RedFuneral Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I thought I would start a thread for this DAC as I'm vaguely considering getting one, unfortunately to budget that I would have to sell off my turntable which is something I think many will deem heretical. Why I'm especially interested in this DAC is the same reason I'm considering leaving vinyl, a recent update to the JPLAY software I use has allowed my digital playback to leapfrog in performance over vinyl(and yes I A/Bd with an album I have on both formats.) How is that relevant to Linnenberg? They recommend JPLAY in the product manual they have online. Not only is JPLAY a bit picky with which DACs it runs with but it seems like common sense to go with manufacturers that shill for other products I personally like. And those who go on about products I dislike, it only makes sense that I'm probably not going to agree with their interpretation of good sound. Rather than just saying "has anyone heard this DAC yet?" which I would like to hear if anyone has, here is a link to their product page and Headfonia's review: VIVACE Linnenberg Audio Vivace Review Link to comment
matthias Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The new, now thicker frontplate looks much better, but Ivo should change the attenuator knob for a bigger one. And DSD256 would be nice to have........ Matt "I want to know why the musicians are on stage, not where". (John Farlowe) Link to comment
matthias Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 As I have heard the benchmark in the development of the Vivace was the Auralic Vega, so it should be at least on par with. Matt "I want to know why the musicians are on stage, not where". (John Farlowe) Link to comment
