Yes the Bidat does lock 48khz very well and so does the Idat-m. Something even more suprising and coming from someone that knows these dacs very well is that on a few samples of Bidat they even lock at 96khz! Alas I am not so lucky. Mine is 44.1 and ...

[quote user="decoud"]Romy, have you ever considered trying with your three dacs the following experiment. You take a digital file and runit through each of the dacs. You then take the output and feed it back to your adc. You then take the resultant r...

This is very interesting, Anthony. I do think that absolute polarity has own role to play. Also, do check the DC that might be sent out of your preamps, certainly with Placette and with your 10Y before the transformer. Chas it with disconnected Milq ...

I sound as moronic as it could be but I found myself straggling with new thing. I am experimenting now with a new AD/DA processor in my system and to my big surprise my addiction to the Synopsis digital cables is nailing me down.
As now I have 4 AES...

Will I be listening to all my sources via the inverse RIAA?
Well, the question was sarcastic but it has some rational grains. If the signal passing via the 834PTF-Air does receive some positive attributes despite of the presumed nastiness of t...

[quote user="Vance"] Romy, it takes several months for those blackgate caps to fully calm down…. [/quote]
Actually I take more like several decades and then 5 years after you each time shut down the unit for 5 minutes. I am known to be not a huge fu...

I may have a point on this
some years ago, I had some confidence with the owner of a shop, and he let me use the demo equipment, though in fact my budget didn´t allow to buy him more than a few cheap things.one day I was psycothic listenig to s...

Oh, you were feeding the Lavry into the Bidat! I understood you were doing the full game feeding your computer. LOL my former comment was not applicable in that scenario.... really stupid hahaha.Romy, I'd like to know a couple of things about the Lav...

Wow, it is worth to live in Boston and have a day of miserable rain.
I really like what I was getting with CD and I have a few very interesting results coming that should be even more exiting, at least one of them is more defiantly is very exciting ...

Don't you have one which you could use as a transport to asses your DPA dac and make up your mind for yourself? (it may happen that you'll like cheap DVD player better sounding by itself) 90% of cretins who own Bidat do it only because Romy prizes...

Oddly it might be the DAC section for which an Oppo player, though a later one, might be worth trying. If this...http://www.esstech.com/PDF/es9008%20dac%20comparison_SPDIF_96000_compA_compb.pdf...is to be believed then the sound of the thing ought to...

I need to add another output to my BiDat and I was wondering if there is anything special that I have to do. I really don't want to send it to John for three months just to be able to add another output for headphone amplifier.Thank you....

I really can't understand how a company selling a power regeneration device priced well over 2000 or maybe 3000 USD could send you 5 units and being al them "defective". Did I miss anything here?The idea of the Kemp for the Bidat, CEC and m...

T, The phrase “"no measurable jitter” was actually the Ed Meitner quote and it was he himself who claimed that his transport and his DAC bound together via his C-clock interface have no measurable jitter. I have no reasons to disbelieve him regarding...

It look like the FM recoding on PC is shaping up and I was able to make some test recordings with quite positive result. (Sansui 1X – Larvy AD122 - Linx16 – WaveLab Light – HD - Linx16 - Bidat). Unfortunately there are many setting on the card a...

Romy, would you mind elaborating on specifics of your power supply? My Bidat is going to John in a couple of weeks and I am finalizing my thoughts. Thank you....
|
|
I'm slow. What's your view on the moray james cable? Heard about it? Do you have a bidat? What digitial cable have you found to work best with it....
|
|
Hi Romy,How about expanding the D-War and comparing the CEC transport and a PC feeding the Bidat? It should not be that difficult to rip a few CD's onto a PC. I would LOVE to hear the comparison. Using a PC would have a few advantages if the sound is...

Hi Romy,Bidat IS quite a bit better than any dac i've used in that upper range (or any where else), but there is a bit of hardness there that I have problems killing off in my system. Its not possibly enough to motivate me to do actively do som...

Hi does anybody have a BiDat schematic? I need it badly, I would be grateful for your help....

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Another a very valid thing to try is to see of the same difference with the same recordings happens with different DACs, preamps the you will take care of the absolute phase. [/quote]To date, my listening has been with my f...

Oh that forgotten pleasure… I am not spoiled with audio experiments nowadays. Partially because I do not have a lot of drive and have reached a definitive return in my possible audio experiments. Another partial preseason is that I kind of able to pr...

Yep, Telstar. The 1547 was use in Sony and Teac CD players and believe the first CD-SACD machines used that chip. I know very little about those chips and have none of my personal experience to deal with all of it. The reasons why I brought it up bec...

I have no “apparent aversion” to anything at this point and I would accept absolutely anything that would deliver a result, no mater how crazy it would be. I do not talk even about the X-factors or about anything “kinky” but only about a plane transp...

Recently I tested the waters of computer audio. I've been using a Sony SCD-1 transport / Museatex Bidat DAC combo for digital playback. It has been a source of enjoyment for years. My goals for trying network-based music files were:- reduce physic...

John, I am not sure that I can talk in generalities on the
subject as for a quite few years I stopped to monitor the market as attentively
as I did years back. It is very possible that something new come to existence
last 10 years. Also, there a h...

N-set, In think you need keep reading as the balancing DAC is not something that make Bidat unique. I pretty sure 24 year back it was but not now. The whole idea of IDAT is (among many other things) that it dynamically applies type of digital algorit...
|
|
Romy, does this mean you got your tweaked Bidat back from John? I already posted about the most recent changes John made to my idat, and I mentioned in the course of that exposition that I would be open to trying some other cable.I am still using t...

So I thought my tuner weren't properly adjusted. It has not been serviced nor recently aligned, I have no proficient technicians around who I depend to let them put their hands into the tuner. The damn thing always picked up Bidat's and CEC...

I wonder if you're doing your listening with the Bidat using its volume pot or you're using only vinyl with your phono correctors or maybe the ET-T-834 EAR using its volume pot. Maybe the Melquiades has its own attenuators. I'll be glad to know how y...
