Rogue Audio RP-1 DAC use

I am using BlueJean Cables throughout (speakers digital and RCA). I even switched from optical to coax out on the vault. Still can't really hear a difference.

Let me correct the part about can't hear a difference. I can hear a slight difference neither one sounds better just slightly different. When I have my daughter switch back and forth I can tell there is a difference, not better or worse just different, but I can't tell which is which. Not a true blind test but close enough. 

@abnerjack look bud…read my first post where I shared my experience with different DACs running them with RP1 and shared the best method of comparing DACs from my experience. Calling my post useless…that’s rich.
It’s obvious you’re incapable of digesting the information in my post probably due to limited capacity, or it could be my jersey accent…who knows.

The only useless posts here are yours. You took things out of context and picked a fight while providing zero value for the OP. Is there anything you wanted to share from your experience? Got anything to recommend? Or are you here to just rate responses?

Not sure what your beef is with me. But I don’t intend to continue entertaining your nonsense. It’s counterproductive to this discussion and arguing with someone like you isn’t time well spent. Take care.

     Thegreenline, as I own an RP-1, I feel compelled to speak. However I’m not clear as to what pre you replaced with the Rogue. Also is the Rogue new or used ?                               My midfi system is a Schiit Yiggy, Rogue RP-1, Had Inspire amp rotated with a 50 wpc SS kit amp to Zu Omens. I currently stream with a Project Ultra II. I was into home theater and switched to 2 ch, however I never tried to integrate the two. When I  first obtained the Rogue, I streamed with a laptop to a Schiit Bifrost. I have an Oppo 105 in the closet. With the Rogue I tried the Oppo, Cambridge DAC Magic, Schiit Bifrost and Yiggy. I’ve tried 4 different brands of interconnects, a couple power cables and 4 different USB cables. I was able to tell a difference every single time. So currently the Rogue has a Morrow level 3 power cable, Cardas Clear USB,  Morrow 4 IC’s, Tekefunken G73R tubes and isolation footers under the factory feet. The power comes through a Richard Gray filter. My take from what I’ve done is Absolutely change out the JJ’s in the Rogue. But play around with your system, as you should hear all of your changes. Unfortunately I can’t say what’s wrong from here. Apologies for my writing as I’m using my phone. Cheers, Mike B.  

Did any of the previous configurations sound better without the RP-1?

No, jbuhl. Before the RP-1 the DAC from the Oppo 105 was an improvement from a Pioneer Elite rcvr on board DAC a Cambridge DAC magic then a Sherbourn PT-7030 preamp on board DAC and a Schiit Bifrost original DAC, in that order. After replacing the Sherbourn with the Emotiva XMC-1 I noticed I couldn’t really tell the difference between the XMC-1 and the Oppo. BUT they were BOTH better than the DAC in the Bluesound Vault. Since I was mostly just using the Oppo as a DAC, I sold it to help finance a new turntable. SINCE installing the RP-1, the DAC from the Vault sounds as good as the DAC from the XMC-1(actually I hear no difference between the XMC-1, Bifrost or the Vault DAC) I have a friend with the same speakers AV123 Strata Mini’s (i don’t wish for the pro’s or con’s of those speakers to be a part of this discussion) an XMC-1, an Oppo 205 and a Bluesound Vault. He just got a used RP-1 (by the way mine is used also, we both got them through Audiogon sellers) he also says at first listen he can’t tell the difference between the Oppo 205 DAC and the Vault DAC(he’s just complaining a cross country move will give a more critical listen later) he says BEFORE installing the RP-1 the Oppo DAC was better.
