Ok i do have an issue
As currently configured, the sound is more fatiguing than i am used to.
( Hence the instant appeal of the more liquid sounding next generation, K1's etc.)
It's like a whole new world has opened up, but it's currently just a little hard edged.
Is there anything i can do in the meantime to soften it just a tad?
I'm not using the filter, and i would report that it's subjectively much louder at a given volume setting than my other sources. The remote control offers volume control, perhaps that is set too high, but the dac doesn't respond to the command from the remote. The remote successfully operates the transport, and i replaced the batteties today.
There doesn't seem to be a way of changing it from the panel, but i suspect I'm barking up the wrong tree as I've read elsewhere that the current generation are all designed to be used at full volume from the dac output
I haven't really explored the different menus, but ive done the traditional hifi thing and used the best quality xlrs i have to link the two machines. This yielded a considerable improvement, going to dual nbs statement xlrs, a personal favourite for the powerful bass they always bring to the party
Point being, I'm sure i can improve the setup via the various settings....any hints?
