Dear Emile, Since most of the Taiko team will be in Munich next week, I wonder if the first batch of Olympus will be shipped prior to Munich, or after Munich.
In my system the sound quality of XDMS is clearly better than Roon.
Hopefully I will get my Olympus XDMI in May, so after I ship back my Extreme, no more XDMS for me for a while, only Roon.
Since many XDMS users/testers will be converting to Olympus, Taiko will probably lose most of the XDMS...
Placed them under the DAC. The new feet did not exist when I upgraded to the Sublime DAC
When I sent my two TD Drivers XLR to upgrade to Sublime, I asked for the new feet, so those came in screwed to the Drivers.
I recently tried six Revopods under the Sublime DAC, and preferred the new...
Dear Emile, When do expect we can start using XDMS with the Olympus? June? July? August?
I believe it will be another important step up vs. Olympus running Roon.
I add to your list: - At least two or three digital inputs to the DAC board: AES, spdif Coax, toslink, usb. I connect my two video sources, Kaleidescape and Appletv X to the DAC.
I ordered a VanityPro for my Appletv X, to connect to my DAC using SPDIF coax. Hopefully will receive it in a few weeks, so I will test and report here.
I am currently using a cheap hdmi audio extractor box with toslink output into DAC.
Dear Emile, I understand that many clients, like me, purchased only the Olympus XDMI. It would be great if we could have a private session for clients in the Munich High End to compare: (i) Olympus XDMI vs (ii) Olympus + I/O Xdmi. This way each one can decide if the improvement heard justifies...
Wil, I believe I have read all that Taiko has written in public, and I have never read Taiko state they are against using Bacch. Unless you have read a posting by Taiko that I missed, you are making a speculation, that in my view is incorrect. They are in favor of experimentation and respect...
Wil, I will use the Olympus XDMI AES digital output to my Totaldac Sublime dac. It is supossed to be much better than the Taiko Extreme USB, so one could use the Olympus XDMI spdif output to feed the Bacch dio or adio. Or one could use the Olympus USB output (which is supposed to be better than...
I hope that BACCH dio mk4 comes with an AES digital input. Perhaps get rid of the spdif toslink that is inferior. The XDMI AES output of the Taiko Olympus is supposed to be better than its USB output.
