walastik ang dbpoweramp, insert CD lang tapos press rip, yun na yun. ;D

kaya pala madami ito ang gusto eh...

malaking convenience ang dbpoweramp sa akin, Enigma pa lang 5 albums na, imagine search ko dati isa-isa mga album art niyan, rename pa tapos lagay pa sa folder, etc. Ngayon isang pindot na lang hehehe...

na-miss ko bigla ang CD Warehouse... ;D

nagamit ko na rin ang dbpoweramp a few days ago, I think December 31 or January 1 ko ito unang ginamit. Ang ganda nga, at mabilis rin mag-rip ng CDs to FLAC. Very useful rin na it would search the internet for the details of the audio CD, including album art if available. Nakakatuwa :D

May una ako ginamit na freeware na flac/cd ripper program, pero parang hindi maganda ang naging sound quality ng mga flac files ko. sa dbpoweramp, parang mas maganda ang quality ng flac.

Samsung's 12.2" laptop comes with mobile version Wolfson DAC. S Player natively plays flac and alac. Pricey but if it sounds good, I like to do away with my usb DAC.

Andami ko natutunan dito, Thanks for sharing guys especially the FoobarCon.

I've been thinking before kung may Android app na pwede mag-remote control ng PC para hindi na gagamitan ng Monitor/TV for managing music it seems FoobarCon can do it although kelangan pa din ng monitor for other tasks like logging in/shutting down. I'm thinking of getting a Intel NUC as music server.

Current setup:

My wife's old Samsung Jet cellphone > SMSL SA-36a Pro > 14AWG lamp cord > PSB Imagine XB

No flac music for now tyaga muna sa 320kbps mp3.
I was just surprised mas mataaas ata voltage output ng lumang Samsung Jet compared to Samsung Galaxy S4 when connected to smsl sa-36a pro.

Ipon ipon muna for now, next November pa ulet pwede bumili ng audio products. :)

I'm using Android and IOS to remote my Foobar and Jriver.

for shutting down the PC, you can download the RD Client for Android and you can shutdown the PC using that app. No need for monitor.

Been through the remote biz. For me it's a novelty. With the bugs I encountered, I ditched the idea. How hard is it to reach for my av rack which is 2 meters away?

Thanks Sir Courage, I'll try that with my laptop before I jump in to my plan of using Intel NUC with no Monitor, keyboard and Mouse.   ;D

If you have a DAC, some of our friends here are exploring smartphone to DAC via OTG connections, something you maybe interested to explore too. :)

Gusto ko din try iyan. iPhone 5 ->ODAC->Schiit Asgard->Westone IEM. Kaso need camera connection kit cable and usb hub cable to fool iOS to give full power. Ang daming cable he he. Hindi na malinis tignan.

mine is as simple as it gets.  feel the convienience outweighs the SQ im losing.  hehe.  Quite surprising but find it better than my nad cdp before.  Playing all FLAC files and 3D movies all in one package.

Mede8er 800x3d--->  Creek amp----> Xavian Speakers

I though i will need a dedicated dac but surprisingly, the RTD1186 SQ is superb!

Thanks

I have that set up - Samsung Note 3-OTG-Fiio E18-AKG Q701/NAD HP 50

The only thing you need to watch out for is if your DAC is compatible with Android. There's a thread in Head Fi listing down all compatible DACs per phone model/brand.

Hey can anybody here suggest a good DAC that can act as a preamp? Probably something with variable output like the Bel Canto 1.5 posted at the For Sale section here.

Kunin ko na sana yun, kaso forced ako to purchase the LNS1 from the seller which i dont need :(

Bel Canto is your best option since it is available. Else another option is Benchmark or Mytek

Thanks sa input sir Jen. I'd really like to get the Bel Canto DAC 1.5 but im really hesitant to do so because I also have a battery based power supply and would like to utilise it. The LNS1 is just getting in the way of the deal and I understand where the seller is coming from. No worries at all.

Any ideas where I can source out a Benchmark DAC1 or Mytek DSD instead? :)
