Topic: Best settings for RME ADI-2 DAC
Hi everyone,
I just got the RME DAC and I love it but the multitude of options is overwhelming! I want some advice on a good place to start. I’m using the RME as a DAC with an integrated amp & speakers. At the moment, I’m going between +1dbu and +7dbu. I find the +7 gives a bigger sound but the +1 sounds more holographic. For the +1dbu, I’ve found a volume of -1 on the RME sounds good but sometimes -2 volume is great too.
Am I missing something with this setting? Problem is, I find the +1 a little on the shy side soundstage wise and the +7 is too much, a bit flat and loses dynamic range.
Any tips on the perfect DBU and volume setting for my setup?
Any tips on some great “starter settings” for a HIFI setup? I don’t use headphones and the manual is confusing.
Thanks!
