Set-up and installation
Contents
We connect the Weiss DAC204 via the unbalanced outputs to the Moon integrated amp with a pair of Driade Flow 808 rca cables. Via a Ricable Magnus Coax cable the signal is sent to a Sonnet Hermes. We also connected the dac optically to an Atoll CD100 Evolution via a Van den Hul Optocoupler MKII cable. We flipped the 20dB switch upwards and chose 176kHz/24bit, just because we can. We used the standard power supply but also attached a Sbooster linear power supply. Spoiler Alert. That makes a significant difference!
