I recently got the Singularity Board for my HE-7. Today I replaced it. Soldering and rewiring was no problem. The problem is: No sound comes out. Switching between inputs is working, but no matter what input I feed with signal, no sound. I carefully checked the connections several times without...

Some days ago a let do the DSP-Update for my HE-7 as described here: http://www.audio-gd.com/Master/Master-7_384/DSPupdataEN.htm . My conclusion: Strong recommendation! The differences are really audible: More transparency, better soundstage in width and depth, better instrument separation...

Hi Kingwa, thank you very much for your fast support. Downloading Quartus 12.1 at official Altera website is working without any problems (after registration). Now I'm prepared for updating the new DSP version.

Did anybody succeed in downloading the "Tool" file as linked on Kingwas website http://www.audio-gd.com/Master/Master-7_384/DSPupdataEN.htm? Clicking on the download button of the checked "Tool" offers me just another version of BaiduNetdisk_5.5.0.exe As Kingwa wrote I have to install this...

Hi mtoc, if you are interested in more reports/reviews I can recommend the regarding thread in our Forum aktives-hoeren.de. Have a look at: http://www.aktives-hoeren.de/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=6020. I hope Google translator will do a good job. Kind regards Fujak

  if there's just a tight difference between Yggdrasil and Master 7 I'd expect, that Master HE-7 is superior. It's a different world in comparisson to Master 7 regarding bass fundament, precision, dynamic, resolution, wideness and depth of stage, instrument separation, localisation ... in every...

Audio-GD Master HE-7 Hi all, I recently upgraded my setup from Master 7 to a Master HE-7 and I am very happy with it. It's totally another DAC than the Master 7 regarding SQ. If someone might be interested in, here is a link to my review...

Duke40, I did the same. I also ordered the Corning USB 10m. Unfortunately it's sold out too. So June will be a great month for the audiophiles. :-). I will report. Kind regards - Fujak

I did it too. But I have to train my patience, since the next Regen will be sent at the end of May. Thank you very much to jtwrace and Duke40 for your excellent reviews. I will add mine, when the Regen will have arrived. Kind regards - Fujak

I own my Master 1 in connection to Master 7 DAC since 7 months and I am fully satisfied with this preamp, and I never would listen to music witout this. Although Master 7 DAC has an excellent output stage, the Master 1 adds a lot more details and dynamic to my active speakers. Master 1 +7 are...

  I'm using MQn-Player since two weeks. Although there is nearly no comfortable GUI the sound compensates any inconvenience. The MQn player is imho the end of any digital harshness - sounding extremely "analogue". The following ranking might give an orientation (of course regarding my...

@ mowglycdb: Have look there: http://www.roomeqwizard.com/

@ mowglycdb: I'm missing information about the kind of signal feeding in. A plot spektrum shows afaik the spectral distribution of frequency in relation to time. What you probably intend to proof would be shown more clearly imho by a so called logsweep. @ purrin: that looks coherent.

Hi Drez, Alrainbow, DACLadder, thank you very much for your answers. As far as I have understood you: mission impossible. Internal output of USB-32 is I2S only. Then next step will be: a good DDC. Best regards Fujak

Hi Master 7 users, I have the Master 7 in my setup feeded by Audio-PCs (JPlay) via a Hiface One DDC and a following Reclocker Cascade of three Mutec MC-3+. A graphical view can be seen at the following link: http://www.aktives-hoeren.de/viewtopic.php?p=73363#p73363 Now I intend to change the...

After reading all posts in this thread I decided to give it a try and ordered a Master 7. Since 2 weeks Master 7 has a firm place within my setup, and everyday I enjoy listening to the music. I strongly recommend Master 7 without any doubt as he is (to my ears) really a Master of DACs. I have...

Quote:   Indeed, that would rather interest me too.

Quote: Come on guy, don't withhold your report and your first impressions from us. Especially your comparisson between your recent D18 and the new D8 would be very appreciated - even it would be biased. Thanks in advance...

Happy Camper, thanks for your answer. I currently use a dedicated Audio-PC (JPlay) -> Hiface (with external PSU) -> Apogee Big Ben (used as Reclocker) -> RME Fireface UC (on Adam Tensor Epsilon + Sub). The new DAC should be superior over this chain. Of course it is impossible to decide...

Hi folks,   after reading the excellent review of Currawong and after reading 28 pages of this thread I'm hardly thinking about buying a Master 7. But given the fact, that there's no return policy, I want to ask the owner of a Master 7 (rsp. upgraded Reference 7.1) whether there are...

@ Ektalog: I'm also using Foobar 2k but as you told, I appreciate cplay the best sounding player - especially in connection with cmp-shell (= cmp2). There are many people in German hifi-forum calling it "vodoo", but there is definitely a better and more natural sound in comparisson to any other...

I can't confirm any difficulties using the Tenor Driver (vers. 1.01) under WinXP SP3. Quite the contrary: in my experience the Tenor driver is the best sounding option for the Teralink X2. So may be there are other reasons for your problems. Kind regards Fujak
