I recently purchased a Lite DAC-AH and enjoy the sound except on loud complex passages where it seems to distort very audibly. I've read elsewhere in this forum that the recent Lite DAC-AHs (maybe all of them) have 6V going to the TDA1543s instead of 8V as shown in the schematic and on the PC...

I recently purchased a Toshiba 4900 for only $52 just to try DVD-Audio. I also purchased 2 DVD-A disks, Chicago and Neil Young (Harvest). I was really enjoying the sound, but then I noticed a popping sound on the right channel when playing the Chicago disk. This is very noticable during quieter...

I am interested in doing a cheap modification to my Philips 963SA player. I've heard that upgrading the power supply capacitors is very effective. Can someone tell me which capacitors to upgrade, or preferably tell me where I might find a schematic.

I am trying to decide whether to dive into SACD or DVD Audio or both, and I have stumbled on an issue that seems to strongly favor DVA Audio for multichannel operation -- bass management. I have read on several forums that for bass management and delay adjustment the DSD SACD data stream is...

The supplied headphones are connected to the wired remote with a unique connector. Is there an adaptor I can use to connect a standard 1/8" headphone plug to the remote? For...

I am considering buying the Phillips 963SA player for use with my headphone setup and my home theatre system. I would like to know some details about it's bass management for multi-channel SACD (and maybe stereo SACD). What is the crossover frequency? Is it adjustable? Is there bass management...

I am modifying my MG Head amp, and would like to know where to buy an ALPS non-stepped 100K stereo pot. The problem is it has to be small (about 18mmX18mm). Also, I would like to know where to buy fast recovery diodes (FREDs).

It seems that many think that for vocals, the best amp for HD-600s is the XCANSV2, even when compared to Melos SHA-1 and MG Head. Any dissenting opinions?

I have ordered the new ASL MG Head OTL amp and have a few comments/questions for Joe Lau at ASL that I think may be of interest to others. I understand that with this new amp the OTL output is connected directly to the plate of the output tube through an electrolytic capacitor which has about...
