    MSB DAC owners

    Has anyone had/heard the discrete and the premier and could comment on how they differ? Currently running the discrete+dual PSU + proisl USB and curious about upgrading just to the premier power base or upgrading the to the premier dac as well Thankyou

    Thankyou. My unit has been upgraded earlier this year but I don't know how much extra or processing power it has. Do we know if it's possible to plug something like a Mac mini into the streamer network port on the k series and run HQ player from there rather than plug it in downstream?

    Would anyone have experience with a k30 and using hqplayer to up sample to Dsd? Could you share how far you could push it?

    It will likely depend on how big the room is. I had no issues with the aic and a set of harbeth p3s ESR which are 88 DB that they were in near field

    Thank you for that - good to see a photo of the upgrade! Ive read alot about the smps that antipodes use and its all positive. The tweak I was considering was re-routing the yellow wire to drive the player card instead of the internal psu...

    I've been toying with a similar idea with the k30. Pondering disconnecting the power feed to the player/USB card and switching the external 12v out from the player card to be a 12v to power the USB/player card separately... Just mindful that while it sounds good it will likely turn to 💩and I...

    Aqua Acoustic La Scala MkII Optologic

    Any comments on how they are similar or differ? I had the la scala on demo for a while and loved it though found a smoking deal on the discrete a while later and ended up there.

    Aqua Acoustic La Scala MkII Optologic

    Has anyone had ears on the msb discrete and LA scala in the same setting? Hard to find comparisons between these two.

    Dumb question but the DX320 when connected to the pc isnt showing as a playback device (windows 11). From what Ive read the driver would auto install but nada. In usb file transfer mode I can access the sd card and in "no data transfer mode" I see three unknown items appear in device manager...

    Aqua Acoustic La Scala MkII Optologic

    I had a la scala and linq here for demo for a couple of months and got to play with the different inputs. To my ears (and my partners) there was stuff all in it when we compared antipodes k30 usb into the la scala and linq w/hqcore i2s into the la scala. My take is if you have a good/great USB...
