Anyone tried the D7 with the K701? I know it would be asking a LOT from such a small package but +/- 5v of voltage swing is pretty good...
Silver looks nicer to me
Haha it really depends on your preference as well as the color of your other gears. Both colors look fantastic but I got the black one.
A red one will look cool though. Best suited for the 666 occasion.
To make your choice "easier", I ordered a black one. Tough call!
I think we have a winner - ha!
I also went with black
I take the black one also, recently I much enjoyed the D7 with a LD MKIII
Thanks for the input guys! I agree, a RED one would be awesome. Maybe I'll re-paint it once it comes... I got the black one though.
I just got a package in the mail this afternoon - black D7. It's built quite nicely. It does seem to have a bit brighter of a presentation than my uDac-2 - possibly more detail. It's really too early to tell. It didn't require the driver download (netbook with XP), so it may have somehow recognized it as my Centrance Axeport (not a computer expert.) It says "XMOS USB 2.0 Audio" at the bottom of the volume control window, but also says "Centrance Playback Mixer" at the top. Not sure if I should install the iBasso driver at this point...maybe I will install the iBasso driver on my Windows 7 machine to see what comes out of it.
Sounds pretty good, but need time to acclimate...
You know what they say about going with black...
You didn't go with silver.
Please give it time to burn in. There are just too many capacitors in the D7. The sound will become much better after 100hours (and more) of use. No brightness and the sound will become smoother and more open.
I went with black for my previous DAC/amp... I guess that's why I couldn't go back to silver...
Just popped for one too, wanted something to use with my Macbook Air, this will fit the bill perfectly.
I ordered one on Friday but now I can't remember what color I ordered. I guess it'll be a nice suirprise.
