Nagra HD DAC
Nagra convert PCM to DSD. I think all delta sigma dac have pcm to dsd conversion step before converting to analog and lowpass-filtered, Nagra just do it by its own (good) way. To my ears, Nagra's sound has many similarities with dsd’s ”house sound”, which is quite gentle/soft, natural and 3d...- Jacky5555
