If just BOM, probably around 300usd or less

@iFi audio : Does the ifi iCAN Pro Signature tuned similarly to the non estat part of ifi iCAN Phantom? My friend tried his 1266tc on my iCAN Phantom and like what he heard. Since he is not going estat route, wondering if iCAN pro sig will fit his purpose.

Hi, any info from the fluxlab team when the mentor is going to be available for order again?

You are welcome. Tbh, this product is really impressive if you are looking for a do it all in a box. I tried the estat output as well with SR009, and (with both XBass and XSpace) prefer it more than using stax own amp 👍

Today I was able to spend some time with the Phantom with Susvara. Luckily i also still have my note on Susvara paired with Soloist 3XGT, and Enleum 23R. Violectric (v281) i tried, but not with Susvara. So I will not go there. 1. Soloist 3XGT (older version) with Susvara: Transient is very...

I'd recommend UM Multiverse Mentor (I think this is quite like my HEK v2) or Elysian Acoustics Annihilator (I think this one is closer to HEK Stealth)

oh sorry i misunderstood your question. If that's the case: 1. First, just plug the schuko plug of your appliances' cable to the psm156 in whatever way you want 2. On the other end of the cable, usually you will have a C13 recepticle like so (which you plug to your appliances). 3. just use...

The way I do it: 1. Buy a voltage tester pen 2. Stick it to one hole of your wall outlet 3. If it's light up then it's the hot line 4. If not try the other hole 5. After you find which hole is hot, plug the red pin there.

Does it have practical meaning? Yes. The red dot pin is supposed to be plugged into the HOT line. Is it dangerous if i plugged it in reversed? Not at all. As you say, in the EU standard does not matter which way you plug it. Will there be any sonic difference? Might be/might be not. You need...

Thank you so much. Yes the outlets are going to point up.

I am interested in purchasing the PSM156, however I have questions on the accessory included: 1. Can I order a model with Schuko inputs? 2. Is main cable (from psm156 to power outlet) included? (and can I order with Schuko plug?) 3. If I want to make the PSM156 stands up, do i need to order...

I have both on hand rn, unfortunately the Cyan 2 just arrived last night. So it's still burning in. I can give short comparison day after tomorrow probably.

Quite surprised to hear that the output voltage is not going to be enough for your setup. I thought that what it has (2.6v unbal 4.6v bal) is average. If i may know, what is your setup going to be and what DAC you are now aiming for?

When the product arrived, can you kindly help check whether direct DSD works? Thank you in advance

My assumption is for neo iDSD, if I were to play DSD file, it wont be impacted by the four digital filter. The filter is only for PCM DSD will be pure unfiltered bit perfect. Is my assumption correct?
