    Metrum Acoustics Pavane DAC listening impressions

    Have you tried using 8x HQP upsampling/Roon with pavane ? Roon upsampling is meh imo.

    I think @skem uses only 2ch. You’re on headphones. Does 2ch exposes/magnifies deficiencies more vs hp or vice versa?

    I’ve not changed any settings on su6. I think switch settings are for hdmi i2s. No rj45 cable modification is required. Just use any short cable.

    Yes. More so with HQPe on Linux. I’d tried 4x upsampling on ambre but improvements were subtle.
