I'd be interested to hear more about your experience and what you think makes such a significant difference? Is it the type of copper used in the cable, the shielding, or something else?

Shielding.

ok thanks for your suggestion.

Do you get your fuse? How did you like it? For me it was instant! Hope you will get that too!

Only ordered two days ago, looking forward to its arrival.

Mr Alvin Chee 關於 Denafrips 全系列產品的 DSD 處理方式，他的回覆如下：

"Our R-2R networks can directly convert PCM signals with a sampling rate
of up to 24.576M, and can directly convert native 1-bit DSD signals with
a sampling rate from DSD64-DSD512. However, the result of the direct
conversion sound quality is not ideal, as there will be a large digital
noise floor, so Direct conversion is not the best way in our opinion."
"We use internal processing technology similar to TI DSD1700. We make use
of analog FIR filters to convert to 6BIT multi-level DSD signals through
FPGA, prior sending the signals to the R-2R networks. This is not because
of the limitation or adaptation to suit the R-2R networks, but to have the
smallest digital conversion noise, and the sound is certainly better."

I doubt if what agent of Denafrips say is true or not?

1) This thread is dedicated to the Musician Pegasus, not any Denafrips units, so I don't think there's a direct correlation.
2) Not quite sure what your question is - can you please clarify.

Can somebody check if volume adjustment via USB is working on Win10?

I'll check when I get home. I assume you mean check if changing the volume on the PC (like a pre-amp) changes the overall volume? Just to confirm, are you using Tidal as a source? If so, do you have "absolute volume" checked in the options?

I just talking about the regular Windows sound - master volume in system mixer. Not working via USB, but working via toslink of my mobo, but the sound is too poor comparing to USB via PPA v.3 + iDefender+ (with iFi iPower) + Neotech 1020 cable

 

[ColSaulTigh]

Nope, I just checked it with Foobar & Windows Media Player - volume does not work at the system level.

Pegasus was designed by chief engineer of Denafrips. Same theory. Question is fpga and r2r are involved in DSD playing?

Thanks a lot, not the great problem, just wanted to clarify. BTW volume in Jriver (internal) via ASIO working well, in Foobar too. My be will move to AES in future

Just hooked up the latest Pegasus. Keep in mind I started with Draco first two weeks ago. Same set up Pegasus wipes away layer of noise which brings sounds into your room. Better detail same tone. More air more dynamically alive. I still have Pontus II which sounds slower by comparison and a bit less resolution.

 

[ColSaulTigh]

The Wonder Twins are sounding nice and airy after a weeks worth of burn in.

 

[Flm09]

For me I set up Pegasus last night about 5pm left powered on and listened at noon today! Sounds great if anymore improvements after that is icing on the cake!

Hi ColSaulTigh,

I'm curious how the SMSL compares to the Pegasus? I almost chose D1se but I'm confident Pegasus is right choice for me!
