Tips for perfect audio quality
To achieve the best audio quality possible with this server, we recommend following these tips:
•
Place the server on a vibration controlled shelf, as close to the floor as possible.
•
You can also use the Taiko Audio Daiza platform as a cost and performance effective support
shelf.
•
The quality of the AC power supply is very important for the quality of the sound. Use a
power outlet capable of delivering 2 kW of continuous power without parts of the
connection getting warm.
•
Use good quality power cords with plugs and sockets with Rhodium, Silver, or Gold plating.
•
In countries with Schuko plugs, make sure the connector is in the orientation that sounds the
best.
•
Avoid any devices that provide local area network connectivity over the mains wiring.
•
We do not recommend replacing fuses for experimental purposes.
•
If a fuse needs to be replaced, the new fuse must be of the same rating.
•
Every USB cable has different characteristics. We recommend experimenting with different
USB cables.
•
Optionally, the server can be supplied with a high quality AES/EBU/DAC output in the option
slot. Contact Taiko Audio for details.
