here from google translate. 15v to 16v and nikon FW series gold capacitor.

Argh... I am making another MisterTao order soon, looks like..... (great forwarding service for Taobao for us western folk)

the player sounds so amazing that I have to hear any improvements from 16V or the gold caps.

I can understand why some would be suspicious of it being hype but cmon.... you got several people telling you it makes $100 DAPs sound like trash. If any are skeptical it's only a $30 entry fee tops

@nick n , I am definitely paying attention to changes as it burns in, and have another walnut already on the way I'll try to a/b compare with to see if any noticeable differences.

We just barely broke 3 pages and I made this thread less than 20 hours ago. And we already have 2 posters who joined today just for this thread. That is an awesome feeling. The call of the Walnut can not be resisted!

Please stick around and don't forget to share your impressions when all you new posters get your Walnuts!

uh oh I need to wait and order some more of those then also.
haha
thanks for that update
"two drill" is actually meaning what number of units?

google translate can be wrong. maybe two drill mean double production.

So I wonder when the new V2 was made, do they have serial numbers?
Also, could these be modded for a balanced PO since the OpAmp is dual-mono?

nick n · Dec 8, 2016 at 10:58 PM

^ ahhh yes could be.

Off for a longwalk, and it's below zero celcius out. This match is hard to resist.
LME49860NA opamp in there now

Will try to sit back and watch the thread from now on.
There should be plenty of impressions coming in soon.

If you can install your own 3 pole jacks you could absolutely mod it for balanced output

absolutely possible!

Mine has no serial number, not sure about anybody else's?

Mine doesnt have serial number. Maybe only the v1.1 and v1.2 have it

Awesome, a fellow earbud fan! There is a great earbud thread here -> http://www.head-fi.org/t/441400/earbuds-round-up/15075

Be sure to share some thoughts about your Walnut sound after you've had it for a while. we need more impressions and more pictures!

I'll add one more quick thing here.
Sure from the outside upon first read this might be construed as hype, but when it is actually on your ears and you are hearing the thing I feel it is simply a fair overall assessment of it.

I think they all have the same serial #'s

= A+++++++++++++++++++++

Let me just follow this up with one statement.

The $600 Mojo? I could not be bothered to replace my MP3 with FLAC despite it making MP3 sound bad and lossless like heaven.

The $25 Walnut? I am ripping CD's like it's June 1999.

Thomas De Brito · Dec 8, 2016 at 11:22 PM

It only reads mp3 and wav? I am still excited for mine to arrive

vapman bro would really really appreciate your thoughts on Zishan vs Walnut with respect to sound quality and signature.
