DENON DA-10 DSD - New portable DAC/Headphone AMP
Does the DAC get bypassed when using the AUX input? Is the only way to engage the DAC is to utilize the USB/DAC connection? I was hoping to pair this with the Denon D600 and my Samsung Note 5.- B00MERS00NER

For Sale/Trade Forums
Is it just me or are there way too many "Wanted" threads in the "For Sale/Trade" forums? Look at the number of wanted items in the sale/trade threads, especially the headphones. I think a "Wanted" forum should be created. I'm not knockin anyone that posts wanted threads. Its a pain in the arse...- B00MERS00NER

The Audio-gd Compass (Was: Designing an alternative to the Zero DAC/amp)
Yeah, that staying up til 5am listening to just one more song, reminds me of staying for just one more beer. I'm glad to know that it isn't just me. I am really impressed with how much the sound has changed in the compass, with the sun/neutral in the last few weeks. I guess the term "opens up"...- B00MERS00NER

Help wanted with Cmoy
If you don't my chiming in here... When you reflow those joints, use plenty of flux - it will help the solder flow and get better coverage. Also you will want to be careful when you solder around those SS components, too much heat can kill them. You also may want to take a look at those...- B00MERS00NER

Testing solder joints
SiBurning mentioned some very good points. The tricky thing about cold solder joints and testing them is that testing for resistance and continuity checks with a multimeter aren't fool proof. The problem with cold solder joints is that in one position the joint will test ok, but if the board is...- B00MERS00NER

The Audio-gd Compass (Was: Designing an alternative to the Zero DAC/amp)
Got almost 100hrs on the sun in neutral mode and it seems the treble has backed off a bit and that everything isn't quite as forward as it was, seems to be more balanced. Still dynamic and I cranked the gain down and at the moment I prefer the gain on high. Listening to Patricia Barber and the...- B00MERS00NER
