1: Re: How Good is the Micromega Microdac? (12.75)
Posted by niws on 2004-09-09, 19:30:04 (67.84.178.98)
I am sorry I didn't see this post sooner or I would have responded earlier. The Microdac is very good, especially for $150. I have both the Microdac and the Micromega DUO BS. While the DUO BS, which w .......
2: Odd Problem - Help Noise w/DAC (12.75)

I currently have a CEC TL51X transport hooked up to an Audiomat Tango 2.5. Both of these are recent purchases. I had been using a Marantz DR-6000 CD Recorder through an Micromega MicroDAC. I found the .......
3: How Good is the Micromega Microdac? (12.05)
Posted by AnalogJ on 2004-08-28, 21:27:03 (68.117.43.58)
I'm wondering, for an inexpensive DAC, how good is the Micromega Microdac? I'm playing around, for the first time, with an external DAC and I currently am using the Marantz DR-6000 as a player/transpo .......
4: Digital Transports - Who is Still Making Them? (11.97)
Posted by AnalogJ on 2005-04-27, 05:35:33 (64.12.116.7)
As my moniker implies, I'm not a digiphile. I have a Marantz DR-6000 that I'm using as a transport to a Micromega MicroDAC. The MicroDAC is very musical. It's open, full-bodied and generous. Quite un- .......
5: Thoughts About the Micromega Microdac and Power Cords (9.26)
Posted by AnalogJ on 2004-09-10, 18:46:16 (64.12.116.9)
My current CD player is a Marantz DR-6000 CD Recorder. I picked up, on a trial basis, an Alesis Masterlink. At the same time, I have been auditioning a Micromega Microdac. It came w/o a power cord nor .......

Posted by AnalogJ on 2004-09-10, 06:26:16 (152.163.100.6)
Thank you. That's good to know. It does provide an extremely spacious soundstage compared to the stand alone Marantz DR-6000. Bass is also much deeper, though it's not the most pitch-defined. Overall, .......

I haven't heard the Benchmark or Bel Canto DACs or related players. It's interesting. I can point to individual things that one does better than another. And THEN I can point to the main thing. Does t .......

Posted by AnalogJ on 2004-10-16, 14:21:31 (64.12.116.9)
I have had a new dAck! DAC for 1 week and I have noticed that it sounds different depending on speaker polarity. One way sounds a bit fuller in the lower mid-range but lacks a bit of dynamics and it s .......

Posted by niws on 2004-09-12, 14:20:36 (67.84.178.98)
I have not experimented much with power cords with my micromegas. Both of my systems must reside in real pieces of furniture, which makes the use of stiff and bulky aftermarket cords difficult. I have .......

Posted by AnalogJ on 2004-08-28, 07:09:45 (68.117.43.58)
I'd say that, thus far, the top end is a mite rolled off and the bottom end is a bit bloated. No doubt that the Microdac added lots of space and bloom as well as bass extension. I do find that this ba .......

Micromega made some truy musical transports, DAC's. Haven't heard their recent efforts, but their Duo, Trio transports, DAC's were incredibly muical. MicroDAC is a budget component, but as you go up t .......

If you're looking used and can find a Micromega Microdac, it would be a better sonic choice than the Cal Gamma and it is about the same size. You may also want to check Parts Express (partsexpress.co .......

Early revisions of the TL-51X had some issues with clock regulation (I think it was beating with power supply noise), generating some compatibility issues with DACs that pass the clock directly to the .......

Well, what I'm discovering that mid-range bloom not all there is to musical communication. Yes, the dAck! is smooth sounding and has a warm mid-range. That doesn't mean it sings or communicates. I rem .......

If you can find a used Micromega dac, it might be worth trying. I have both the Duo BS2 and a Microdac and when properly set up, they sound like what you are looking for. I have heard the original Reg .......
