I purchased this converter just a few months ago. Read incredible things, was told incredible things and had to hear it for myself after I had been given one from a dealer previously (to satisfy a transaction..long story) and sold it unopened as I did not need a DAC.. I'm very glad I bought...

Tks for the quick response

Wondering if you sold these? It's been well over a month, I see, but not marked sold. Thanks Joey

So..this is an incredible deal for someone. I acquired this DAC yesterday. It was part of the compensation for a business transaction. It was my intention to sell it ,all along, as I do not need another DAC. I am only asking what I needed to be compensated. This is $4000 under MSRP..($11500)...

I own the X2/27 . How does the X2/27 and X2HR differ.? What specifically did they tweak that makes it more HR than the x2/27? tks

Looking for impressions of the Cayin HA-300 SET tube amp. Esp paired with the Meze Empyrean

If anyone knows someone in search of a Euforia, there is one in barely used condition(June '17) for sale on USAM for $1200. Mine is incoming from Poland or I would have def jumped on this. Cheers!

Our world is comprised of many things of beauty. Music sits at the pinnacle for me . I would not wish to live in a world without music. I have given 30 years to the Dept of Corretions and have just recently retired after a long and challenging career. Acquiring headphones as transcendent and...

I'd be a proud member!! Love the 99s.

I would try to msg/email each of the retailers(there appear to be several that are all offering them at $348) and see if they will accept an even lower offer.

  Soooooo. WTH? Are these the AQ Boost and Microsuede pads that I was JUST , 2 days ago, told  won't be available until late Nov/early Dec? hmmm.. Pays to have connections eager to hear impressions!

from Alasdair of  Audioquest ----  "We hope to have them available by the end of the month, early December at the latest"  and , of course, he is referring to their new Boost and Microsuede pads. .

Hi Zach,,, When you say 'later' , would it need to be added/purchased  prior to the Dec 15th pre-order deadline to qualify for the $150 refund? 

Very cool. I have those exact same 2 DACs myself!!! 

wow... that is an awesome price. I might have to snap up a 2nd pair for a sweet deal like that!

Tim's incredible to work with. Honest, helpful and great with comms. 

gorgeous

Since I haven't figured it out using Foobar2K for Dummies, does anyone know if there is a Foobar2K for total Idiots??! 

Tks.. yes actually that is the link I was using. The oddest thing....I'm getting it to work currently. well.. sort of,,, As it changes tracks, I get a bit of distortionIcrackle/light popping) which lasts for just a second. It also does that when I click ahead on a track. When it changes tracks I...

I agree Nana. Without them all present simultaneously to compare, it is soooooo difficult to do so with any accuracy. My memory is not fantastic but I DO know that I have never experienced this level of musicality and joy with any of my previous DACs. none.. I am stunned by how good the Spring...

Tks for your help. My DAC does Native DSD and the components are SACD Decoder 1.0.2 and DSD Processor 1.0.0

I dl'd those files. followed the Read Me instructions(at least I think I it correctly) but when I attempt to play a DSD file I get this pop up error msg "Unrecoverable playback error: Unsupported stream format: 176400 Hz / 24-bit / 6 channels" This makes no sense to me. I am attempting to play a...

that is booooootiful baby!!!

I will absolutely oblige once I've had some more extensive time with it. It just arrived last evening and after an hour or so of warm up I gave it about an hour or so of listening. But I was immediately struck with how enveloped by the sound I was. Detailed, fully fleshed out music that had a...

I Do although I have been strictly a redbook (and some 24bit music) guy until this point.  I plan to delve into DSD somewhat and if I feel it's superior enough I will likely pursue more. I'm not very tech savvy and  I use Foobar2K. The add on that I dl'd for DSD playback hasn't done the trick...
