Which BIT do I need?
« on: 27 Feb 2016, 03:27 am »
Hey guys, just please tell me I've got the right one. Just ordered the BIT 5. Here is my system. Headphone based only. Lenovo Think Pad, 2 AC powered usb hubs, a usb powered 5VDC DAC (Resonessence Concero HD), my Bryston BHA-1 and the occasional AC plug for my powered back up hard drive. All told, 4 plugs full time with the occasional hard drive back up. Thanks, Nordkapp. :roll:

Hope you don't mind if i piggyback on your thread . I have the bit 5 . I have a epson projector running , a bryston sp2 running , a oppo 103 running , a ayre qb9 dac running and a cable box running right now . Too much ? sounds good . Would a bigger unit sound better ? What sound degradation would i notice if drawing more power than the bit5 is capable of ?

Nope, not at all. Have you had any problems with your current application of the BIT 5?

No issues . Major improvemnet adding the bit in my system . Noise floor lowered a great deal . Have had for about a year . The Epson has just recently been added and that draws around 800 watts . Not worried about the rest being too much .

Cool, thanks. I suspect I should be well within it's limits then. Carry on.
