Hello
Before I go off searching for voodoo upgrades and unfocused spending to “improve my rig” I think asking this would be a better option
My rig is currently this:
T42 2GB Ram, 140GB hard drive USB to
Audiophile usb, spdif to
Monster datalink 100
Ori-descrete output stage modded-zhaolu dac ad 1852
Chimera Advantage II ICs
Corda Headfive
Blue Dragon V2 cable
Sennheiser HD650
Problem 1: I am not getting the type of depth I like to hear with my music. Not that I don’t’ love the upfront sound I’m getting out of my dac, but I know the furthest away sounds can get further than that. basically, the problem arises when large orchestras or orchestra/choir combos start sorta piling atop each other and become very unfocused towards the back… this could either be my dac or amp….
Problem 2: as a woodwind player, I know what we sound like. What I’m not hearing is the type of airiness that’s often associated with a flute or clarinet’s sound.
If someone could come up with another possible problem or tell me what is the weakest link in the chain it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
