µLINK or Remedy?
Hi everyone, I'm looking to upgrade one digital signal into my McIntosh MDA-1000, and I've come up with two options. First my existing signal flows using Tidal:
A) Macbook pro -> optical in to MDA-1000. B) Tidal Airplay to Apple TV -> HDMI to Sony TV -> Optical in to MDA-1000 C) Tidal Airplay to Apple TV -> Optical in to MDA-1000 I think A is slightly better than B, but less convenient, and both are better than C by a decent amount. The Apple tv optical out just isn't the greatest. Which leads me to the two W4S options. 1) uLink from MacBook pro USB to coax to MDA-1000 2) Remedy from TV optical or Apple tv in to coax out. Has anyone used both and preferred one over the other? I see the Remedy is highly regarded. Thanks! |

Real quick: I went ahead and ordered the Remedy. If it can't get too close to USB direct to my newly acquired K-03x I'll get the uLink for a second system which is being pieced together. If it IS close, I'll put the Remedy on the second system and call it good.

I love my Remedy. It takes the digital edge out of the sound!

The Remedy is a vast improvement. I wouldn't want to go back. I ordered from Ivan and they were on my porch almost at the same time that I took my hand off of the enter key. I would venture to say that we are going to see many more manufacturers incorporating Femto clocks into their gear.
