About the Dragonfly. In 30 years of my Hifi interest there passed a LOT of dac's here. The last 8 years my focus was on NOS DAC's designs because oversampling designs didn't sound 'analog' enough to my ears. I now have a ECdesigns Mozaic DAC. Outstanding NOS sound, but unfiltered NOS DAS has it own problems. Recently i thought to examine what happening on the OS side in the DAC world nowadays. After some googling i got convinced that the Meridian explorer 2 possibly could bring news, with its new Apodizing filter. I returned it. Sounds to soft in my ears. Typical Meridian sound. Then the Dragonfly 1.2. This was a hit! Normally after some tones i hear the 'timing issues' of OS dac's, but the DF suprised me. This little thing sounds remarkable. The music flows like fluid with good tonality. Together with a Jitterbug, RPI & piCore it's very close to my Mozaic dac. The Alsamixer is controlling the hardware volume. On my Moziac DAC i hear the volume relais going when moving the slider. With the DF i suppose then the ananog volume output of the Sabre ES9023 is controlled. Imo this is always better then software. With software volume bits get's lost. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hybride's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33872 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
