A Confused streaming system - Mutec / SOtM Ultra
@Confused
I’ve been reading this thread from the start and have found your posts very illuminating. At present, I have no way of feeding my Roon output through my Mutec and have decided to try the SoTM setup. The main reason I’d go for the SoTM over the uRendu is the ability to use an external clock.
A couple of questions: do you have the power switch on the USB link between the SoTM hub and the Mutec on or off? When ordering, do you have to specify 12V input, or is this user adjustable? What made you go for the Mutec REF 10 instead of the SoTM clock? Thank you for taking the time to do all the testing for us and posting such detailed results. :0)

BTW. Just a thought. I read on the SoTM site that there are silver and copper versions of the cables to supply power from the sPS-500 to the player and hub. To quote directly from the site:

“You can choose the cables among the standard type cable or Y type cable, copper or silver wires, and the length, the lenght choice could be made among 30cm, 50cm and 100cm.

Normally the copper wire sounds relatively calm and neat, and the silver wire is relatively open and more delicate.

Standard Copper cable : it brings a clean sound with musical nuance without having any distortion.
Stranded 7N UPOCC silver cable :Compared with copper wires, it brings more detailed and dynamic scenes, and brings the distinctive bright and precise sound propensity of silver wires.
Stranded 7N UPOCC Copper cable :Compared with the standard copper wire and silver wire, the sound character is middle of their propensities, it bring very detailed musical nuance.
Depending on which dc cable is used, it effects sound in your system hugely, so select the proper dc cable for your system according to your sound taste.”

Might this have a bearing on your glassy top end?
