Singxer SA-1 / Balanced Amplifier Fully Discrete Class A - beyond THX 888 ?!
My michi m8s don't seem to suffer from being powered on and off by the kids in the lounge when they want to watch Netflix or something and I think they are class AB. As raif71 said nothing to worry about, I was sort of not being too anal about the burn in. In fact I might be wrong /alone on...- rjacko01

mine has been on for a few years not really noticing any difference these days although would have to turn it off to hear, which would interrupt the burn in- rjacko01

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
Windows to SMSL results in a non bit perfect result, it just reports what is being sent from the PC, can't see that changing, but as reported, android base on dedicated streamers can get round it- rjacko01

Am I missing something, the eversolo sends out different stuff to the SMSL all the time, but trying another Dac gives the same results, all a million miles away from windows interface- rjacko01

I'm a quiet listener, too, did buy a thingy that you can hook up to amps, never used it though, but think the 1080w into 8ohms from the michis might be a bit much and will stick with the Singxer. Great to hear about options that you can do.- rjacko01

Must be a good lot of fun having so many amps to swap in and out of a system. I bet you can really tell when something works and when it doesn't. I think as the Singxer is the only one I have known, I'm certainly not qualified to know how good it is, but it performs it's job for me, so no...- rjacko01

Really good to know DeckHifi, seems like a good time for some experiments, need to get some rca cables but won't be going down the major money route, can't afford it for one, but very keen to see if mixing balanced with SE yields better results- rjacko01

Just going back over the later posts, really interesting about the balanced v SE. I have the Michi M8s in the cinema room and not thought about trying them anything other than XLR, but might be worth a go based on what people are saying- rjacko01

I actually have a mojo, used to use it when doing train journeys. Would that be a a better fit than that smsl? Started getting into this when they fired up a dragonfly dac I think it was, and then the chord mojo, and I bought the mojo on the spot, just sounded so much better, even with my old...- rjacko01

I don't think you will be disappointed with your purchase, do think some would want more power driving the HE 6SE, do use it more as as pre, driving the AE1 actives.- rjacko01

The Singxer drives my Hifiman HE6 no problem,(balanced) so I think there is something else going on too. I don't blast it though, some others might want for a bit more- rjacko01

coming out of the Eversolo USB into the SMSL su-9 the Amazon App in the Eversolo matches the bitrate on the front of the, or visa versa I guess SMSL, dropping from 192 on Amazon Music to BBC Sounds 6 Music reports the lo res stream correctly & is actually as you would expect quite jarring.

yes I guess you are right about the 30 on a fuse as oppose to 800 on a new amp, think my ears are probably too old to benefit from a 30 upgrade which not saying would not make a difference, just that a whole new amp would probably mean I notice the change. I am sure many on here would tell the...- rjacko01

The fvuse expressed here are subjective lest anyone like myself rush out and purchase the ultra transparent chord fvuse that elimates even the headphone amp itself, leaving you to enjoy a noise floor so low that even with music playing there is a Depeche mode moment of 'enjoy the slience'.

can certainly recommend it as a headphone amp, but not too much experience in that area, just have the chord mojo for mobile travelling with the Shure 1540's but knew I needed something a bit stronger to drive the HifiMan. I know there has been discussion about when it transitions from pure...- rjacko01

If you have something like the ATC SCM50, might want to look for something more in line. That being said did try it with my B&W 802's in the cinema room just out of interest and it didn't disappoint- rjacko01

I'm using it as a preamp for my AE1 Active's PC desktop set up when not on my he6se and it works beautifully, nice and clean, fed from SMSL SU-9. Would highly recommend- rjacko01
