Broler DH, seems your DS should be past 800 hours run-in, which would be the ideal condition to listen to the DS prowess I haben tried the new Bridge v2...which would make the DS a streamer. Not sure it supports DSD files..
Thank Broler....Knew Roon got a DS module too...but unsure ready...you know of this too?
1) Uptone Audio USB Regen is a must. Sound went up 150% compared to without Regen....2) I did change two pieces of fuses inside to Synergistic Research RED. This is a must.IMO, Regen and Red fuses will do the trick. If you want to go max....I did some more below:3) Ansuz Diamond USB...it is at ridiculously low price....1k+ SGD. Win Light Harmonics Lab Lightspeed 10G by a few horses...and much more emotional.4) Ansuz Diamond Footers/Diamond power cord/Diamond Interconnect.5) RGC24 below the Directstream...I have 5 units....but I find may not be really necessary now..the noise level is so so low now...
PS: My 115VAC Directstream is now a 220VAC machine. I believe the power supply used for 115VAC and the 220VAC are one and the same. The transformer is a 120V-0-120V unit and run parallel for 115V and series for 220V. Another hint hint......
