Although I believe that you dont need an expensive 'audio' power cord to fully enjoy your fantastic amp but if you are planning to diy it, this might help: http://www.diyaudiostore.com/power/power.htm

You might want to check this. http://www.sonicartaudio.com/pricelist.htm Never tried them but they are Australian made and within your budget.

I believe it is a hybrid between dynalo and dynahi.

Thanks for explained it for us. I didn't really know how to explain it myself.

Hey mate, Just to let you know, it came with no manual. GS-1 does nothing if you're using the loop-out, it simply acts as passive bridged. Anyway, hopefully you like it as much as I do.

Dual mono allows you to use it as single ended.

Nope, it's part of the upgrades.

I've tried/had various amps, but my cans sound best with it (on my system of course). Having this balanced setting, GS-1 might be soon for sale (yes, GXDM is that good)!

New pictures added, enjoy!

JJ15k, Scott Nixon (of TubeDAC) can also offer USB-I2S for a bit more than $250 (usbchibi, it's best for you to email him). He can customise the output for you.

As far as I know, if it is less than $1000AUD there will be no tax. http://www.customs.gov.au/webdata/re...es/ACN0621.pdf Second paragraph

From SFT-Audio's website, the basic price (non-DM) is $799. I know you wanted it ...

New kid on the block: SFT-Audio GXDM.

... for my coming SFT-Audio GXDM!! SFT-Audio GXDM is basically a Gilmore XLR with additional dual mono option. For now that's all folks.

To answer all of your questions, it would be best if you drop Novas an email: novas.kao@gmail.com

Too bad, 1212m is the best one I have and certainly I'm not going to get more expensive one just to measure the DAC. Or perhaps, one of you willing to lend me one? :P Nonetheless, I'm very happy with the DAC.
