Re: HAKAI playground
Can you hear the distortion/clipping thing on the Hakai David? Now that you mention it.... In the room, the ADS/3 is undoubtedly "cleaner" and free from distortion, and the Hakai brings not only musicality but a little "edge". Now, is that the motherboard or the DAC? Is that why I've marginally pre...

Re: HAKAI playground
Musically i think it is quite close listening through laptop speakers, but going by listening to my Hakai at friends house last night someone mentioned with the Hakai they could hear high-frequency distortion so i'd guess the first one was the Hakai as my speakers were distorting with clip 1 It was...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.
Yes, interestingly HAKAI has none of that digitized, fragmented sound. It's certainly not perfect in all aspects, but it's very direct, real and engaging. I've heard a couple of versions of HAKAI built from bits that are (or were at the time!) currently available. Whilst the original HAKAI might be...

Re: Source HAKAI components Cross-Country
Can I just ask for clarification regarding the Deltaco SATA cable. Which cable is recommended? Is it the SATA-1000-K on the deltaco website or is it the SATA-1000 ? I ask because earlier in the thread the link to the markit.eu website leads to the SATA-1000-K cable. I'm unsure of the difference bet...

Re: HAKAI Burn-In
I'm wondering if you're maybe not suffering from mains variation. How does Hakai sound in the mornings No its not that. It can sound quite bad in the middle of the night as well. I’m also under the impression that the badness stays for days, it’s not tied to just a listening session. Since I got th...
