Audio-gd Digital Interface
So I believe my question should be.... Will I hear an significant improvement between the DI 1 and the DI 2014 to justify the purchase of the DI 2014. I know the REF will not read DSD file.....but I am not too concerned about that... I'll wait for Kingwa's answer then... Denys- Denys

Hi guys, I sent the question to Kingwa, but he's not available right now......So in case anyone would know.... I have the REF5 I bought in 2012 I believe... I am using the DI 1 bought at the same time.... Would the DI 2014 improve the sound of the REF5 (the maximum the REF5 is 24/96). Just...- Denys

$350CAD HERUS: Asynchronous USB Audio 2.0, 24bit 352.8Ks/S, DXD and DSD64/128, 2.4VRMS Headphone DAC
Question for you..... I have a Classic Ipod of 160 gigs..... This Herus wouldn't useful because I can't bypass the DAC in the Ipod right ???? Or is there a way to get only the data from the Ipod (like with the Wadia I believe ) Thanks Denys- Denys
