You're correct bflat, PCM to DSD just doesn't sound good. Try to just upsample all PCM to 354hz, and all DSD to DSD512.

I'm selling my Industrial version Intona, and I also have a .5m pr of Tim's XLR interconnect also for sale. PM if interested.

  No worries Tboooe, I just appreciated hearing your opinion and expectations.  I have a LPS powering my MRendu now and love Uptone's products too myself.  ****, after seeing you guys rewire your SU-1's to use a LPS-1 is SO Cool!  And what's kind of funny, doing this for 'only' $400 is about...

Thank you Energy for the clear answer.  Sounds like this upcoming ISO Regen might not only sound better, but also to clear up all these devices we are using on the USB signal.

Tboooe, so you swapped using the LPS-1 powering the Microrendu to hardwiring it to the SU-1?  What's powering the MRendu/NAA?   And why I'm curious, makes you and Energy so sure the upcoming/unheard IsoRegen will be able to replace the Intona?  I kind of feel products that do one task, does a...

Thanks for the suggestions guys!  However, I need something without a headband (gardening hat lol).  Good point about the clip on's and isolation.  Hell, it looks like IEM's are my only choice.   Again, Thanks for the help! Chris

Anyone please?  I know recommendations are a PIA, but I just don't know crap about this topic.   Thanks!

Hi All,   Not a huge head fier, but I need to find something like these to wear while I'm outside gardening and work.  I've been using Bose IE2's, but these are causing me hearing damage...ringing after wearing for short time.     I am not even sure what kind/type/name of these?  Don't need...

    Well, I asked a question about the Spring as above.   ;) ....And how much if any, noise/hiss is there with a Freya in the mix?  Maybe I should ask over on the Freya thread?  I'm not trying to be rude or anything, just being an audio geek.

This is very interesting, I've been wondering if adding something tubed back in my system.  So I've had my eye on the Freya.  Great to hear it works well with the Spring.  I read thru the thread here about it and tube rolling.  A little concerned about any slight noise/hum it might have.  How...

But I love the XMC's decoding/decoder options/room correction with HT.  So much simpler had it had a HT bypass.  But very interesting to see how versatile JRiver can be used.

I've been wondering kind of the same questions...Is there a way to use the Spring with a 2 ch preamp (which I haven't bought yet...I'm presently just using the XMC as my 2 ch pre and HT)  integrated to my HT processor/a Emotiva XMC-1.  No HT bypass on the XMC 1.   The goal is to use my 2 ch...

Yeah, I too wish the Spring would've had a clock in/clock out.  It'd would've been interesting to listen to diff. clocks.

I want to upgrade my HD650 stock cable. I've listened to recently at Voltrons meet, a Blue Dragon, Cardas and Oracle. I def. like the effect of silver on the 650s and feel this is the best synergy. I'm considering either the Oracle or V3 cables. Anyone willing to share their opinions on either...

Wow, for my first ever meet...despite the rain all day long, and depsite me killing my car battery (I cant' Thank Voltron enough for the jump!!!!),...I was extremely Thankful for having the opportunity to hear such a variance of some really awesome sounding gear. I'd never heard or seen most...

Been busy weekend and haven't had time to try any other tips yet, but it sounds like that might be the problem. I'm using the black foam tips, these are very comfortable.

Hi Jinx, Thanks so much, and all I can say is "Really"??? Wow, that's surprising to hear about the UE10s. I think I've gotten a good seal, but I can retry. Too bad though I'd have to 'downgrade' to get a bit more bass...as I really love these SE530s overall. I guess I was just expecting a bit...

I got these IEMs for Xmas at my request after reading all the great reviews. I admit, these are much better than my Shure E5cs, but both suffer, and this is my complaint about the new 530s, is lack of deep bass. I expected to great basswith its dual woofers and the specs say it goes to...

Thanks Voltron! And I also hope the weather holds up, it's been nice drying out a bit here. But sure am looking forward to it!

Hi Voltron, I also was wondering if there's room for one more? Nothing special in my rig but I'll bring whatever you might need. Never been to a meet and thought it's a great opportunity to hear a ton of diff. gear. Thanks leeg
