Digital out settings like DTS-PCM do not apply to analog audio output on the DV-50s, UX-1 Ltd, etc...in my experience. For digital out however DTS-PCM is a good setting. If memory serves, for filter settings, I preferred the RDOT+FIR filter setting for analog audio output using the internal DAC on the DV-50s.
Esoteric DV50 Setup Questions
I just purchased a used Esoteric DV 50 Universal Player. I will be using this strictly for audio only, both cd and sacd. After downloading and reading the owners manual, I am very confused in setting up the unit. As I will be using this for strictly audio, does anyone know what I have to set in the setup menu to insure the best sound? From what I gather, I can choose either pcm or dsd output via the coax digital output jack. I will be sending the signal to my Wyred4Sound DAC 1. What would be preferred, pcm or dsd and why?
I am also interested in others feelings on the 3 filter settings and what you consider to sound the best. Please chime in if you have any experience with this model or a similar Esoteric unit.
This is replacing my Sony SCD 777ES sacd player which will find a home in my secondary system.
Thanks.........
