    Re: Omega QRs into Everest?

    Are you saying you are using 12,000 US$ of cables for a 800 US$ Dac?

    Re: Omega QRs into Everest?

    The N-01XD was replaced by the internal dac of the Devialet.
  3. Re: Recommended Reference Component: Devialet Expert 1000 Pro Mono

    An update on this.

    I have now moved to using a Mute MC-3 + USB reclocker. It is clocked by a Cybershaft OP21A-D (external LPS). The Mutec is a special version without power unit and I am using the...

    Re: Omega QRs into Everest?

    I have been using also an Omega XC feeding an Everest and I am convinced it is one of the key reasons why my system sounds so incredibly good.

    The other key reasons being the Mutec re-clocker...

    Re: Esoteric N-01XD

    Thank you very much. Your answers are much appreciated!

    I used to clock mine with a Cybershaft OP21A with ethernet input without problem. I never used the USB input.

    Then sold it and the buyer...

    Re: Esoteric N-01XD

    Hi team,

    One question. Is the N-01XD supposed to benefit from an external 10 Mhz clock when USB input is used (streaming from Roon but that’s beside the point)?

    Thank you.

    Regards,
    Bernard

    Re: Introducing Roon 1.8 - COMING SOON

    For those who may not know, there is a major issue with Roon 1.8 running on some flavors of Linux (probably relying on ZFS), such as my Mojo Audio DejaVu Evo.

    The issue prevents access to the...
  10. Re: Esoteric K-01XS and Mutec MC-3+ USB, did anyone try that ?

    For what it’s worth I am clocking my N-01XD with a Cybershaft OP21A (external power supply version) with very very sweet results.

    The OP21A has four output ports. I am currently only using one,...

    Re: Esoteric XD Series

    Very similar indeed. :-)

    I got an Omega XC to connect the Everest to the wall, and the also Sigma V2 from Everest to the amps. This works very well indeed!

    There is no end to this game, so...

    Re: Esoteric XD Series

    Hi Marc,

    Currently the power cord connecting the N-01XD to the Shunyata Everest is a Shunyata Sigma V1.

    I may replace it by a Sigma V2 at a later stage. An Omega is tempting too, but I guess...

    Re: Esoteric XD Series

    With the N-01XD I think I probably prefer 4fs/M2 filter in my environment.

    It feels a bit more musical.

    Either way the sound isn’t as defined/transparent as what I am getting streaming directly...

    Nope, it has been 100% stable in my environment including replay of DSD256, 24/192 files.

    Re: Esoteric N-01XD

    I didn’t have to upgrade the USB firmware to make Roon ready work.

    First impression is very positive:

    For those interested in the Devialet Phantom, they have just become much better thanks to improved design, Roon Ready certification and analog inputs. The black ones look absolutely...

    Re: Esoteric N-01XD

    Great news! Aligned with the timing of Roon 1.8 release.

    Let's hope that the USB firmware upgrade isn't mandatory since I have never been able to update it.

    I am not sure why it would be...

    Thanks a lot Mike. I'll have to try the oversampling and filters with the N-01XD.

    As of now I find the sound of the N-01XD without oversampling (streaming from a Synology NAS and using the...

    It works extremely well.
