When using optical out the clock generally falls back to that of the source, regardless of DAC.- xdfjdkz

I'd be willing to bet you can download from Tidal through BUPnP, I'd test it but I've cancelled my account.- xdfjdkz

The AK320 thread
This may be difficult considering none of the AK players have LTE capabability. I really see no reason as to why BubbleUPnP isn't an option everywhere so long as paired with an acceptable device and data plan. Not sure whether Tidal offers the ability to download tracks to play offline but I...- xdfjdkz

The AK320 thread
Using BubbleUPnP it can be done quite easily, I've had it working along with Google Music. Dedicated software on the player would be so much nicer though, it really shouldn't take much to make it happen, just lift a few of the locked down segments of Android they are using and it should run...- xdfjdkz

The AK320 thread
My 320 arrived this week, very pleased with it so far, got it streaming googe music service as well, sounds great. Can anyone comment on how the 380 case fits on the 320, I wish they released more colours for the 320.- xdfjdkz

Audiolab M-DAC - still competitive?
I have had my MDAC for some time and love it, I use the balanced outputs from the rear to drive all my headphones and look forward to trying it out with my Kaiser 10s soon. John Westlake has developped the MDAC 2 based on the same platform. Taken from http://mdac2.lakewestaudio.com/- xdfjdkz

Pictures of your computer rigs! Post them here!
I'm using a NAD304 integrated amp, it sounds nice but it is in desperate need of service. I'm on the fence about actually getting it done because it definitely needs the output relay replaced and likely needs the caps to be replaced. I may just replace it with an M-PWR or wait and get a set of...- xdfjdkz

I think they are perfectly capable speakers, my set up just doesn't allow me to properly set them up as a serious listening station. A set in Walnut would be LOVELY. The M-DAC pairs very well with the HD700s,- xdfjdkz

They are the KEF Q100s, I enjoy them quite a bit but I only really use them for non-serious listening while doing work at home or while relaxing on the couch out of the frame. I replaced the Val 2 with an Audiolab M-DAC and it is the perfect one box solution for me thus far.- xdfjdkz

Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread
I've looked at DHC as well and again I'm not a big fan of the aesthetic, so far my favorite looking cable has been the Stefan AudioArt E-Series. Maybe I will just wait it out. Thanks for the recommendation.- xdfjdkz

Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread
Any recommendations for an aftermarket cable? The stock cable is absolutely unmanageable. I have my eye on a Norne Skoll but it is a little bit more than I'd truly like to spend on a cable. I'm looking for something in the 10 - 12ft length for <$200 with a similar aesthetic to either the ...- xdfjdkz

Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners
I've been having some trouble with my NAD304 lately, the channels will independently drop out on occasion and come back in when I turn up the volume or turn the amp off for about a minute but it keeps coming back. Is there anything I can do to save it short of bringing it to someone to get...- xdfjdkz

AKG new headphone K545?
Could we compile a comprehensive list of the ear cups that will fit on these cans? I find it difficult to get a proper seal while wearing these with glasses and noticed my ear touches the face covering the driver which causes a surprising amount of discomfort after about an hour of use. I think...- xdfjdkz

AKG new headphone K545?
Today I went to go use my 545s and the left channel is hardly audible. I've swapped out cables, tried different amps and DACs, iDevices and nothing is working. I can still hear the audio it's just hardly there. Any idea what this may be? EDIT: just noticed there is a large audible hiss on...- xdfjdkz
