What Are the Settings for this on the UHP??

Tried a De-embedder but it does not seem to work. The Player is a Sony UHP-H1. The SP/DIF output is quite good upsampling CD to 24/192 but it does not even send though DVD-Audio beyond 16/44.1.

Love My Qutest but I want to be able to play my SACD and DVD-Audio discs as well as Hi Band Files thru my Blu Ray player. It seems the Only DAC with a HDMI Audio input is the NAD. However finding one to demo is proving a pain. Anybody know Of one or interested in loaning one to me?

. Got in Early on the FPGA DAC's. I had the DPA SX128 Moved to the Chord DAC64 and recently changed to the QUtest. I could list all the Rob Watts designs but the early ones are difficult to maintain. My SX128 lost it's program and the parts were not available. I gather the SX64 is the best for...

Firstly Thanks for all the assistance, The Amp seems to have stopped the thumps and screeching since swapping the Valves round. A such I will continue to listen and see what happens. If it occurs again I will be in touch. cheers

Will look into both of those. Anybody any thoughts on the KT77 in a S500? If I have to replace all four I may look at theses but opinions vary.

Well swapped the Valves and it seems that one of the two is the problem. The current valves are Mullard's so I will need to get a new Matched set of valves. Any reliable sources for Mullard's or alternatives??

Cheers. I swapped the EL34's about to see if the problem swaps channels and will be in touch if the problem persists.

My AI500 seems to have a problem on the right channel. From switching on to fully warm I occasionally get a few thumping noises on the right channel. Once warm it seems fine. The EL34's are some old Mullards I found online. There were 5 but one failed a while back losing vacuum and I had to...

I Have the Impluse Lali and was looking at Aspara Range as a replacement in the future. It appears they seem to have closed however. Are there any alternatives?

Robert Watts designed the DPA "The Power" due to problems he encountered with RF when designing DACs. I have two I bought for my Two Box PDM1 Mk3 and I still use them today.

Aerial By Kate Bush. Such a long wait and a complete let down. "50 words for Snow" doesn't improve either.

I have the Early John Foxx Albums Metamatic, The Garden, The Golden Section and In Mysterious Ways as well as a few of the albums with Louis Gordon and later.(not at home so cannot remember them all). Generally pretty good but the last one I bought put me off a bit.

My Son and Daughter are the "target" Market for Downloads and they do download films and TV series. However my Daughter bought a BD player and My son is planning to. Why? because they like the capability of just being able to play the disc.

First mistake the "Journalist" makes is that the Spec is a MINIMUM of 24/96 for the discs so 24/192 will be available were the masters allow.
