Quote: Wouldn't be the first time.  Sometimes I get blamed just for walking in the room! :)   My previous setup was a Cowon G3 or my Epic 4G (wolfson) driving my se425's directly.  Aside from my home stereo (an older Technics) I have had no previous amp (I are an amp newb.) I want to...

Quote: Well now I feel like a total *****. :(  Sorry thor.

Quote: Oh man, this is the best thing ever!  I don't know how you could wait for one, you ordered with rocketmail 2 hour shipping right?!?!!! I'd say its about Pi to E times a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. It will make your ears bleed awesomesauce, and your cochlea will grow unicorn horns...

Quote: I am going to make an attempt to some sort of review tonight.  I don't have another amp to compare to (aside from my Technics receiver) so take it with a grain of salt. Thus far, listening with my Shure SE425's I have found a preference of louder gain while keeping the volume...

I'm already triple booked for Sat. so I'll have to hold off until the next one.  Its a shame, I wanted to show off my new JDSLabs C5 too!  I'll keep Echo in mind if everything falls through though.  An impressive group so far!  

With my SE425 IEM's: I've turned up the C5 in both gain modes w/ and w/o bassboost on and the thing is SILENT.  Which is nice.  I have also tried the same test while charging, and have been listening while charging.  No noise from the charging circuit that I can tell at all.  The USB cable does...

Some crummy phone photos of my new-current portable. Epic4G (Wolfson/VooDoo audio) <-> JDSLabs C5 <-> SE425's It gets me through the work day nicely.      

Some photos with my C5 after finally getting home.  This little thing is a beast.  I picked up a 10cm FiiO cable with the C5 using my Epic4G (Wolfson w/ voodoo) for a source.  The stack fits in my shirt pocket great, tomorrow around work I am trying pants front.  I don't have another amp to...

I tried to take photos of my red C5, but have not been able to remove my phone from the thing since i started listening.  I assume the battery will die sometime so i'll try once I am charging it. The volume control so far is good.  I haven't thought it lacking in volumes between steps and the...

Quote: Red is definitely faster!  Miceblue has his already! :)  Mine is sitting at home waiting for me.  Guess who is clocking out early today?    /me points at himself

Quote: The red is more likely to get you tickets, where i hear the slate is rock-solid.  The gray is pretty neutral on things, though it was only implied by gray...

Quote: How do you like those SE215LE's?  I have the SE425's and was hoping they would "specialimatize" that line as well.

Quote: Its pretty neat, the: EEPROM.read(0) and EEPROM.write(0, attenuation) (also 1 / gain) reads and writes from, well, the eeprom.  So far only location 0 and 1 are used, which leaves 510 more bytes for use (thank you John for pointing me at the ATmega168A spec.) Yep, you are...

Quote: The code actually checks to see if the current volume and gain values in memory are the same as the currently in use values (checks every 2 seconds), and if they are not, it stores the current value into memory.  You should have the last used value resume upon powering up the amp...
