Thx! I see its a DSD, try a PCM version maybe too

You have a better example?

I noticed that too. USB out would mean any other DAC brand could then benefit from full upscaling.

I like that John now pre- anounces coming products instead of keeping dead silent or mysterious until release..

Quartet scaler seems to have a DBNC input, but its not wise to put 768k from Blu2 in it, as the Quartet would just pass the bits through unprocessed i think.. imo its best to go with @SoupRKnowva suggestion. Futher.. Dave has two DBNC inputs so you can connect both Quartet and Blu2 side by side...

Remember inside the Chord DAC she signal is being further upsampled all the way to 104Mhz before it hits the pulsearray.. 705.6/768 is only the transport frequency (1st stage WTA1) into the DAC wherein its further processed.

It would be 2 for shure as it operates at 768k Also see 2 in use on the prototype.

If it rains taps.. that could be a problem😂

Rob explained also (its in the films) that he fathomed a mystery regarding the windowing function of his WTA. The boundaries in which the sync function is finited. I think it means he potentially can make every tap more efficient, and a small change cummulated to millions can bring a massive...

See uploaded video parts of Rob explaining here: Sorry for it being 6 shorts and it was a bit noisy around. Click on playlist for the right order.. Hope its still useful 😉

It surely is Big.. 4 million times big to be precise 🤪 but bad.. hm🤔

Hes a lucky man through hard work and clever thinking. I have this kind of happiness feeling too when i get sonic improvents with my moddings even though theyre small compared to his achievements

Must be without headphones connected.. Just kiddin' 😄 Did you try the EQ function?

A little OT.. but heres pictures of some other products in the Chord room..

Just posted more impressions about the Quartet scaler in its disccusion thread. Here Large scale classical is hard to mike record but this album has particulary clear impressive dynamics on HMS:

Just posted more impressions from Munich today in the anticipation thread :)

Lets say its digital reconstruction is that good that the smallest change around it is hearable

So lets continue the posting from High End Munich show trader days and the upcoming New Quartet Scaler. My friend @MvRBE10 was so kind to shoot the pictures and film on my request. Thankyou Maarten! They had enough space to set up the products, i'm sad i couldnt be there myself to have a...

Maarten @MvRBE10 answered: The Farad 10's give a better coherent sound giving further ease and clearness around the individual instruments vs the type 3, he said you can contact him perhaps by email if you like

Dave powered by a Farad 10 stack ⚡ Customised by @MvRBE10 I will soon have a listen at his place 😁

Its his own designed RF filter optimised SMPS as he said. No aftermarket stuff here.

Such SQ candy for HMS: Be shure to hear the redbook.. not a remaster

The main reason its external is space. There is no room left in the Choral housing aside 5 FPGA's and heatsinks. Further the PSU has an extensive RF filter circuit.
