The bitstream mode is only available for dsd format files on the other hand.

I too think Jriver is the best media player for Ubuntu. It goes directly through (ALSA) to play the music from your dac, and there is the bitstream in dsd, so no modification to listen from your dac. By the way there is no more driver on a mac than on linux, both do not support DSD natively and...

Good evening, for the moment I find that my sound system sounds pretty good, I see that there are contradictions between you. My Rotel A11 amp and Nu Audio sound card has no background noise with the Monitors Audio Silver 6 speakers, nor for the earpiece part which sounds just as good to my ear...

Indeed !

The amplifier is also not good?

Yeah that's hard to hear...I spent $300 for the rca and speaker wires, but yes I have my old cheap 10 gauge wires and a cheap audioquest rca too. Thank you for your frankness I will remember that! Have a good year !

I'll take a look, thanks for your reply! I'll take a look, thanks for your reply !

I have this material for a few years, it must be the language barrier surely.

good !

I just want to know which earphone to buy to replace my grado sr80 !

Otherwise the person who will dig into my garbage should be very happy :)

That's what I said to me if I have to put it all in the drain . Is the headphone output of the Rotel A11 that bad ? I know I don't have a $10,000 Mcintosh but that shouldn't sound so bad? I don't use the Nu Audio headphone jack.

Thank you, for the answer, I like grado but there are surely other brands of high-end headphones under $1000 Canadian. I specify it because it's US$700. For me, high-end is something you need to save to afford!

Is this card of good quality or not , we are not all rich you know! I saved for years to get this and I'm told that my equipment is not of good quality. if you tell me again, I will save for another 5 years!

So for you a $3500 sound system with a $450 sound card is bad? My pc has an Intel core I5 12600k processor, 32gb of ram and an AMD rx 6800. If a $3500 sound system is low quality, how much should I invest? Thank you and good day !

I plug my headphones into my Rotel A11 connected to my sound card by an RCA Kimber Kable . I like my Grado SR80 headphones if I buy the RS2X will I see a difference ?

That's exactly why I bought the Nu Audio Sound Card from EVGA, it beats usb dacs which are over 3x its price and it was designed in conjunction with audio note UK. I no longer have the bulk of an external dac, on Windows it has an Xmos driver like all other external dacs. I can't afford...

What integrated amplifier would be built in this spirit today ?

Thanks, that answers my question! I thought it sounded better with my old Sansui 4000 amps with the same hardware, but it's hard to find something that sounds as good today even if not impossible for the price!

Hello, I have a question regarding the Dacs. I have a Nu Audio internal sound card from EVGA it has a left right rca output, with an AKM AK4493 dac connected in rca with my Rotel A11 integrated amp. My question is, would my sound be better with an integrated amp with a dac of the same price as...

Ok good !

Is the dac of my sound card good?

Good evening, ok then I should stay with my Rotel A11 which I have connected for 2 years with a Kimber kable rca cable? My speaker wires are of the same brand. And my RCA wires are connected directly from my sound card to the amp. If not for around the same price, do you have another integrated...

What configuration would have the best sound, I don't use any equalizer on Jriver and I'm in Tone Bypass on my Rotel A11 Amp like any good audiophile.
