Quoting from this article: https://audiophilestyle.com/ca/reviews/my-quest-for-a-new-dac-part-2-ayre-qx-8-r737/ Everything I like about the Codex, the QX-8 does similarly, but better. I've described the Codex as having a lovely midrange, a satisfyingly solid mid-bass, and a smooth, refined treble. Dynamics-wise, it can be a bit polite-sounding, which I attribute to its necessarily small PSU, to fit its small case. Ryan, do you agree with this statement, in particular, the PSU? Does the same thing apply to the QB-9 Twenty? The size and quality of the PSU seems to be SO important to all audio gear.

Actually, I'm in error. I think the proper comparator is the QX-8.

Better solution than Ifi Galvanic or Iso-Regen!

Man, a whole lot of trolls on this thread. See here for a review on this cable from the estimable Christiaan Punter: http://www.hifi-advice.com/blog/review/cables-reviews/reviews-digital-cable/mad-scientist-black-magic-usb/ -
Guys, I have a question. I have an older Border Patrol DAC that uses the C-media 6611 chip set with Windows 10. I can use the driver on the C-media website, but I'm wondering if I'm better off using another driver - or does it matter. I do use JPlay software as well. Any thoughts?
