    DENAFRIPS Terminator: the King of R2R dac

    I'm very happy with the update, I also agree about the vocals and mid range being better. When I updated the dac I believe it play for over a week before I had time to sit down and listen.

    DENAFRIPS Terminator: the King of R2R dac

    One more thing I’ve noticed today is with the new board the USB input is more sensitive to cables, I’m using a USB cable now that was just okay at best now it sounds great, I had a all silver cable I used the most but not now.

    Well I didn't have a whole lot of time but did sit down for an hour or so to listen to the Termy with and without my SU-6 DDC. My SU-6 has stayed powered on the whole time, I just swapped the USB cable from my Lumin U1 to the USB input on the Termy or to the SU-6 with HDMI out to the Termy. I...

    I still like NOS but on some music it's OS, neither one is wrong, same for the filters both are different and both are very good. Both filters work in NOS, one thing I'll change is the "Slow" filter both X1 and X8 light up and on "Sharp" filter only the X8 light is on. Hope it's not confusing...

    Got the new board in Friday, running the USB input till this weekend and I will put my singxer su-6 back in using I2s to Termy and see how it sounds. Using the Sharp/Slow filters is a very nice upgrade. But you have to press the" Mute" button then press the "Mode" button to select filters, I...

    Saleh, nice review and system, can't wait for all of us to get the new boards. Is it possible to use Chord's Mscaler dual BNC out into Termy's (new board) dual AES/EBU (with adapter)? https://www.fullcompass.com/prod/011887-neutrik-na2mbnc-xlrm-to-bnc-adapter

    Yeah, I would hold off too. The new board might change everything.

    DENAFRIPS Terminator: the King of R2R dac

    The setup I like now (might change next week) is Lumin U1 USB > Singxer SU-6 hdmi out> Termy hdmi in (I2s), no upsampling. The Lumin can upsample everything to DSD256 but I don't use it, non-sampling sounds so natural and real to me with air in the room that I love. I go back and forth between...

    Ordered, don't know how long it will take. I'm just happy it can be upgraded by me.

    Singxer SU-6

    No power switch, just plug in the barrel tip in the back and it powers up the super caps.

    I hear a difference but prefer it off. Interested in the DSP when it comes out.

    Singxer SU-6

    I believe the switching supply feeds the super caps which feeds the unit.

    I didn't listen with headphones to make my decision thats why I made that statement. Actually I like a tube dac with my headphones, its more relaxing to me.
