Tried the configuration below and it is now my favorite.
In my system it is the most "analogue" sounding.  It is smooth with hardly any digital glare.  Voices are natural sounding. Bass is not quite as tight but still very musical.  Everything just sounds right. 

Question:
When experimenting with different configurations do you have to turn your equipment off? or can you change configurations while music is playing?

Thanks    

Thanks Peter.
I am trying to think of a way to get started with your XXHighend software by just using a standard pc or an upgraded pc for music.  Even if I sell my nice speaker cables I can't afford the Stealth at this time. I will have to save up for a while.

Thanks
Kevin



 

Peter,

So I could just get a modified pc only with the XX software for 360 Euros.  Is that correct? If so, this would be the way I could start and still be better that what I am currently using.

I could get the Stealth at a later date when I could afford it.

Thanks

Peter,

All of this sounds quite good. 
Is there anyone here in the United States who owns your Stealth gear and is utilizing your XX software I could talk to?  It might help me to discuss this over a phone call.  It might also give me a more clear understanding of how everything integrates.

Thank you for your guidance.   

Peter,

Just another note.  I have an external hard drive that I connect to the MAC Book Pro with my files on it.  I use your Lush usb and an Uptone Audio ISO Regen.

If I got the Auralic ARIES streamer I was going to connect the hard drive to it and stream my files in that manner.

However, I am interested in your pc/xx software option.

Thanks

Kevin

Peter,
Thanks for the feedback.  To summarize your response it sounds like a good pc (modified/upgraded to play music) is the way to go.

What would one of your pc's modified along with your XX software cost?  I am interested.  I am selling some speaker cables on Audiogon and once they sell I will have some money. I want the best sound I can get.

p.s.  I am not real tech savvy so how would I get support for setup etc.?

My equipment:
Lampizator Amber II DAC
Primaluna Dialogue Premium Tube Integrated Amplifier

Thanks very much.
Kevin

Peter,
I an new to the music file format.

The question I have is this; is a  computer with JR River a better way to play back music files or something like an Auralic ARIES streamer?  I currently use a MAC Book Pro with JR River.  I am using the LUSH usb.  Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.  I want the best sound I can get.

Thanks
Kevin

Peter,
I just ordered a 1M.  Very excited about trying the Lush!

Thanks very much.

Peter,

My name is Kevin and I live in Louisville, Kentucky (United States).

I am ordering a 1M LUSH USB TODAY.

THANKS VERY MUCH.

Peter, I am new to this forum so I hope I am not boring the other members here as a newbie.  I just heard about the Lush usb cable and I am very interested in it.  I have been searching for a usb cable that really takes my computer audio to another level.  I have tried several other usb cables that were loaned through the Cable Company here in the U.S.  I still have not found what I am looking for. I have always been primarily an analogue guy but because of personal circumstances has delved into computer audio.

My equipment: Primaluna Dialogue Premium tube integrated amp, Lampizator Amber II DAC, Mac Book Pro pc with JRiver.  I just ordered but have not received the ISO Regen from Uptone Audio.  I am excited about the Lush based on what I am reading online, although there isn't a lot out there currently.  Is the Lush usb available and do you think it would work well with the ISO Regen.  I am looking for realism and currently I am not satisfied with my current sound.  Any guidance from you or your members will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
