Hi

I received my C2700 yesterday and I am very impressed with the quality of the audio and its Dac. Really wonderful.

I have a doubt and I ask for help.
I have an Oppo 105 and I would like to play the DSD audio directly on the C2700's Dac to enjoy the best audio quality.

However, I connect the Oppo HDMI cable to the C2700 and no sound comes out.

Can anyone help me, because I can't get the sound to C2700 through the HDMI cable?

Thank you very much.

Alexandre

I love the old-school FM tuner interface. Very cool stuff.

I have a couple different ways to stream.

1) Roon Nucleus -> USB ->C2700 DA2
2) Roon Nucleus -> Bricasti M3 Ethernet ->balanced -> C2700 balanced
3) Naim ND5 XS2 ->SPDIF -> Bricasti M3 -> balanced -> C2700 balanced

There are more combinations possible but will leave it at that.

They all sound great. Let me just say that the DA2 DAC is very good. For obvious reasons there aren’t reviews I know of of the DA2. I would have no issues recommending it. I spent considerable time comparing all this with both amp+Speakers and focal stellia on the C2700.

The Bricasti DAC has a more clarity, instrument separation and clearer sound stage to me with PCM. DSD is a wash to me, but I don’t care I have little DSD. I prefer the M3 to the DA2 especially with headphones. 2) And 3) sound the same to me.

To me DAC makes a major difference. How I get the bits to the DAC, Naim vs just nucleus , makes no difference I can hear.
