Questyle CMA600i first impressions thread
Netforce Hi Th usb click makes me reluctant to use my 600i until the fix arrives - as I am in Australia, will you be doing a global register of affected users so we can liaise re getting a fix ? Next can someone comment on the quality of anti jitter the unit has ? Is its handling of usb...- vincents

Questyle CMA600i first impressions thread
I am hoping it will be downloadable - Meridian, Pioneer and Onkyo seemed to add it later with software updates - I understand it has to be tailored for each DAC by MQA - hope Questyle make the effort to do this !- vincents

Questyle CMA600i first impressions thread
mmm..... just fired up my brand new 600i. All my recordings are P C M. Using USB 2 clicks every time I change album, even if same bit rate and Hz. I am using Audirvana+ on a MacBook. Has anyone avoided clicks on Audirvana & Mac when using USB? thanks- vincents

CEntrance DACmini DAC/Amplifier Official Thread
HI SilentSound - thanks for your review - is part 2 posted somewhere as I cannot find it ? I have just bought myself a new DACmini PX, which if I am lucky I will get burned in in time for it to be my birthday present later this month.

WDS-1 and WTP-1: The New D/A Converter and CD Transport from Woo Audio
Jack - Hi I am interested in the cd player to replace a Meridian unit which died - although I mainly stream music or run off my macbook a CD player still is useful. Can you please clarify - presumably it has an inbuilt DAC of reasonably quality so I can run it straight into my amp ? ...- vincents

Audio-GD NFB-11
Currawong - Hi - I have acquired both the NFB-11 and the LCD-2 since we were introduced at the Sydney Head-Fi meet, so I was interested to see you were trying one. My other DAC is the DACport.

CEntrance DACmini DAC/Amplifier Official Thread
HI Thanks - a good insight. Yes I will be interested to see more reviews of the DAC quality of the Burson - as here in Oz it is much cheaper than the DACmini and a touch more than the EE. Thanks again for all your posts which are helpful to many of us here ! Vincent- vincents

Audio-GD NFB-11
USB and other experiences with the NFB-11 Edoardo - Yes I have been playing through USB as well. My listening last night concluded that the USB out of my Macbook using Apple Lossless files and being played through PureMusic lacks just a little of high end micro-detail compared to...- vincents

Audio-GD NFB-11
Guys my NFB-11 arrived a bit before Christmas but due to holidays I am only now getting a good listen to it. My other external dac is the well regarded CEntrance DACport. I have to say, paired with my venerable Meridian CD player (a 20 bit version) the NFB-11 is outstanding. I...- vincents

LCD-2 Break in
Well - I have just played my first track on my new LCD-2. The detail retrieval on the higher end is definately missing compared to my DACport/other hp and also to a variety of speakers I use. I am using a reference track with typed notes on specific instruments to listen out for at ten...- vincents
