Life after Yggdrasil?
Analog vinyl masters are the very rare exception nowadays. Most of the music is created digitally... even more is recorded digitally .. and even more is mixed/mastered digitally. On top of that I do not think there is any company left that produces things like analog mixing consoles, tape...- prot

Life after Yggdrasil?
A bit better. Possibly .. maybe. In my exp people tend to seriously overstimate the diffs between Dacs. Most of those diffs lie in an area that the vast majority of people would call "professional-nitpicking". Comparing Dacs is usually a sort of a maybe-game ... maybe this one has a larger...- prot

AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio
Thx for reminding me of that welltempered website. One of the best resources for all sorts of computer audio. And cool trivia like: "RAVENNA was named after the Italian town of the same name where the poet Dante died…" :)- prot

AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio
Muziqboy thx for the extra info, now it's at least clear how it all works. And the linked Fujak experiments were an interesting read too. Still cannot understand why/how does the chain reclockin work. Did you get any technical explanation from your Mutec contacts? And is it something...- prot

AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio
Thx for the extra info. Cant really start to think about any of your open Qs cause I'm already stuck with the basic: why is reclocking needed? The Dac has a good clock, the RN3 too and there is the master Antelope clock too (which I assume/hope does sync all devices). So why using any of those...- prot

I am a bit afraid to ask but I'll try: why 4 clocks? Maybe you can clarify the whole stup a bit .. seems intriguing.- prot

AUDIO over IP - REDNET 3 & 16 Review. AES67 Sets A New Standard for Computer Audio
Saw that one a while ago. It has some limitations but certainly looks like a better solution than those led-fest-monsters. Unfortunately I havent found any reviews. And I'm still waiting for that small aoip receiver card that you put inside your Dac (i.e. replace the usb-to-iis card that most...- prot

Well, for anyone reading this thread it's clear that the pic is quite 'simple'. Didnt even want to mention the extra clocks, fibre-eth converters, the tens of "must" have LPSes, gold power cables, diamond fuses and groundboxes filled with the sand of audiogods. Many of you guys are doing a...- prot

Something is just not right in that pic .. some of you guys are replacing the old, awful 5devices+20cables Usb chain with a 5devices&10cables Ethernet chain. Why oh why?! And those Usb thingies were at least small and not so hard to hide. The new Aoip chain is a monster .. made of...- prot

That's normally a very good sign. The more 'musical' and less 'digital' the sound is, one can & kinda feels the need to turn the volume up.- prot
