Good morning,
I currently enjoy my H390 with spotify connect. I want to take a step forward and I need help. I am thinking between U1 mini and T2. I just want to use online services and maybe at some point my collection of CDs will be transferred to an external disk, PC…, for now I will continue with my CD player.
I have read that the dac h390 is very good, but I would not give up going directly to t2. Here I have a question about the music available on dsd512, does it exist? rock, blues, jazz?
On the other hand, what would be the best connection in both models to my h390, usb and xlr?
Thank you very much for your help
I think @Rockhound has a T2 into an H190 so might have some thoughts here. I use a D2 into an H360 and the DAC is overall an improvement…my hunch is that the T2 would be similarly (compared to the H390 DAC) but if it were my money I’d want to trial it. DSD512 is I believe largely (?entirely) a product of upsampling so would depend if that’s of interest to you. I’d definitely go XLR from the T2 to the H390 as both use a fully balanced topology so this is likely to give you the best results.
How would I connect the u1 mini?
I don’t know if there is material dsd512?
The U1mini allows me in the future to integrate another dac, this progresses very quickly
So I can connect it by BNC to 64DoP and would I have enough? If in the future I implement roon, do I connect to the core by USB to 256DoP?
Or do I connect directly now via USB? Is there a difference in sound?
