This is listed as traded. ?? Or is it for sale? If so did you do the upgrade to KGGG or did Kevin Gilmore or Spritzer? How does it function? What are you sellng it? Thanks. David

Yes. On the Moon Audio page, it lists the external power supply option for $49. It indicates the 'X-SPDIF 2 has a power supply interface, you can add an external linear power supply to it. It will disconnect the USB bus power automatically when you connect it to an external power, then the...

Thanks. Since I'm just using Mhdt products and don't expect to go beyond that 'IIS/html input' shouldn't really be an issue should it? Do you run and do you think I need to get the outboard power supply ? Thanks again for the help. David

Now I find it hard to think of using my original Orchid and Havana with USB straight. Suggestions for other reasonable DDC?

I had never been suspect of Mhdt's USB input but I've been enlightened. On Dawn Upshaw's recording of Debussy songs the edges of her notes are as clear as before but not 'etched'. There is an increased delicacy to her voice but no lack of resolution. On a recording of Irving Fine's Notturno...

Gustard U16 arrived today. Running USB into it and outputting to 69SE via Illuminati BNC and Coax to original. Also running fibre optic in 69SE from my Brennan B2. Fuses arrived but I haven't installed them yet. Juin said he designed 'new and unique DEM circuits' that should sound very detailed...

After eliminating the powered USB hub I was quite happy with the sound but have ordered a Gustard U16 as someone had suggested. I also have an Acme fuse ordered.

I took the plunge and picked up one of the Orchid 69SE’s with the less expensive S1 chips. Initial impressions of a glassy sound and ever so slightly reduced output are mostly gone after some burnin. The specs do indicate a lower voltage output for the 69SE than the original: 2.6 volts vs 3...

I see the AD1856 listed a DAC. Did you replace her original DAC chips with the AD1856 and which model of chip? Feedback? Thanks.

Thanks. I have tried different tubes and am currently running a Western Electric WA396a in both. I'm not necessarily looking to upgrade per se. I renovated a studio/office and am setting up a system with Falcon LS 3/5a speakers and AKG K-501 and Stax 404 headphones. I'm sure I will be pursuing...

Has no one here yet heard the Oolong? I have a Havana and an older Orchid. I'm looking to possibly pick up another DAC and had heard good things about the Denafrips Aries II and Pontus II but it sounds like people here have tried them and come back to Mhdt. I actually like the new cabinet...

Can you compare it to the MHDT Havana and the Mytek Brooklyn (original), my current DACs? Thanks. David

Thanks again for a great review. I bought my Havana from you many years ago and still love it. Looking to have it move over to my laptop/Stax 404/ Stax SRM-T1 set up and replace it as front end in Harbeth M30.1 system. Confused by all the Mhdt options but doing my due diligence with your help

Any chance you have a perspective on how these compare to the AKG K-501 for classical music. Thanks. David
