DAC Upgrade
Holo Spring Level 3 measurements, it’s decent when in OS mode.So very wrong, everyone that's heard it prefers NOS mode, even the designers when it playing PCM redbook, not dsd rubbish. https://www.stereo.net.au/forums/topic/256748-holo-spring-dac-level2-review/?tab=comments#comment-40...

I couldn’t use the link as it says too many page visits.Your not trying hard enough, I'm getting no fine. Either way, it doesn’t change the fact that NOS mode has no benefit in regards to transparency over OS mode, all it does is reduce the trebleWell, you’ll just have to stick to that belief, and be deprived. In NOS mode with the Holo Spring dac playing PCM RedBook, there is more body to the sound, and the treble has more transparent and noticeable harmonic extension to it. As for DSD it doesn’t interest me, maybe it sounds better in OS mode on the Holo, who cares. |
Ask anyone how owns a R2R Multibit dac or cdp while playing PCM Redbook that has the ability to switch on the fly between NOS and OS, and you'll get the majority saying the NOS sounds better to them for the reasons I mentioned above, which are: " In NOS mode with the Holo Spring dac playing PCM RedBook, there is more body to the sound, and the treble has more transparent and noticeable "harmonic" extension to it." |
Here is another affordable NOS R2R Multibit dac that's come to the market, https://www.audiomirror.com/product-page/tubadour-iii-non-oversampling-tube-dac Cheers George |
George, It’s all written about here. From what I’ve been told the Level 2 is the one to get for sound value for dollar spent. https://www.stereo.net.au/forums/topic/256748-holo-spring-dac-level2-review/?tab=comments#comment-40... Cheers George |
