Congrats on the purchase ! Nice short and helpful review, that sums up and explains most functions. Luckily no sound review (most sound reviews sound awful because of poor recording equipment and say nothing about the quality of the equipment)). Questions, since i may be purchasing one myself : 1. did you experience problems after years of use (building quality, durability) . 2. does the use of the usb input require driver installation on my PC, or is it plug & play via Windows (wasapi ?). Enjoy your DAC and never forget: it's all about the music ! - I use Kodi TV mediacenter for playback of CD (wav) and HiRes Flac audiofiles.
Nice! Just a quick question, does the volume control feature adjust the volume of the headphone output only or does it adjust the RCA/Balanced output volumes at the back too? I bought one of these and yet to receive it, but just curious seeing your review, thanks
It's your choice. As per 8:54 when set to 'Adjustable' the RCA & XLR outs will be controlled by the volume level. I have this set fixed at 0dB (one of the 3 settings). When you plug headphones in, the unit will store a different setting for this. So the headphones can be adjustable while your RCA & XLR outs remain fixed. Hope that makes sense. :-)
It a lovely unit. So far, I'm very happy with it. I didn't buy it expecting miraculous audio over my previous setup. I wanted the I/O this offers in a standalone device.
Richer Sounds (UK only). I actually got it for £630 because of the multiple issues I'd had with the Marantz from them. See here... th-cam.com/video/dJ2O1o5KXUc/w-d-xo.html
