    I like the HE2MK2 very much. Unfortunately, I hadn't own any AGD power amp before, so that I can't tell any difference between HE2MK2 and 2H.

    The LM219 is another great amp from China, but it sounds different with He1 and HE2MK2. For my ear the 219 has less tube sound than other tube amp. It is more like the Audio Research sound but with more energy and bass. Compare with HE2MK2, (use 219 as power amp driven by HE1), the 219 has a...

    Finally, my all HE AGD setup was completed by the end of June. Di20HE, R7HE2021, HE1, HE2MK2, LP-1HE MC. I sold my 10years old reference 1 and bought the R7he last Xmas, bought the Di 20he this March and ordered the LP 1, HE1, HE2MK2 at April. LP 1 and He1 came at 22 June, HE2MK2 arrived one...

    Waiting for your impressions. Anyway, I just ordered the LP1HE, HE1, HE2 MK2 today before the HE2 promotion ending. It will take at least 2 month leadtime now. I hope the full HE setup will be my game end, I have never stopped the upgrade during the last 10 years but my DAC was always Audio GD...

    Thanks for the reply FredA, I am using neotech nei 1001 and Audio Sensibility reference OCC silver XLR cables now, I am going to compare them with kingwa' ACSS cable first. Before I never think about ADG preamp and power amp or any other solid state setup, since I was afraid they would be too...

    Hi guys, now I am every every happy with the R7HE and DI20HE. This is the most significant improvement of SQ by gear upgrade. Now I am thinking sell my McIntosh C500t preamp and MC 501 mono blocks then buy the HE1, LP1HE phono and the new HE2 MK2. Is this a good idea? I am just keeping think...

    Finally, I ordered the R7HE yesterday. I hope l will stay with it for another 10 years. Kingwa suggest the R7HE over the HE7, unless some people are the loyalty 1704 fans. Can not wait.

    Thanks. I don't want to torture the ref 1 and myself anymore. It was a nightmare when I mod the ref 1 to HDMI i2s. It spent me a week and had more than 30 emails between me and Kingwa. Kingwa really is the best seller with great patient. I might get the new R7HE and ask Kingwa if he can do...

    I use an arualic Aries as the digital source. Unfortunately, the Aries only can convert DSD 64 to PCM. In my opinion, the DAC should have the most natural, detailed sound signature, honest to the original records. I can add some flavors to the music by different amplifier, cables, or tubes. I...

    In my honest opinion, I should choose the R7HE or R8HE+DI20HE, but it's hard to get ride of the 1704uk from my mind.:deadhorse:

    Hi everyone, I need some opinions to make the decision between new R8HE, R7HE and HE7(1704). I have had the reference 1 since 2009 . During the past 12 years, I upgraded my system from headphones to several levels of speakers, from integrated amp to McIntosh c500t + mc501s, but the reference 1...

    Audio-GD DI-20

    I have the same issue since I got the Di20. Spdif to i2s has no sound under 3.99, 4.07beta and new 4.076. works with noise under 3.93 and new 3.993. it works under 3.32 and 4.075 without issue. For the USB to i2s the 4.076 has the best sound in my system, the second is 3.993. Now, I start to...

    Audio-GD DI-20

    The device is the most wired one I ever used. Since my moded reference one has only i2s input so that I have to use both USB and spdif input on the Di 20, before only 3.32 make the spdif to i2s working which makes me upset. On Thursday night, I tried the 4.07 b3 first, spdif in i2s out to...

    Audio-GD DI-20

    Is there any other members experienced the issue that coax input to i2s output on 3.98 3.99 or 4.07 has no sound? I know another member experienced the same issue, but both of us use the HDMI moded reference 1 DAC. I don't know it is the firmware's problem or DAC's problem. Hope some more...

    I know there will be a solution since Kingwa do care his costumers and products. We had more than 30 emails back and forth while I had trouble with my my reference 1 i2s upgrade. I am still grateful for that.

    Audio-GD DI-20

    I just tried another cheaper HDMI Cable, no sound with 4.07. Kingwa doesn't think it because of the firmware, just told me to use 3.32 for now. But once I lused to the SQ of 4.07, I can't live with the 3.32 any more. I just want to know if there are more people experienced the same issue?

    Audio-GD DI-20

    It only works properly with 3.32. I tried 3.93 first time, it worked with Oppo 103, when I switched to Aries's coax, it had a broken sound with Pops. After 1 week burn in, I tried the 3.93 with Aries first, it sounded ok, then I switched to Oppo, the broken sound coming again. After that, it's...

    Audio-GD DI-20

    Hi everyone. Is there anybody using coax input to I2S output over 4.07 or 3.99 firmware? I got my 49/98 non HE three weeks ago. The coax to i2s has no sound from day one. I tried all firmware, only the 3.32 has decent sound, the 3.93 works once then only has cracked sound since I tried to...

    Audio GD Master-11(Combination from Master 7 and Master 9)

    I think that is not a defect. I wrote an email to ask about the bypass setting. Kingwa just simply replied there is no function of the bypass jumper on my machine. I wrote in Chinese, he replied in Chinese. So I don't think there was a misunderstanding between us. And there also has no any...

    Audio GD Master-11(Combination from Master 7 and Master 9)

    That was what Kingwa told me. And I also swapped the bypass jumper on and off with different setting, I couldn't notice any sound change. But all the other settings were working no matter the bypass jumper was on or off.(the NOS channel imbalance was still there.)  I used the meter to measure...
