Hi,

I'm on a journey through Apples Itunes where you can find nearly all older (and new) releases for a price < € 10,00.

The tunes are transfered as compressed *.m4a files, that can be converted to lossless wave back.

It's a bargain.

We had a discussion about vibrations in the topic

http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=1849.msg18970#msg18970 a couple of weeks ago,

consequently we should look for PC casings such like this:

Hi Mani,

Hi Peter,

the Dartzeel amp has a built in DC compensation circuit. The "DC compensation" was disabled by a jumper for a superior SQ ever since, that I did not remember.

I read this thread from Paul (by a hint from you), and my advise  for an operation of poweramps with  similar "DC compensation" choices is as posted above.
The information is for precaution purposes for other Forum readers.

The DC compensation is still disabled at the poweramp for a better SQ.

Joachim

Hi,

in some poweramps, such as Dartzeel, the DC compensations should be shut OFF for a superior SQ . During all the booting and shutdown a larger deep “crack” came up for 3 times and the last one  blew the fuse of the right channel of the poweramp.

It is strongly recommended with a disabled DC offset,
- to start the poweramp AFTER the booting of the PC
- and shut off the poweramp BEFORE  a shutdown of the PC is ahead.

I can agree with this words.

I do not follow this argument,

Hi Juan,

I'm not sure. Reading the informations on their homepage, the procedure for a final result is more complicated than with the Korg unit.

The Korg and associated software "Audio Gate" is storing the 24/194 digitized (vinyl) file on an integrated 80MB harddisk, ready for further storing on the server or additional "manipulation" via an "anticracking" software, such as "iZotope RX 2 "

See my proposal/links from this afternoon.

From the TT to the phono-preamp, than to the Korg und you will get 24/192  files. The SQ is amazing.

Joachim

A proposal for a Highend solution with an existing TT:

The DSD and Mastering Recorder Korg MR-2000S --http://www.korg.com/MR2000S

and

iZotope RX 2 Software --http://www.izotope.com/products/audio/rx/

best

The second day with the USB NOS1

Improvement of the SQ = UNBELIEVABLE - WITHOUT ANY COMMENTs!!!!

THE USB NOS1 is

A MUST

for every music lover!!!

Hi hi,

seems to be the running time of the tune during the unattended mode.
