2008年4月3日 · The new DA-1.1 retains the tonal authenticity and organic character of the prior design but is more faithful to the recording and sounds more tonally neutral than the old DA-1’s. By comparison, the DA-1 exhibited a mild thickening of the lower midrange, which gave it a warmer, less vibrant hue.

2018年3月4日 · I recently aquired a Soundstream DA-1 amp. I've listened to them in the past and always been impressed. So, I get this one in and find out that two of the big 17000uf electrolytic caps are cracked and completely drained. Anyone have any recommendations on replacements (manufacturer, source)? Should I go larger? Maybe 22000uf?

2024年8月13日 · From prior experience with the Hilo 1 USB (type B port) and trying multiple USB cables in the same signal chain above, I found the AudioQuest Diamond B to C USB cable sounded best. Unfortunately AudioQuest doesn't make a Thunderbolt cable (although they do make a USB C to C cable, which I'll try if I can), and I looked extensively on the ...

2005年5月3日 · I’m looking to upgrade my 2-channel system sources. I’m considering Denon DP-S1 CD Transport($8000 list), DA-S1 DAC $7000 list) and Benchmark DAC1 ($975). Both DP-S1 and DA-S1 were first released in 1993. How does the 12-year old 20-bit DA-S1 compare with the contemporary 24-bit Benchmark DAC1 in terms of sonic performance?

2010年8月7日 · Djlebaron, both the DR-1 and DA2b were trouble-prone but it's been 10+ years since I had them and don't really remember the particulars, just that I kept schlepping them back to C-J. And I gave away lots of CDs that wouldn't play in the transport but (as it turned out) were fine in every other player/transport.

2009年9月27日 · The other thing worth mentioning, perhaps, is the associated equipment and room, which can be seen on my system profile if you care to look. Since the amp-speaker interface is crucial in determining how each amp will perform, it is probably worth noting that the Daedalus DA-1.1’s are 97db efficient with a fairly stable impedance of 6ohms.

2024年8月15日 · FWIW, I am trying the Singer UIP-1 PRO Usb isolator high speed processor in between my MacBook pro and DA-005. On first listen using the stock power supply I thought it sounded bright and edgy. I switched to the Uptone audio LPS 1.2 power supply and it sounded subdued and warm.

2024年11月13日 · Not sure what the secret sauce is in them. But for example the Pontus 15th is the “old” Venus 12th-1. The Venus 15th is the “old” Terminator II 12th-1. OK so now that we have identified where the Terminator 15th is in the chain as the current top dog I …
