New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Received my K-03 Settings Info

Hi, owners what settings have you found to work best over all. This is what I'm doing at the moment for burn-in. Per an article that was sent to me. I use Quad ESL 63's with a Marantz Ref. S2 preamp and Mac MC402 amp.

This was sent to me. Optimizing Settings


Much has been discussed about the plethora of settings available for CD reproduction. Time can be saved by using no upsampling (ORG) eschewing 2X, 4X or DSD. All of the upsampling settings pervert much of the K-01's magic. Soundstage shrinks, impact is ameliorated and fine detail is obscured. As for filters, my recommendation is S_DYL1. Some might prefer F1R1, but on a high resolution, state of the art system, the former filter sounds more natural.

Caveat- On a system not at a state of the art level, another setting, such as 2X over sampling and FIR1, might be preferable. In any event, experimentation is advised.
