Hello everyone,
I use the Marantz PM6006 with either of these two sources:
- IFI Zen Streamer connected to the amp via Fiio - LR-RCA1 Coaxial Digital 0.5m cable streaming music from Tidal
- Panasonic TV TX-50DX750B via optical cable streaming from Youtube (internal app)
Ifi Streamer sounds much warmer, with slightly subdued midrange and highs. The detail in the highs is there, but the voices sound a bit in the back and veiled.
TV via optical cable, which is sounding a bit more clinical, with subdued bass but more midrange and treble, and voices sound just about right, more present, closer.
How can that be? I use it on "source direct" mode. Can the internal DAC CS4398 render the signals differently?
Can you tell me what could it be causing this?
Thanks a lot!
