2016年6月29日 · Chord Electronics has launched its most advanced DAC to date. Given the acronym DAVE, Chord''s latest-generation digital-to-analogue convertor features the very best conversion technology available, using proprietary techniques never seen before. DAVE is a highly advanced reference-grade DAC, digital preamp and headphone amplifier.

2016年6月29日 · The DAVE is only 33 cm wide by 14 cm deep, and like other Chord DACs, generates a fair bit of heat for its size, the manual requiring 5cm of clearance on all sides, except the bottom. As well as the usual plethora of inputs and RCA and XLR outputs, a headphone socket adorns the front.

2021年1月22日 · (Dave alone however I'm not sure, and I think I might pick M1SE over a dave without mscaler). I have not yet had a chance to try the Denafrips Terminator or MSB. But given as just about all comparative reviews between Terminator and May choose the may, and the fact that MSB is "remortgage your house" money, i'm in no immediate rush to try ...

2025年1月5日 · As the Chord Dave is known to have a very good USB input, the signature Rendu I take it is the obvious choice, but being in the EU it looks like I’ll need to add significant cost due to import from the US. This leads me to explore other options. Dcs network streamer (discontinued but findable used) connects via SPDIF only, seems suboptimal.

2013年8月26日 · I love the Chord Electronics house sound and the Chord Electronics components and their customer aftercare is great. So want to stay with them. Would sincerely appreciate Head-fi.org Members advice if you have experiences with the Chord Hugo 2, TT2, Dave & M Scaler.

2023年5月11日 · Chord is also way behind in the headphone amplifier game. Maybe they'll put something out that can actually power some of the TOTL planars today. The amp in the DAVE was pretty poor (which I say as a former DAVE owner), and nobody with high end headphones uses a full CHORD chain, it's impossible.

2021年12月8日 · Farad super3 setup for the Chord Dave After reading a lot on the forums about upgrading the LPS (linear power supply) of the Chord Dave and the results people are getting by adding a Paul Hynes or Sean Jacobs DC4 power supply, I was eager to get one on my own set. I already had a Farad Super3 on th
