    What is a good matching over the ear headphone for the JDS Element IV? I currently have the Hifiman HE560 and want to upgrade to an Arya Stealth, Arya Unveiled, ZMF Bokeh (closed), or....... Plus you seem to have tried the JDS E4 with the Modhouse Thungsten.... is that overkill?

    I will get a JDS Element IV dac/amp next week. Currently I have a Hifiman HE560 and like to upgrade to either a new Hifiman Arya Stealth V3 (€660) or a demo DCA Element Flow 1.1 (€800). I am a little sensitive to sharp highs and plan to use the EQ in the JDS Element IV. I will use the headphones...

    Can anyone advice me on the EQ/PEQ settings in the JDS Element IV for the Hifiman Arya Stealth headphone?

    Hey, remember you from the Flat Earther's forum ...... nice to see you enlighten all here with your pseudoscientific beliefs. Who needs facts, science and own real life experience to come to profound conculsions. You tell them boy! ;-) LOL

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    Can you connect the EF600's preouts to the SMSL VMV A1 (class A) power amplifier? The VMV A1 has a volume knob, so you can regulate volume, and as I understand the EF600 has no volume control on the outputs. Would it be possible to connect those two?

    For the Spring 3 KTE I would like to get tips for the best settings for up sampling in Audirvana on a Mac (mini M1).

    Just switched from a Audioquest Carbon USB to a Curious Cables USB, and the differences are very audible. Most noticeable is the much better bass control. Furthermore there is more "air" and holographic sound. Best cable upgrade so far. (Setup: Wharfedale Elysian 2, Musical Fidelity NU600...

    Hi Larry Man, Magna Hifi confirmed that S is the “hot/live” end. However they say that the S should go on the bottom of the Spring 3 KTE. I can always change the direction and listen, as I could clearly hear which way to place it in my second system Cayin CS-55a tube amp. But like I said, Magna...

    I recently replaced the Holo Red fuse with a SR Orange, after talking to Magna Hifi. They advised to take a slightly higher amperage fuse and didn’t mention any other fuses. If you look at photos of the inside, you don’t see other fuses either. R direction UP and S direction DOWN (see S and R...

    Just pull out the fuse holder next to the power cable connector. Put the SR Orange fuse in with the “S” marking at the bottom and the “R” marking at the top. Magna Hifi has confirmed that a4A SR orange fuse is fine. So I just put my 4A SR Orange fuse in the Spring 3 KTE. Even though the S3 KTE...

    Just go an answer from Magna Hifi, they state that 4A is still ok. According to them, many people in the hifi world put a higher rating fuse (read thicker) as they think this will improve the SQ just a little bit more. Since I have the 4A already, and I have a IFI Power Station (filter) and in...

    That is what the supplier in the Netherlands told me too, when I bought the Orange fuse for my Cayin CS-55A. Its original fuse is 3.15A (slow) and they recommended the 4A. Therefore I have the 4A laying around.
