I think that there surely must be a time when we can just finally sit and wait quietly... where yelling is no longer going to gain anything. I seriously have a four year old who understands this better than several on this thread. I am very seriously 'invested' in this project. About as all-in...

Thanks for the VERY REAL reply isquirrel. i think it truly de estates the sub-industry to have pseudo science cloud what could be a very solid contribution to the hobby, art, and engineering of this "audiophile" world. I have no problem with giving into the "feel" of things. There is always an...

Thanks for the continued replies. Including Vinh from Dana cables. I think that my main concern about using adapters is this... Buying in completely to the benefits of making sure that a cable is everything you want... And the maker has minimized so many potentials for negative influences on...

Thanks for the input guys. Not familiar with Dana cables. Will research a bit. My current high end cable is terminated with audeze connectors. I really wanna be able to A/B test that with the new cables. Just for personal gratification. I do not believe myself to be in the league of most of u...

For those of you guys that are comparing the various headphones (abyss, focal, audeze) with various cables (dhc prion or complement/spore, superconductor)... How are you swapping the cables between headphones? Using adapters from dhc? Or are the cables completely dedicated to the cans? I ask...

I can say with great certainty that Cavalli already proved to be extremely adept at customer service in my eyes. I was having a minor problem and was getting trouble shooting ideas directly from Alex Cavalli. And I mean QUICK! They got my issue resolved and I am loving that amp... My Liquid...

What is that device in the pic? And can anyone speak to the question regarding the spore4 vs the superconductor hp cables? (Maybe no one has both get??)

I'm enjoying some fine ass ike and Tina Turner... followed by Paerish... followed by Fair to Midland.... just for a quick chance to experience what could be....   I gotta be clear... I'm here to enjoy the extreme beauty of what can be conveyed by my gear. Not just to own things others cannot...

I'm now another week or two into enjoying this Yggdrasil. I still remain a bit blown away by how my listening enjoyment jumped again with this added. I see that there is some commentary about one headphone vs another being better or worse with this DAC. I know I'm a noob in the headphone...

I'm super new to the headphone game... but I have had my Yggdrasil installed and powered up for about a week or two now... Didn't know what i was getting myself into.    I was previously using the built in Burr-Brown DAC in my Burson Conductor SL. Was very happy with that. But with the switch...

Well... isquirrel... apparently I need to think about visiting Australia... after the strong assumption that I would be invited... hahaha   In all seriousness... I am very interested in following in your footsteps apparently. May not be able to follow in every which way, but I do see a...

I wonder if isquirrel is friendly to Texans!! haha.    Super cool photos in the link you posted. Thanks for doing that.

NZtechfreak - I understand your first chain... but the second one looks like it's reducing the questyle to a preamp only. Using a separate power amp to drive the HE-6... or speakers. What am I missing?

That definitely helps... in two ways. It makes me realize that there isn't as much of a setup nightmare as I imagined. And it helps push me to get one even sooner!! haha   I was sent a gorgeous pic of a setup from a Woo customer. Had a DaVinci DAC feeding into the Woo 234's and then into some...

Gotcha Lars. I do understand the part about them being separate amps. What I can't get is how to dial in the volume of two separate amps. Is it controlled by one preamp? Or one source unit like a DAC? And you set the amps at what sounds balanced to you and then the master volume is in the device...
