Good to know. Thanks very much. Yeah I’m doing that now. Will do. Didn’t order the Bliss yet but will soon. Good to know. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing. So how do you have things connected? ..... XLR to Serene and SE to Bliss (or vice versa) or are you perhaps using an XLR switcher? I was trying to avoid using SE from my May KTE and my idea with using the Serene as a Pre was to set Serene to 0dB and just control volume via...

Is anyone using the Bliss and Serene together? I have a Serene in my 2Ch setup and I don't want to compromise on its ability as a preamp but I also want the best headphone amp so I am considering adding a Bliss and connecting it via the XLR1 out on my Serene preamp. Thoughts?

Hi there, I am using the gold-colored 1/8" to 1/4" adapter that came with the AKG 712 Pro headphones. Best, James

Hi everyone, it seems like we are all frustrated .. to put it mildly. I just wanted to mention that there's a thread here for providing bug reports and feedback on the changes: https://www.head-fi.org/f/threads/april-2017-changes-bug-reports-and-feedback-thread.845502/page-7 Load it up!

I have encountered a bunch of bugs simply trying to login and review my threads.. nothing more. After clicking Log In and entering my username and password on an iMac running OS X 10.11.6 and via Chrome Browser v57.0.2987.133 (64-bit) the site still showed Log In. When I clicked it nothing...

I sprang for these. I see you own a pair from 1968 which I am thinking might be from the same seller and to have a seller recommendation was very helpful .... plus your comments to Winders piqued my interest. Thank you.

  Nice plan.     Great!    Winders, mourip, thanks for your feedback on using an isolation transformer. This is something I'm going to have to try.

  I agree with what you are saying that bringing all the equipment to the same ground potential can outweigh the benefits of removing noise from other connected devices. That's why I mentioned that dedicated circuits should be of equal length if you go that route. There's a great article on...

  Very interesting. I can see this being effective for a computer based headphone listening environment utilizing DDC + DAC + Amp as long a the computer is left upstream of, or outside of, the isolation transformer and the DDC has a linear power supply and is in addition proving a galvanically...

USB DDC hunters,   Just follow this flow chart:   http://bryston.com/PDF/tutorials/Tutorial_BUC-1_Flow_Chart.pdf  

  You are most welcome!   Good point. The Oppo BDP-105 will convert SACD to PCM but only over HDMI.   My solution to that when I purchase the Yggdrasil will be to pre-convert the ripped dsf files to FLAC using JRiver Media Center and put those on the hard drive. One could alternatively...

  I sent off all my SACD's and DVD-Audio discs to Golden Ear Digital along with a hard drive and they sent back the fully tagged rips. I paid $5 for stereo only and $7.50 for both stereo and multichannel layers. I copied the rips to 3 different SSD drives (office headphone, work headphone as...
