Indeed, same with my JADE!Onyx power supply is fine.

I have to agree. Maybe because I didn't buy it new from them...? Still, bad mojo.Why do they not respond? It is unbelievable they don't. Bad customer service then...
No streamer for me. The DDC is a Matrix Audio X-SPDIf 2 (I have 2 of them, 1 in each of my two office systems).Which DDC did you buy (and I am really curious what its does for your sound), and what streamer do you use?
I am using an Auralic (G1) connected to my DAC3 Onyx using AES as connection type.
btw I bought the Hoerwege Power supply which made the SEQ even better (I am just curious if a better power supply for Onyx would do more??) I believe the more expensive Metrum DAC's have separate supplies for the DAC/audiosignal and display (non audio) part
I won't disagree but would it be better fitted with a dual power supply like the Adagio and Pavane??Onyx power supply is fine.
thanks bro!If memory serves it's the external FPGA module in the Pavane OG that was responsible for partitioning the data before it was sent to DAC modules for decoding. Second generation DAC modules (and third?) had this onboard so there was no longer need for an external solution. Your Adagio probably has DAC2 or DAC3 modules.
thanks bro!
yes my adagio is dac2, but the pavane is not dac2?
ah ha ! so maybe it sound a bit worse than my dac2 adagio...?The original Pavane is not, I think they also called it Level 1 at some point. Level 2 used DAC2 iirc.

It's Jade functionality only.Is it possible to adjust the volume output of an Onyx (or is this Jade functionality only)??
Is the print of the Jade that different compared to the Onyx?It's Jade functionality only.
BTW, the implementation of the volume pot in the Jade is innovative, a design totally unlike conventional volume pots (if memory serves, the pot adjusts voltage levels delivered to each of the DAC2 or DAC3 chips, thus changing total output voltage of the device). I've never tried one in practice (I have the Onyx), but I'm guessing it would be quite transparent.
