Re: The sound of media servers (and of various formats)
I was able to mount Asset on my NAS and started doing some tests. Asset sounds as minimserver, i.e. compared to Twonky it has more bass, richer in harmonics, may be a bit more coloured and muddier than twonky, instrument are a bit more difficult to localize, yet the sound is very pleasant. With twon...

Re: The sound of media servers (and of various formats)
[ tokenbrit, thanks but I know that, the question is if there exists differences between Twonky, Minimserver or Asset for example...? Yes, I do find significant differences between Twonly and Minimserver as described at the top of this thread, now going to test Asset following Erik's suggestion I fi...

Re: The sound of media servers (and of various formats)
Hi, thanks for the feeback, I did another experiment, with Minimserver, comparing 24 bits versions on disk (generated by a flac file with MAX) and the one transcoded on-the-fly to 24 bits from the same flac file. Well, there are difference, not huge, but discernible, with the transcoded on-the-fly d...

The sound of media servers (and of various formats)
Before ripping by CD collection, I browsed several reports in this forum on the sound of various formats, the ripping s/w and media streamers. I find that in my set up, recently upgraded to Klimax DS Katalist (Davaar v.52) the uncompressed formats sound better than the compressed lossless, and I als...

Re: Upgrade: Katalyst or LP12
If I may comment further my previous post, and help clarifying my background, given that I am a newcomer in this forum, let me point out that I am indeed biased, but in favour of the LP12, and in general of analogic gear and processing (this including my preference for BW Leica negatives and prints ...

Re: Upgrade: Katalyst or LP12
I would suggest the DS/3 Katalyst upgrade path. Finally (!) this latest incarnation of the linn digital streamer is as enjoyable as the Klimax LP12. I have hard times to say which is the best, it depends on the recording. With the DS/2 I had the tendency to stand up and put the vynil on my KLP12. On...

vibrations and NAS
I have tested the effect of anti-vibration/resonance devices (Nordost Sort cones AC) below the NAS (QNAP TS219PII) that feeds my Klimas DS/2. Results: 1) The sounds is distinctly different 2) With the cones there is more focus, micro-detail allows to identify and follow each of the instrument and in...
