    REVIEW: Comparison of 5 High End Digital Music Servers - Aurender N10, CAD CAT server, TotalDac d1-Server, Auralic Aries, Audiophile Vortex Box

    I know it's a bit counter intuitive but it's the conclusion I have drawn. With the mR in my system, although the clarity and separation was good, but it sounded edgy and glassy and fatiguing, to use an analogy from AQ Nighthawk's marketing material, with the mR, the sound was like an...

    I too have found this is the case for microRendu which is super sensitive to the upstream quality. Long story short, after some experiments, I have settled with a Antipodes server which sounds great in comparison (also with reduced box count). When using with DAVE, this is my ranking from bad to...

    From Rob's post, it seems some of the knowledge gained from the Blu 2 and DAVINA projects is possible to apply to DAVE, I'm not sure whether Chord has done it before to other products, but as a current DAVE owner, it would be great if Chord would offer an upgrade program so we can taste the...

    I agree about #2, I have been using Roon + HQPlayer for several months and switched back to only Roon yesterday just to see how it sounded and I think I will not use HQPlayer anymore.

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    Yes, I'm using Roon with output set to HQPlayer which has all the processing turned off. In Roon, the volume is set to fixed.

    I'm using a 1 meter Audience USB cable, I have learnt from the time when I had Regen that the hard connector sounded much worse than a decent USB cable.

    Regarding the brightness of the microRendu, I have been feeling the same since I added the Uptone LPS-1 into the system, although it's a step up from the Meanwell, it feels like adding it moved the balance upward a little bit, the result is more HF and less bass (although tighter) and mid-bass...
