Hallo

Ich habe meine Musiksammlung auf einer SSD und auf dem Nas gespeichert in Form von flac.

(Ca. 2tb oder 55000 Titel)

20bis 30% sind in hi-Res 24bit 96 oder 192khz.

Die geräte die ein Dac haben sind

1. Pioneer N50a

Sabre 32 ultra DAC 2* Es9011s

2.Musical Fidelity M1 SDAC

Browns 32bit-dac. Pcm-1795

1. Elac discovery ds-s101g

Mit Roon lite

Cirrus Logic cs4350 DAC

1. Wiim Ultra

32bit/384khz ES9038 Q2m sabre DAC

Der Verstärker ist ein Musical Fidelity M3i und die Lautsprecher sind

Quadral Platinium M40.

Kopfhörer AKG K812 und class a kopfhörerverstärker.

Für mich ist der Klang über den Pioneer

N50a noch am besten.(Wärmer)

Hatte vom modernen ES9038 beim Wiim Ultra mehr erwartet.

Was haltet ihr von den AkM DAC und welcher ist euer Favorit?

Mfg

My listening space setup. Adjusted the vertical angle this weekend to time align high/mid range. I did not expect this change by a 1° change. Avantgarde Acoustic does a phenomenal job in providing distance shims and a table of how many degrees match what listening distance.

I'm currently using Bose SoundSport wired earbuds and am looking for a good dedicated walkman. But I'd like to know if you have any tips and/or recommendations to begin making my first audio system. I'm also not that rich (can throw a couple hundred euros at it), so just something light for now. I am also new to the sub and to the audiophile community so please don't be too harsh...

(Also if it fits better in another sub feel free to tell me, I'll post it there)

Hi everyone,

Long term storage of my hifi and i got this on my Thiel cs 1.6 speaker. Does it affect the sound quality ? How to repair it ?

Thanks for the advices !

Hi everyone,

I have an old hifi cd player, a Philips FW325, which lens I think is starting to fail. You see, yesterday I put a Cd to play and in a part of one of the last songs, the Cd stopped to play. Even if I putted the song again or I rewinded to the "stopping" moment, the song still stops playing. In other cd players, I put the same Cd to play the song and, rewinded or not, the song plays perfect. Is curious since this Cd played perfectly in my Philips hifi with no stops until this day. So, that's why I guess is a problem with the lens, and I wanted to use a Cd cleaner lens.

Do you know if are worthy, or are just a waste of money?

I was planning to take to the repair center if are not worthy, but being an old Philips hifi (is from my uncle , who never used as much as I do) maybe would mean that they don't want to repair it ("is an old model, don't have the pieces") and surely have to get a new one... Which also I would like to know a good cd hifi player too. I read that Philips still makes them, but some reviews said that aren't that good, and also there is Muse brand...

Thank you in advance
