Will AMP 9 not be compatible?

Is there a reason why the DX240 is compatible with AMP 1-8, and not AMP 9?

Does chip select affect the sound? Which micro SD cards are non CS?

I have been using Network Acoustics Eno for a while now. It made a noticeable sound improvement.

I went on my own digital journey for a few years now. I started with a CEC CD player, followed by Baetis server. I decided to get into streaming as well, but didn't think that I would be happy with a regular computer for streaming. After some research, I decided on the Evo 432 server /...

Just wondering if there are any plans for a single ended upgrade amp module?

I suggest you might try the Furutech FI-50 AC connectors. They are expensive, but are amazingly good. Sadly, I suspect we may never really find out how good the 005 is in the grand scheme of the audio world. I only know it is the best that I have had in my system. I have listened to many...

I bought my 005 from Shenzhen. Delivery was a bit slow. I suspect they didn't have it on hand, as previous purchases were very fast. I suspect the reason for the reduction in number of filters is because of the use of the FPGA. I think they are probably using superior custom filters rather...

That is correct. I will add some OB woofers soon, but I will probably still run the Liis full range.

I love the Lii speakers. I am using the Silver 10. They are probably as close to a true full range that I have heard. None of the usual upper midrange hardness. Depending on the type of music you listen to, you may not need any other drivers top or bottom. I didn't realize how much low end...

My associated equipment is in line price wise with the 005, but I like to think are good value, as I believe the 005 to be, in spite of its price. My preamp is the Horn Shoppe "The Truth", streamer / server is the Evo 432 High End, Empirical Audio Off Ramp 5, and Music Reference RM-9SE. My...

Hello all. I have been running my 005 for about 200 hours. I assumed that it would be better than my EVS modified 004, but I was not prepared for the level of improvement. It is pretty much better at every point of comparison that I can think of. Highs, lows, detail, and richness. The speed...

I was using an 004 until I received my 005. I am using an Empirical Audio Off Ramp 5 to good effect. I find the BNC and HDMI I2s both work very well. I did need a custom HDMI cable made to work with the LKS pin pattern.

Speaking of size, just wondering if the only reason for the size is to fit the batteries?

I am certainly no expert, but doesn't Schiit write their own filter for their DAC, but does not do the actual digital to analog function, which is done by their R2R chip DAC?

Are they not writing their own filters on the FPGA?

When I bought from Shenzhen Audio in the past, it always came via DHL in about 3 days. I ordered some raw drivers from China recently, but they were delayed due to Covid. I recently got some equipment from Vancouver. Once it got to the US, it only took 2 days to get to me in Los Angeles.

Thank you for your useful review of the 005. I just put in my order. About how long did it take to get to you?

I did compare the USB to both BNC and I2s. I preferred both BNC and I2s to USB, but the USB was the first type used in early 004s.

Yes, thank you for the comparison. I've been waiting for someone who has both the 004 and 005. Are you using a computer for your source, or a dedicated streamer / digital player? I am using an Empirical Audio Off Ramp 5 and HDMI I2s to my 004.

Forgive my ignorance, but is not the main reason for using an FPGA to write your own digital filters rather than use the filters built into the DAC chip?

Could it be an FPGA dac? Software, like Chord?

There is the new chip from Rohm. I believe its being used in a new Luxman CD player

I'm glad someone has ordered an 005. Please post your first thoughts when you get a chance to listen.

Thank you Paul. Mas
