Gordon Rankin, it is the guy who promotes the silver-wired transformers? Oh, yes I need to put him my news section….
On the serious note I do not know if your IT people are correct as it might be too deal question to them and average corporate IT pe...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"][quote user="Telstar"] I meant that the Lynx digital output may retain some noise from the computer, not that you get noise from the onboard soundcard (provided that you have one -You have onboard audio disabled in the bios...

Ive tried various configurations but was unable to produce a recording that is similar to the fm transmission, although its not too terrible. I monitor the sound by using the same output of the Sansui that goes into the DAW. Replaying the file, I n...

Romy,I've been using the AFI1 for the last few months. I haven't done any detailed comparisons with my other two 'interfaces' (actually, they're multichannel ADC/DACs with AES ouputs), but I think the AFI1 is excellent.The only issue that I have with...

[quote user="manisandher"] Yes, please try this - I would be very interested in your experience. (Does your Lynx have built-in 75 Ohm termination?) . [/quote]
Yes, Lynx has 75R clocks in and out.

I got my IBM ThinkCentre machine and true felt in love with it. What is wonderful little box. It is very quiet as it as it is fast for what I need to do and it is just perfect size for in-system DAW. I got IceDoc external drive array and they work ve...

I have old PCI Lynx card. I think they do have a new version with PciE, it call Lynx AES16e:

It still despite the PciE will not...

1) I play a CD on an 'excellent' CD transport. I take the digital output from this (spdif or AES) and connect it to a PC interface (a Lynx or RME card). I capture the digital output on the PC as a .wav file using Wavelab or something similar.2) I...

I do not know what you are trying to do, why do you need the Lynx card, why is need to be modified and what does it mean “powered individually”, the people looks like sell power supply and they push the notion of individual power but no one said that...

I was playing some 168K and 192K files recently and I have discovered that the higher sampling rate the more sensitive Sound to Pacific serve in master mode. At 1X Sound slightly better in Master Mode, still tolerable with independent clocks. At 2X t...
|
|
By the way, I just calculated. 22Hz x 440Hz / 44.1kHz = 0.21950137Hz. It means that offset of your Pacific cloak to 22Hz of sapling rate would lead to 0.22Hz offset of A tone. I truly do not feel that it has any practical influence. Particularly con...

I do not know what to say. Daniel is very knowledgeable person and it is the dual-wire specification (as I was told today) then I would doubt that Mr. Weiss would not comply with it. It is possible that it does it, you might not know how to activate ...
|
|
Romy,I've wanted to do this comparison for a while now. Apart from just not having the time recently, the biggest obstacle has been not being able to use the Pacific in Master mode above 96KHz. As you know, it will only output a clock at 1x/2x 44...

[quote user="manisandher"]
Yes, understood. But does it self-terminate? If not, you will need to use a T-connector and a 75 Ohm BNC terminator at the wordclock input. [/quote]
Mani, I do not think that it is necessary to self-terminate it....
|
|
[quote user="manisandher"]Related to posts on other threads, I recall noting that the Model Two's clock frequency is slightly off 44.1 KHz.With the Model Two in Master mode, the Weiss AFI1 reads the clock frequency as something like 44.08 KHz (I'm no...

PS audio of cause would like to push own agenda but if I have to make $1500 music server then I would go to different direction. I would use the “expensive” Pro audio “mastering” sound cars like RME, or Lynx, or Digital Audio Denmark, with on board A...

I did today my first recording with Model 2. The configuration-wise it was very cool. The Pacific now in single-wire mode while it does A/B to 88/24 and the clock also outputs 88K. The single-wire mode is the reason why I moved from the Model One...

The initials post was the body of email that Kostas sent to me and considering it’s format he presumed that I will me post it on my site. So, I did it (with his permission). I ran all those tracks once (some of them just a few seconds) and below is v...

This weekend I decide to take my FM where it should be. I ran ~125” and installed a dipole on the roof of my building and serviced my tuner. The result was as expected but there was something unexpected. Along with all normal benefits of better anten...

OK, now it looks like that I finally finalized my first experimental draft of FM recoding setup. The AD122, outputting the 24/96 stream, into PC’s uncompressed WAV files via Lynx 16 interface. For the time being I decide to use the DA924 as D/A. With...

[quote user="jtavan"]It looks like you're looking at the right brands for ADC. It seems likely to me that getting proper A/D conversion is as hard as or harder than getting proper D/A conversion. I'm currently shopping for a good A/D converter for a ...

[quote user="jtavan"] I would be interested to hear your reaction to the same CD ripped properly on a CD-ROM drive rather than recorded from SPDIF stream. If your transport is VERY good, they should be equivalent... but on damaged discs, or with bad ...

The last two weeks I have no preamp in house. I have great vintage EVS attenuators but I can’t use them with Melquiades as they talk with Milq’s input filters absolutely killing sound. The only way I can play music those days is only from my DAW,...
|
|
Yes, it is a different link but I am sure what it is. They claim it as audio transport but they claim an optional CD hardware and software. What does it mean “optional”. If it is a regular DAW machine then it is fine, there are plenty of them out the...

N-set, I very well understand what you are saying but I’m VERY hesitant to make any sense from it, not to mention to navigate my opinion from it. I think to use the anises like this in discreet fashion is a bit wrong for the reason I stated above. ...

I wasn't involved in putting this together so perhaps one or two of those that did will chime in.From the thread..."The source was J River playing through a Lynx AES16 soundcard. Two digital outputs to the Behringer DCX2496s, acting as digital XOs an...

I'll take two of those decoud!It makes all the sense in the world but just doesn't seem to work that way. Al Moulton from Goodwins sat me down with that $5k Alpha DAC when it came out c.5 years ago and basically gave me the keys to that big room for ...

Jeremy, another few lead that I think might conceder.
Manly Labs has their 20-bit digital to analogue converter that uses the Pacific Microsonics processor inside. I was told that is available as the “street price” for ~$6K-$7K and it might be a “f...

[quote user="oxric"]However, a new UK venture seems to have taken on board most of the criteria that I had set myself and come up with an off-the-shelf solution. Please see below:http://www.itemaudio.co.uk/windows_audio_transport.htmlI am however dau...
