Wonderful pics -> DIY-project by Terry (ES9038Q2M+Kali reclocker) + LME49720 impressions + ESP32S
first, 😉
here is some beautiful pic by “Terry” again on his DIY-audio project (an ES9038Q2M+Kali reclocker i guess); wonderfulst !!
also the attached TFTLCD-solution->the layout of the screen and so on..
a treasure chest on ideas for other user in building their own DACs !! fabulous !! so many thx again !! (we´ll maybe get more pictures in future !)
second,
the LME49720 just arrived; i tested it here on an ES9028Q2M (DietPi-ympd, I-Sabre-k2M overlay):
for me too “thin“; it had a lot of air and liveliness/agility but absolutely, as said: “thin”..
after i put my Muses8920 back in i´ve got the feel: thats really hi-fi (with the Muses.)
but meanwhile thats all “whining” on a high level and it really depends on your personal taste (on this high level->one wants to have more “push”, prefered more “rock”, the other one prefered more “classical” music/tune and so on..)..
but nevertheless i would prefer the Muses8920 in comparison to the LME49720 by 15-20% 😉
(had not the possibility here right now to check it against the OPA2134/NE5532)..
third,
the Geekcreit ESP32S arrived here yesterday (Link) (5,50€); 2 cores, wlan b/g/n, bluetooth on board, 4 !! spi-s and so on..think about how to use it for the DAC-control (spi-display,source-selection,filter-settings, HW-volume etc.)..
greets for now 😉
36/5000
But in DSD with Kali? It’s possible?
hmm..interesting question !!
must thought about it it twice, but u r truly right..
in front of the picture we have the kali with the lock-light on and in the back we have this “DSD-display” !!
i or u (?) could ask Terry..
(register at the forum and sent him a message; same name there: “Terry”..)
but many thx for asking !! and many greets !!
For me it’s a DSD256 file but after Kali … the DAC plays it in PCM 😉
yes..i think you are right !
Actually, It’s DSD playing using Dop in a modified version of Moode4.
But I must admit, I didn’t hear real difference between DSD to PCM conversion and Dop.
Maybe, the kali converts signal to pcm anyways. I’m not an expert.
