Dear audiophiles, I have a spare G5 and want to set it up as a music server using pure music. I tend to put a Esi Juli card in to use the SPDIF output of the card to feed my Altmann DAC. In many contributions there is reference to G5#s which have been stripped for better performance but all search in the forum did not show any how to or what to do. Would you be so kind to give me more concrete advise. thanks axel

Thanks for the promt answer. Comparing the Twin/Altman to my Balanced Audio CD Player, the balanced delivers that texture which really let the music embrass you. The Twin makes it more clean. In what aspect performs the audiophilo2 different. Trying to get that texture into the sound again. regards axel

Hello, I tested an impact twin as firewire spdif converter last night into an altmann dac and I have to say the results were very pleasing - way way better then the hiface I used before. But I could not get the spdif to work at highest sample rates. It seems that only analogue outputs are active at highest sample rates. Does any one know wether there is a possibility in set up activate spdif all the way through? thanks axel
