  1. Is the phase change option/button missing on the new app? Or I just cannot find it?
  2. - dCS assumes no responsibility whatsoever; - Dealer proposes to solve by itself (no dCS involved) IF I am ready to spend another 8k euros (I assuming here something like part exchanging my NB for another dCS product, but thats my guessing) Obviously I refused and invested on a new DAC (second hand) that works with my NB. I could have bought a dCS one second hand also for roughly the same amount I paid, but... ... I have NOT been treated right on this matter and so I refuse to buy dCS again. Good Job, boys! Romao out again
  3. I have tried other BNC cables from several brands (some much more expensive) and the Oyaide was the best, so I bought it. 1 m. for the AR-910.
  4. Have the opposite question. I have the DB-510 BNC for the clock out and its a great piece, fully recommend it,I am considering now buying the AR-910 for the due AES.
  5. Simple. Connect the SDIF 2 - OUT of the dCS to WCLOCK IN of the DAC.
  6. I have a Network Bridge and tested clock in and clock out to a friend’s Scarlatti Stack. Guess what - we both preferred the clock out from the Network Bridge, so test before buy.
  7. Running my issue through my dCS dealer, hoping it will be more effective. Nevertheless I would like to share here my view on this issue on an as objective as possible way. I believe that things are clear now from dCS side and at least I mislead myself (or as likely was mislead): - The dCS NB was designed for existing dCS owners with older dacs. - New clients out of the dCS then existing universe were lateral earnings. Problem IS that NB's were sold to many clients out of the dCS ecossystem (I would love to understand how many NB owners do not have a dCS DAC - like myself). These new clients are very likely like me people who do not - at least at this point - the possibility to buy a dCS DAC and have to live with something else. In my case its an Auralic Vega that does NOT do DSD over anything else than an USB output. Most of the DACS out there are like this. Therefore, for these "new" clients that entered the dCS world, USB is important and WAS announced it would come, as it is the ONLY way to play DSD with the NB. This is not a debate over the DSD virtues or lack of (or MQA for that matter), if people want to use one or the other its because they like to do so and its important to them. For my own side, I still do not regret buying the NB, as it still was the best sound I have had had in my system, but I feel mislead on this situation. And mislead clients do not likely stay with the brand. I am a business developer and I am very sure of that. I understand the financial decision behind dropping off USB - it is a financial one, not a technical, as you could always hire someone to do this specific job thus leaving the development team to go on doing the other stuff - but still feel that dCS should have behaved (much) better with these new clients. Romao out.
  8. Ok, thanks. So this means that USB output IS coming and it will not be dropped as the WiFi connection seems to have been?
  9. I will be VERY vocal on this. I was told 6 months ago by an official dCS agent that USB functionality was just around the corner. I was told the same by dCS staff on various emails. I am facing again another delay (definitive?) on the usb out enabling. Definitely NOT what I was expecting from a company like dCS. Starting to regret this buy, unfortunately.
  10. People... Filter options only appear if you resample at least one frequency. Otherwise is not available. I remember people requesting Auralic to do this in previous Betas. Oh well...
  11. Been there, tried both before and in my case went for a third option (although only valid if you have a pre-installed tv-cable: MoCa (Ethernet over Coaxial). Works perfect, no speed issues and unlike the solution over power line, I cannot detect sound degradation.
  12. My Aries is on 5.0 as of this morning. Playing great music WHILE re-scaning library at the same time. Regular scanning speed here, does not seem different from before.
