    Yes, it's custom made by the Zhukov Sergei (LynxAudio) when he repaired and modded my WES... He very strongly recommended to not put amp case on PSU, because it's overheats (it's became better after mods, but still...), and the stock cable is very short, so he made me new custom one...

    Made global changes in placement of my rig... Couch has left the room, so audio rig can become much more "free" :)

    As my digital rig (includes solved "power question", "cables question" and "headphones question") IMO is "done", I decided to try to make analog rig as some alternative... So, rearranged my setup (fortunatelly my atacama racks is modular, so have a chance to do this rearrangement) to make all...

    Had been in bussiness trip for about 1.5 months, so decided that I want more high class "portable" rig (used DX100 with UM Miracle and Audez'e Sine)... so here is what I have now: Notebook (Win 10, Audirvana 3.5) -> (WireWorld Starlight 8 Type С - Type С 1 m. cable) -> Centrance HiFi M8-V2...

    If you had $5000 to spend on a DAC what would you buy?

    :thumbsup: Also, forgot to mention, the power question is very important for Debussy, I used Power Plant P5 for all my audio devices for some years, but about 2 years ago had a chance to try (and buy if I like it) ISOL-8 Power Station Twin Channel, and with it Debussy got on another level...

    I have dCS Debussy and don't have a slightest desire to change it, sounds really great with any MAC (I have MacMini with external custom linear PSU) computer via USB, It's probably "end game" DAC for me... I bought it used for about 7500$, but it was some years ago, I think now it can be found...

    Remixed my power cord configuration... spent about 5-6 hours on testing different combinations... But, it was deffinetely worth it, now system sounds much better :o2smile: So my current "power setup" looks like this: AC Outlet ► (Shunyata Research ZTron Python) ► ISOL-8 CUBE 3 ► (Shunyata...

    Sorry, but never heard any Chord at all... Not heard many top DACs actually, Debussy, Linn Akurate DS/0/D, Berkeley DAC Series 1/2, Accustic Arts DAC1 MkII, that is probably all...

    I love it. Probably only Berkeley DAC Series 2, but it's cheaper... I like Debussy better than Berkeley, it's more "my sound", clear, fast, neutral, very detailed and airy... BTW before Debussy I had Linn Akurate DS/0/D.

    A week ago (Abyss unfortunately is not mine, taken them for a listening for a few days from a friend...): Today replaced CUBE on the floor at the back of the small rack, it's more convinient that way:

    Aftermarket cables for the HE-6/ HE-500 etc.

    They only have russian on their site, that is probably the reason you were unable to google it... This is a page with catalog of MS Audio cables: http://msaudiolab.com/cables.html . This is a page of discription of hybrid cable for HE-series headphones: http://msaudiolab.com/cables/he_hybrid.html

    Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite

      Asked russian master (he has repaired and modded my WES some time ago) about using KT77 with WES, he said it's OK to use them, but look after their brightness and heat to be on the safe side... So have about 10 hours of burn-in (two evenings) for now on my Genalex Gold Lion KT77, they working...

    Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite

    Can I use KT77 tubes in WooAudio WES amp? If I can, then I can make it just by changing the tubes or some tuning had to be done to the amp? I already bought quad of KT77 and now I have a doubts and KT77 isn't in the WooAudio list of compatible tubes for...
