was listening to the radio the other night through me headphones and one of the songs I heard I wanted to listen to again. since I had it on me iMac's hard drive I did so but it did not sound quite as good as what I heard off the radio. off me iMac > HR MicroDAC > MicroAmp it sounded great but much more sterile. the radio station comes in clear as a bell and the same song through tuner > HR MicroAmp had much more warmth or coloration to it. it sounded so much more alive!
this is something I noticed in me MicroDAC when I first got it. even though it did wonders for SQ after getting it, me overall sound was a bit more sterile as compared to when I had just the MicroAmp hooked up to me iMac.
it also could be a lot to with the radio station's setup. compared to another radio station that comes in just as clear this one still sounds better. I find myself listening to it a lot.
should I be considering a new source or DAC to try and acheive the same energy I get through me tuner > MicroAmp with this station?
