Switching to van life so selling all of my desktop oriented audio gear. This device has been amazing as my daily driver for my microphone. It is an Audio interface so the uses are many. It acts as a DAC/Headphone Amp and also has great XLR inputs for microphone connection with studio...

switching to van life so selling all of my desktop oriented gear. Saving up for some nice IEMs. Here is my Liquid Platinum Amp. It’s been my daily driver for about a year now. I’m original owner. Comes with power supply, power cables, pair of XLR cables, and 2 Matching pair J&J E88CC tubes...

Switching to van life so selling off all of my desktop oriented gear so I can afford some good IEMs. Here is my SMSL-SU9 DAC! She’s in great shape! Purchased Nov 2021 and used moderately. Also comes with power cable, Remote, Bluetooth dongle, and USB. Asking price is $345. Shipping & PayPal...

Sort of on topic and sort of off. How much is a Kitsune Spring 2 Level 2 going for rn used?

Yeah, the thing that throws me off is it works completely fine straight USB to my Holo Audio Spring 2 DAC. Right now I have the Singxer SU2 in the chain but im running , ASDM7EC, ext2, DSD 256 as of right now. ASDM7EC is really hard to run. With an i9 9900k and CUDA, you can only do DSD 256. So...

just sold this and gonna miss her! Oh the pain of having two expensive hobbies...

I wish it came in grey :(

Ive had the V280 and the V200. Its not that the amp is bad, just not my thing. Ive ran them both balanced and SE. With SMSL, Schiit, Holo Audio DACs. I know theres a couple guys in some of the headphone discords that agree with me on them been perhaps overly bass heavy

Hey man! I just wanted to give some input on the Vioelectric stuff. They are heavier in the bass and drown out vocals more than any other amp ive owned. I sold in favor of the Liquid Platinum. If you like heavier bass in your sound you can go for it, but i felt like it took a lot away from the...

So, with some more troubleshooting with Jussi, turns out the Ultrarendu is limiting my ability to do anything higher than dsd512 and 768kHz. So hooked the Spring 2 directly to my PC and still had no luck! So, he had me put it into a usb 3.0 port and it worked. Guess it just needed some more...

Whats your computer specs? I can only get 768kHz with i9 9900k and 2060 super on those settings

The Singxer def sounds off to me, but im not sure if its just how it is, or apart of the technical issues i seem to be having. And yes, 384 kHz works fine for me too. Its anything above that PCM rate that i start having problems. Have you had any luck above that sampling rate? What DAC are you...

Hey all! Just wanted to check if anyone using the SU-2 was using hqplayer also. Im having a problem with my SU-2 and Spring 2 R2R DAC. Through hqplayer, I cant play any PCM above 384kHz. The audio just comes out super distorted and static. Also, in DSD the audio channels seem as if they are...

Thank you! I sent Tim an email to see what he has to say about it. Its frustrating when things dont work how they're supposed to but hopefully I can get it figured out. I bought it specifically so i could do 768 kHz through hqplayer and i2s.

hey im using the Su-2 KTE. Its the newest one. Says in i2s it supports all sampling rates ( 768kHz, DSD 1024) Not sure what to do about the switches on the bottom. On the su6 do you have them setup a certain way?

Hey all! I know many of you are using a Singxer product fed with hdmi to the spring 2. For those of you who are doing that and using HQPlayer, I have a question! Whenever I set HQPlayer to output PCM, I get an insanely distorted sound and screeching and shrilling noise from my music played...

The Pendant and Glenn amps were the two tube amps I wa slooking at. It's a shame i havent been able to hear them as ive heard good about both. I could also keep the LP and look into tube rolling it.... at this point maybe that is the best option

Hey all, any tube amps that stand out as being better to you than the Liquid Platinum. My amp is the last part of my upgrade chain and trying to decide if I should stay with the Liquid Platinum or not

Does anyone have an explanation of the different settings on the DAC? in regard to NOS, OS, OS PCM, DSD, etc. Like if I have it set to NOS and then oversample in Roon, what is happening exactly with the NOS setting in the DAC? And if i switch it to OS mode, but im oversampling through ROON, what...

Hey John! Nice setup and welcome to the community. I feel you on the having champagne taste with beer money haha. Many people here will feel the same. Feel free to ask questions and explore! My DM's are always open if you have any questions and of course so are the forums. Cheers, Jonathan

Hey! So if you have powered speakers you wont have/need a preamp. The powered speakers have a DAC and Amplifier built in to the chassis of the speaker. My guess is youre trying to have some form of volume control that is physical/analog instead of digital. Look to get something like the...

Def get a used HD600. its your best bet for a neutral sound in that budget. Also take a look at the AKG K612 Pro, if youre looking to buy new! Cheers, Jonathan

What do you find wrong with your current setup? If you are buying a new headset for footsteps and competitive gaming, you wont find any benefit to changing. If your looking to change it up for music and such, then things can be done differently. Cheers, Jonathan

Are you sure the $230 USB cable isnt the bottleneck? :D, jk. Why do you want mqa and dsd? because you want the features or because you've heard them and can tell a difference/like them? im assuming you heard it on the directsream and like it. If youre sure you need an mqa/dsd capable dac with a...

First off, the translation is good and i understand you easy. Based on what you want i reccomend the Sennheiser hd800. Itll give you that space and seperation you want. I personally like the HD800S version. Dont overthink the hobby. Try to buy used so you can get your money back if you choose to...
