100+ Head-Fier
Anyone try this DAC? Would love some thoughts on the DAC and the headphone output.
How does the wireless on this DAC work? What's the deal? Very interested in this Dac and have been for years with the same Jolida version.
Actually Air Play device tells me everything. I'm thinking it could be used as a Roon Endpoint then. I may have to get one. I have wanted this tube dac since version 2.‘I have not used the WIFI. According to the instructions it is an AirPlay device. I primarily use USB or Optical. Most of my music is CD rips to flac or streamed via Amazon HD.
I have been very satisfied with the quality of the audio of these formats and really have not ventured into DSD, MQA, or other such formats. The primary source for most of my music is a HP Spectre 360 laptop. I also use a Kahn Cube as a storage device/portable transport.
Sorry I wasn’t much help, but it was not a feature that I considered when purchasing.
It is a great DAC. I was basically just wanting to get a decent tube dac for my Lyr3 and was looking for something other than flood of hybrid dac/amps. What caught my attention was First, Jim Fosgate design. I am a big fan of the pioneers in audio, the inventors, in recording - playing - listening to music. Jim Fosgate being involved with this dac meant a lot to me. I had to pass on the Rupert Neve offering of the Fidelice, I enjoy home cooked meals a lot and I can't cook. Second, was the path of the dac chip to tubes to class A - A/B amp (no op-amps). Third, and what I spent the most time researching the 12AX7 tubes. All of this meant absolutely nothing to me upon first listen of this DAC, then it was all about the music.Actually Air Play device tells me everything. I'm thinking it could be used as a Roon Endpoint then. I may have to get one. I have wanted this tube dac since version 2.
