Phasure mach III server & XXhighend software

[cat6man]

I just learned of this high powered PC server and software in the manisandher's thread where he compared it (14 core/ 28 thread) with a Taiko Extreme,

and while it didn't beat the Taiko, it appears to have acquitted itself quite well against what many agree is the world's best.

 

Therefore, I thought I'd start a thread and see what people think of the mach III and XXhighend, what configurations they are using, and what

comparisons they have made to other music server systems (commercial, diy)

 

I have no relationship to phasure except as a very happy customer of his Lush^2 usb cable as well as a custom aes/ebu digital cable, built on the same principles,

that Peter built for me last year.

Why oh why did you have to say that the III is competition for the Taiko Extreme...

 

i did not say that............. mandisher implied that when he said that while the Taiko was superior (with his phasure DAC), he was still happy and smiling with his machIII/xxhighend.

 

my intent was to get the inputs of other who had done comparisons, used other DACs, etc
