I know it's a bit complicated, but you should leave the RAMDisk out as the first thing ...
Don't call that proper A-B or something (for this version). The RAMDisk makes it worse.
SSD The same, though YMMV here.

You are saying that the fact that ramdisk software is running makes z4.1 (installed somewhere else) sound worse?

Will put it on HDD - yes this i have to try.

Peter didn't you meant OS on HDD and XX on HDD instead of OS on SSD and XX on HDD

Telstar if i am right you have the OS on SSD?

No no, it is nothing of the kind (and much smaller). And just meant to officially mount inside.

Yes, you can use more of them I guess, but I sure wouldn't do that in one and the same PC.

I guess that's all I want to say about it now. Took too long already ... Wink

Ok Thank you!! We will wait for further development posts ;-)

Sure and sure.

Btw, matchbox-size is the size of a match box. 6x4x2cm or so. Includes all ATX output voltages.

Ok and is that any difference than my Winmate things? Or is it simulair? Small it is. And can you use more than one to give each there own PSU. Or doesn't that make any differences.

but making decent linear PSU for at least 200w is almost impossible from size and heat

I talked about it long ago, but if all is right within a couple of months I may have a 350W linear PSU - matchbox size ...

Do you mean a PSU for the pc Peter? And can whe buy it too?

Everybody,

I like to write some more about something nice i have nodiced. When i first had the speakers playing i have right now there was too less bass IMO.
I had a good sub which i connected to the speakers. Really sceptic as i am i did not believed the burning in time of the woofers. WRONG!! But then there be caim a day that i really did not hear so much differents anymore putting the subwoofer ON or OFF.

So i removed it and was happy,  Happy  also because off the fact that there was a peace off stand in the way less in my room. Keep in mind though that this was with my old "dac" The dac that was not be able to keep my woofers under control! (See my firts post in this topic)

Now with my new DAC (NOS1) and since Manisander was talking about bass that he liked to be more i thought well maybe i have to dig the subwoofer up again.

So i did!

And guess what, the sound stage has become much wider/deeper. There is so much of the lower frequenties back that really need to be there. Would not bring it back to the garage it is going to be a standing in the way again!! ;-)

What are your thoughts Peter? Am i wrong on this one? (Meaning the old dac that was the cause off the extra NOT good/wrong/overlap bass)

 Happy

Indeed unthinkable that you could.  swoon

Are you going to explain what you did so different? Or is that going to be a secret. Which i will understand.

PS: Maybe "uncredible" is an existing word. If so, I'm sure you didn't want to say that. Haha.
 

hahaha mmmmm my memory was still in MIXED mode i guess... And since that is a creation that you invented!!  rofl
519  Ultimate Audio Playback / Phasure NOS1 DAC / Re: Two months now since the first Phasure NOS1 Dac was delivered on: February 22, 2011, 10:58:48 am
Thanks Gerard, I read all the post about the Phasure NOS1 and I see beautiful words about it but I also see, mostly from Peter, that the sound evolves with the time. This evolution comes from the ultra detailed of the first days to the "balanced" sound after one month or so.

I´d like to know more about the experiences from the owners that have it for more than one month. How is it evolved and how do you feel now compared to the dac you had before. The judgements from the first days are very often enthusiastic, what do you think now with your ears more used to the Phasure?. Is it the sound more emotional, more analytical or both?, etc.

Hi Juan,

Indeed two months now since i have the DAC. You are right that the first day's weeks i was i heaven. That is gone now but still i am very very pleased with the sound can't imagine anything better. The thing is it is so easy to get used to this meaning it sounds so natural so NORMAL. You will no what i mean when you hear it. I really did not have the courage or lust to go back. For the rest you can read it in my post. But i guess you allready did.

Maybe Pedal or Mani can jump in??

The are a bit better in explaining IMO.

Succes  Happy

Before people start spending money (and/or more time) on RAMDisks ... please notice that the advise for the upcoming version (should be today) will be useage without RAMDisk.
May say nothing much, but at least (and at last) I managed myself to let it sound normal (and better) without RAMDisk. Something I just wanted ...


Hmmm so then you also now why Ramdisk sounded better..... Curious what it is.....  scratching

 good

Two months now since the first Phasure NOS1 Dac was delivered. I´m eager to know more about how is evolving the sound. Would you please, the ones with more time with the Dac, share your experiences?.

Hi Juan,

I am sorry but IMO there is not more to it than is written in here http://www.phasure.com/index.php?board=9.0

But maybe others have other opinions.  dntknw

Still enjoy the dac every day!!!!!  sounds good !

Not much help i guess... scratching

Eh Gerard ...

Do you realize that this was about your very first remark on SQ ever ?

So how confident must you be ?!

Haha. Now let's get rid of the RAMDisk.
secret Mine has gone for a few days now; yours may be tomorrow. secret


Hahaha  blush2

Yes that was in my head also  Wink Really the dac does make SQ differences more recognizable that is what i think. And maybe some self-confidence that is grown is part of it.
