    Mass Kobo 433

    I’ve had a Mass Kobo 433 for about 9 months. I use it with a Chord Qutest DAC. My main headphones are Focal Stellia. I also use the amp with my iems (Aur Alita, Yanyin Moonlight and FIIO FH7, amongst others). I think the amp is excellent. It’s balanced, dynamic and detailed. The bass is punchy...

    Marantz HD-DAC1

    Well worth $300. Everything will work without the remote.

    Shanling M6 Ultra - 4x AKM AK4493S DAC, Snapdragon 665, Android 10 DAP

    Try using a passcode so the players stays locked without it. Worked for me.

    Azla Crystal user with the Alita here. Never felt I was missing anything in the treble department.

    Chord Electronics Qutest DAC - Official Thread

    I received my Qutest this week and acquired it with the SBooster. Haven't tried the original power supply but i'm very happy with the combo. The sound is detailed but still musical. Particularly impressed by the bass presence but maybe that's just me.

    Happy with the Ares W8 on my Alita. To me a slight but noticeable step up from stock.

    Yanyin Discussion thread

    I have both the P5 and the Moonlight. Love both. P5 is great value with excellent bass and an overall enjoyable sound.

    It is illegal. I’m sure Aur must have made a clerical error in their first shipment.

    Marantz HD-DAC1

    Great to see this thread still lives. I still use my HD-DAC1 and have now brought it into my living room where i do most of my listening. I am probably more of a mobile gear guy so I put the Marantz through a Cayin C9 amp. Absolutely love the sound. Wonderful 3D stage. I don't want MQA, i don't...

    My Alita arrived today. Only on my second album with them so early days. Initial sound impressions - wonderful, high quality, detailed, relatively spacious staging, enjoyable and engaging listen. Other points - packaging, came in a beaten non descript brown cardboard box with the Alita inside...

    I don't think they are taking orders at the moment. Open again mid April I think.

    Thanks, I'll let you know how I get on. I'm a fan of Cayin and may well try their R2R dongle down the line.

    Mainly jazz but also a bit of indie. I listen out of a Shanling M6U using a Cayin C9 amp when at home. I emailed Nicholas through the website and told him my musical preferences and he recommended the Alita.
