I'll post the links here in a moment.

EDIT: I'm not doing the upload right, and our IT person isn't in the office, so this will have to wait until tomorrow. Sorry!

Best,

mr gwinn, is it ok to very often operate the input selector switch? or will it fail much quicker if used often?

thank you

Music_man,

That is a heavy duty switch that should not fail even with significant usage.

In other words, it should be fine.

Best,
Elias

I didn't measure jitter since jitter doesn't effect the DAC1. I'm guessing its pretty severe at such lengths. Thanks, Elias

Elias,

If I connect my main Desktop PC to this USB Extender you mention above, through 30 meters of CAT6 Ethernet Cable to my DAC1 Pre which is in the other room.

Would this USB Extender through 30 meters of CAT6 Ethernet Cable give me the exact same data and audio quality in my DAC1 Pre, as it would by connecting a Laptop directly by a 1 meter USB Cable to the DAC1 Pre through the Laptops USB Port.

Thanks Elias.

Yes, this adaptor is passive and does not change the data whatsoever. I can't guarantee that it will work flawlessly since we don't manufacture it and therefore can't claim its quality. But, if you try it and you aren't getting any audible drop-outs, then it is working as good as it needs to be to not affect the audio quality.

All the best,
Elias

Thanks Elias,

That will save me the cost of buying a laptop.

this is the bottom line on any digital cable and should be written in gospel imo. said by someone who designs the equipment that accepts the cables!

thank you again mr gwinn!

On the Benchmark video...very cool! There's something about the "simplicity" of a group of musicians playing together in the same room for the majority of the recording. You just know it when you hear it and this video shows that.

I signed up for the future installments. Looking forward to them!

wgb113, I couldn't agree more. This band can play that song equally as well
at a concert as you hear it on the recording.

Thanks for watching!

my older dac1 is accepting 192khz input and working on the toslink. does that mean it is the revision that accpets 192khz? probably a dumb question.

edit: it sounds a lot better when i let the dac1 do the upsampling. instead of the $25 soundcard. i'd still like to know the answer to the above question though please. i guess i can't be sure what revision it is unless i open it?

thank you,
