    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    The Ferrum WANDLA DAC, which appeared this year, was created with the option to implement a variety of filters, including user created ones, so that looks like a candidate for this idea.

    Apple Music HiFi

    Not yet, but I will try. Since it happens so consistently at the timestamps I mentioned, I do suspect that it’s just buggy behavior, and not a mere streaming issue. It’s also only the sound that interrupts, while the track actually keeps playing, which you wouldn’t expect to happen with a...

    Apple Music HiFi

    Yes, it’s regularly happening after either 17 seconds or 2 minutes and 17 seconds into tracks. If I click on the slider a few seconds before it, it will happily continue playing with sound again. Vey strange.

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    And another new, and glowing, review on Headfonia.

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    Yes, he did address it, but as usual with him, things tend to get lost in the overly abundant sauce. 😝 What he ignored in his review is that there are quite obvious differences between the four settings high/low gain, and NOS/OS. I commented on his review that high gain NOS has the same sound...

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    And here’s another full, and this time gushing (except for the wiggly volume knob), review of the EF600. Occasional F-bomb warning for those who are sensitive to it. 😉

    Double Helix Cables Thread

    Anyone in the Netherlands have a Chimera with 3.5 mm connectors? Considering this one, but before taking the rather considerable plunge I’d first like to audition it :), preferably as close to home as possible.

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    Mine doesn’t come back. It just has this mildly annoying 5 degree wiggle room.

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    Joshua Valour has now posted this full review on his YouTube channel. A lot is covered in what I feel is too short a time. My feeling is that this reflects how he feels about the product. I‘m getting a bit of a ‘HiFiMan, you can do better than this, NEXT!’ vibe here.

    Lavricables - Impressions & Discussion Thread

    No new assessment on technicalities for the moment, but just reporting that I had a near out-of-body experience with my Susvara and Lavri Grand listening to Pink Floyd’s Animals (2018 remix). Never experienced it like this before! :o2smile:

    Lavricables - Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I’ll keep that in mind. :relaxed: I‘m noticing my assessments are still shifting, though, so I’m going to wait before pulling the trigger.

    Lavricables - Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I was holding off writing a review of my own, pretty much in part because I’m lazy :smile:, but your review makes writing one of my own redundant, since yours matches my observations perfectly, at least to the point where it was possible for me, since I don’t have the highest end setup. The...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    The Susvara subtly, but significantly, changes with each different cable you connect to it. It’s really a matter of synergy, and personal taste, which one(s) work best with the other gear you have. Trial and error is really the only way of finding out.

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    I just discovered an issue with my EF600 unit. I always found the 4-pin XLR output extremely tight, making me have to push some cables disconcertingly hard to get them in, and wiggle endlessly to get them out, but now I discovered this means some cables don’t make sufficient contact because of...

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    Yes, I have the same, and it’s more than 2-3 degrees. Annoying, but I can live with it.
