Would the Teddy Pardo 5V 3A power supply be usable for the MicroRendu?

 

TTouch - PSU for Logitech Touch | Power Supplies | TeddyPardo

 

I have one and want to reuse it?

 

Thx

Well it will run but not properly. There are several 5V regulators inside so feeding them 5V means they will be outputting less than 5V and not regulating. Basically you will have a highly crippled unit. So don't do it. It won't damage the microRendu, but it won't be working right.

 

So the general anwer is NO, please use a supply between 6-9V.

Is there any need to use the Regen with this? I seem to remember that it has a Regen built in. It did I dream that last night? ?

NO need for Regen. Chris's review part I mentions this again.

The microRendu contains what is essentially a slightly improved REGEN on it's USB output. I have tried it with an external REGEN and did not notice any improvement. Somebody somewhere MIGHT notice a slight improvement, but for most people it is probably not useful with the microRendu.

Perfect, thanks! Another box I can eliminate!

Unfortunately, there will be a lot of Regens on the used market now

or fortunately for those who don't yet have one...

[Cormorant]

I'll bet my place in the microRendu line (oh wait, just ordered one). I'll bet my place in the Tesla Model 3 line that some people will find improvements with Regen or Regen-like devices, like John said. Probably not me, though...

 

By the time I get the Tesla it will probably be about five years since when I first wanted one. This wait is minor in comparision, and has actually been a lot of fun.

When do the uRendu's ship?

When do the uRendu's ship?

 

When the shipper ships them. ;-)

[Priaptor]

To my knowledge the T+A requires Windows to play dsd512, the sonore is linux based.

Unless T+A didn't update the software, I think the Rendu and the DAC8 are not working together with DSD512.

 

Appreciate it. Yeah, I posted hastily as AFTER I reviewed the 1200 some odd posts, I found the answer to both my questions stuck in there. I still have a use for the device with my "portable rig" with my Mojo replacing my HUGO and will try it with my MSB and be a royal pain in the ass to them to provide Jesus with whatever they need to support NativeDSD 256 although as others have indicated there is probably not much of a benefit for that DAC.

[Priaptor]

That is for native DSD. The list of devices that support native DSD is here:

Thanks.

 

Just curious if MSB has responded to you regarding providing you with the info you need for microRendu to support their DirectDSD. While I understand that there is little if no benefit compared to DoP, I have recordings that do DSD256 and would be nice to be able to use your device with my MSB.

Does the uRendu now support the W4S Dac2 DSDse? I think Jesus earlier said he was working with W4S, but I don't recall seeing that they have been successfully integrated.

Priaptor, I heard that DAC at Axpona and was awestruck at the sound. You're one lucky guy

[Foggie]

Will the Rendu work with a 512 capable lampizator as a hq-player NAA with dsd512?

 

+1 to this. I don't have 512

capability, but Is there any update to where the Amenaro/Lampi supporting native DSD stands?

Same question, but compatibility with the non DSD version of the W4S DAC-2.

The driver that could support this is not finalized and work seems stalled. What has been done thus far is reported as buggy so it will not be added as is.

Congrats on the launch, Jesus, John and Andrew.

 

Thanks!

When do the uRendu's ship?

 

Some have already shipped and more will ship next week.

First hook up the MSB to the microRendu and send me the output of the DAC Diagnostics GUI page. That might get us what we need.

Same thing as above send the the output of the DAC Diagnostics GUI page.

Will those who ordered get shipping notice/ tracking info when the unit ships?

[vortecjr]

Your best bet is to bug them both a lot.

Supported.

[vortecjr]

Will those who ordered get shipping notice/ tracking info when the unit ships?

 

That is the plan.
