Hi folks.  I am interested in getting an iPod Touch 6G 128GB and using it as a digital transport. I have googled around and it seems that an iPad or iPhone can be used simply by getting the standard Apple Lightning to USB Camera adapter. However, I haven't had any luck locating a clear and...

Hi folks. I have a question for either George or Tyll. Can we have the user manuals for the Balanced Ultra Amp and Balanced Ultra DAC posted to their respective product pages and the HR Amp manuals page when they are ready? Oh, and a second question comes to mind: Are the Balanced Ultras both...

Hi folks. My order has finally been shipped! Audio nervana approaches. Fingers crossed for Tuesday next week. However, I have a question. Could someone who has the DPS tell me does it come with a US-terminated power cord or do you connect to the wall outlet via an IEC cable like the Astrodyne...

Hi everyone. This thread has been a bit quiet. Perhaps my news will liven it up a little. I finally made a decision and did the deed. Today, I placed an order for a Desktop amp with Max amp and dac modules, stepped attenuator and DPS. HD650's are also coming. So now, it's down to waiting. I'm...

Hi. It seems there is a bit of confusion around the question of which power supply will suffice for the HeadRoom Desktop line of amplifiers. So, I gave HeadRoom a call and had a chat with one of there sales reps. i have taken the recommendations that HeadRoom makes concerning which power supply...

Hi. I haven't an EMU so can't give you any advice concerning how it compares with the Bithead. It is certain however that the EMU sports more features than the Bithead, but then it is a sound card, not a portable dac/amp. One thing worth double-checking on is if the EMU can run independently...

Quote: Originally Posted by feifan <snip> Yeah, they're right next to each other. That's one of the first things I futzed with -- the PS connections. I found that the DTB raised the heat level of the DPS to a significant degree. When I switched in the Astrodyne, the DTB seemed to...
