After listening 100+ hours on my v5i they burn in pretty well, all that lack of mids and highs camed out good, not too harsh, nice soft, the low end is not muffled anymore, it's a good sound, good separation, not great but good, now the low mids are not that much upfront, comes better with the...

After listening around 48h, they started to gain a bit more detail and separation, not so much muddiness in low area, mids a bit more clear but the highs will need more pressence, also around 3khz , but i like the low mid area, is getting punchy, but overall still is softer than my Jds Element...

I just received my v5i and install them. I will say now the sound it's a bit more detailed but comparing with my JDS Labs Element they are slighty under as detail , but just install them , i will give it some time to burn in. The sound is less warm but not focused on mids either, gain a bit...

I am using my AKG k712 with JDS LABS the Element, it was the 1st release which has an DAC and AMP in one, the AMP is great, for the DAC i will say is much better than what Asus Xonar STX II comes with, i am waiting for the Burson Opamps V5i to come , after changing them i will make an update...

Thanks Bcshchmerker4. I will go for vi5 instead. I will have a look how to proper install them.

Thank you for your answer! Are there any other op.amps that will not have issues with installation and they are similar as performance with burson? Someone around here was very happy with muses 01 and 02 over burson, but is hard to belive it. Maybe something that can fit inside and also use the...

Thank you all for you answers.From what i understand v6 are pretty new, i will probably wait a bit before making a purchase.

Hello, i have a dilema, not sure if i need to buy the H6 or not with the stx 2. I want to use 2 monitor spearks which will be connected to the rca ouput, but also i will need an ouput for my heapdphones amp. Should i go with a splitter, or i can configure on h6 to give me the same ouput as comes...

Sorry if i am not asking in the right place, what kind of v6 vivid should i buy for replacing the stock op amps that comes with asus xonar stx II? The dual ones ? And how many? 3? I am looking to put 2 tannoy 802 on the rca ouputs and maybe with a splitter to go in my headphones amp. I don,t...

 Hello everyone, i'm looking for a good wireless IEM monitor for live performance needed for vocal singer. So far i was thinking to go with sennheiser ew 300 g3 that comes with IE4 . The other option will be Shure PSM 300 or PSM 900. I want to know what will be the best option in 1000$ price...

If the preamp is a cheap one , you will damage the sound as well. I was thinking to add a small switcher there ,so i can switch between output and input, not sure if is gonna fit.

Oke, thanks for your help and for the picture, will be helpful for others also. 

Did someone manage to open and change the input for head amp to Dac output ? I found where are the screws and open it, but i can;t see any jumper on the back of the board. Maybe there is a jumper on the other side , that means to take out the knob and also is very hard to take the case out...

If you are looking for a neutral (flat) sound, Element is the perfect tool for it. I have the K712 headphone and due to a slight bass boost, i feel like has a lack on lows, not that much, just a little bit. But probably that my K712 are brand new, maybe after 50-60 more hours of burning, the...

It's complicated, but before doing the switching i will send an email to Jds labs and ask them to guide me how do it proper. Thanks for the fast answers and help.

Thanks for the help. Is too late to do it on factory, because i have it already. 

So if i didn;t request it, that means i dont have the jumper on board for switching the input to ouput ?

Did anyone find out if we can switch the rca input for the amp in ouput for Dac? From what i saw here , is a jumper on the board that can do that, or you need to configure it before purchasing ?

Hello everyone, my name is Mihai, i'm a Live Sound Engineer for about 8 years, new to hi-fi things, all the time listening to big PAs, owner to a AKG k712 and new owner to Jds Labs Element, i had many soundcards for multitrack purpouse, now i got stuck for my dekstop PC with Asus Essence Stx II...

Already received mine , it was too late when i saw that you can do that, can we change it by ourselves? I heard something that is a jumper on the board and we can do it ourselves?

Mine will get delivered on 6,  3 more days. I am so excited. Well i wanted DAC ouput too, but i didn't saw any feature for that on JDs website, i only could choose what type of plug do i need for power :(. Well i allready have a soundcard for desktop , so is not that a big deal. Thanks for...

Yup, same here , i just preorder it. Wanted to place an order for O2+Odac and i saw Element. I have Akg K712 headphones, hope the DAC from Element is the same as good as ODAC. I am waiting for reviews, tomorrow will be the first shippment.
