When you say load, what do you mean?
After the drivers are installed, then you can choose between them in the sound options (icon in the system tray, area bottom right of the windows screen).
Sorry, I used an old KEF driver I had and I downloaded a new one and the setup now works (setup kept saying the speakers were not connected). Thanks.

with all this talk of earthing dave does the dave need any special earthing or similar adjustments when being used straight out of the box?

That is something you would need to decide for yourself, but let's be honest, at this rate of teetering back and forth... it sounds like sooner or later you will get it.

Unless finances absolutely will not allow it, then of course being responsible trumps all.

Sorry for the preachy response, not sure why that came out that way.

I love you though.

hi there, my issue with dave is that i don't want to and can't end up spending 12k with an eventual accompanying mscaler. the dave is tops but the mscaler is indispensable too so the dilemma begins.

1. Don't buy DAVE if you can't spend the 12k
2. Keep current set up and save for the DAVE and then sell the TT prior to DAVE purchase since you do not want to sell HMS
3. You knew all this already though
4. I love you

but alot of members are saying the dave is leagues more musical than the mTT2. so my gameplan would be to get the dave to use exclusively with my pm1's and call it a day.

No one can possibly understand your preferences or how you perceive sound. You should always listen to any equipment you’re considering before making a purchase. This bit of advice will save you thousands of dollars.

everyone hears things differently, everyone has different hearing ability just like some need glasses and others dont....one person may hear great improvement and others say what's the fuss?....that is why it is all so subjective

if you do decide to get DAVE then the best way financially might be to sell tt2 and hms privately then wait for a second hand DAVE to come up. You shouldn’t have to spend any / much money then to get Dave.

There is a used Dave selling on ebay UK now.

Three when I looked earlier but I suspect one is a scam/ fraudulent listing.
