I've been enjoying my Caldera lately and today I decided to revisit Atrium after a week. I got reminded why I bought the Atrium in the first place; it sounds so musical (analog-sounding) and easy to enjoy with wide range of genre. This time around I use the Universe Suede Pads and to me it...

I wouldn’t call it a custom order, but the dealer in my country allows customer to order it by type. In this case, the order is resin stabilized caldera with black/white color theme. Really loving how it turns out!

After countless hours lurking in the thread, today I am officially joining the Caldera owners club :smile_phones:. Couldn't be happier with how my Caldera looks! This one is called "Dusk"

Thank you for the info! I did press it when I was updating the firmware. I thought I need to press the button when plugging the USB blaster to the unit. Let this be a lesson for anyone else that is trying to upgrade the firmware Thank you so much for the help, my unit is working properly now...

I did try to reinstall the Amanero USB driver but it still doesn't work. Retried installing the update again but still nothing

I just updated my unit with the new firmware provided from AGD website. After following the guides posted in the thread, I have successfully updated the firmware (according to the message from the Quartus software). After finish updating the firmware, now my unit is not recognized by my...

I've been running my ha-6a exclusively with SE KT88 in the last few months and just recently got NOS GE 6L6GC. It very nicely complements the SE KT88; vocals are more lush and forward, highs are not as extended but it sounds organic, and most importantly it gives more of that "tubey" sound...

Do you have a recommendation for HiFi stand/rack? I'm currently looking for my desk setup as the ha-6a seems to take quite a lot of space and I'm planning to have another amp setup

Nevermind, I forgot to turn on the "Exclusive mode" in Tidal. Now Tidal has exclusive control over di24he and will setthe right format according to the file. Thank you for all the help!

Thanks for the info on burn in! I've installed the Amanero driver provided from the AGD website. I'm using Tidal for my streaming so it has a variety of format (changing from 16/24 bit and 44.1kHz/48kHz). Unlike my dac which will automatically change format according to the file that is being...

I just got my unit today and so far I'm impressed by how it improves the sound in my chain. Most notably the stage becomes wider and now much blacker background. This is based on my first listen, hopefully it will improve even further with more burn in. Btw, does anyone know how to properly...

Great seller! Quick to respond and very friendly. The goods arrived safely and as described. Highly recommend

Which connection are you using between your DDC and DAC? I've been told that I2S is usually the more superior connection, but does better HDMI cable affect the sound? Also, how do you think the Gaia compares to the Red?

I see that you are changing from a Matrix DAC to the R7HE3. Which Matrix DAC did you own? I am currently using a Matrix X-Sabre Pro and curious how it compares to the R7HE3 in terms of sound. It all started a few weeks ago when I was looking for DDC. First the Singxer SU-6 thread, then to...

I agree on the soundstage being nowhere near the HD800 in terms of size of the space (horizontally). I would describe the soundstage of U22 as closer to the listener and perfectly spherical with pinpoint accuracy on the depth. IMHO, U22 is a very revealing headphone that will sound true to your...
