AX1600i. Nothing else. I almost threw the RM750 in the trash after the initial impressions with AX. It also bettered external LPSU -I used for my Audiophile cards. I don´t think any LPSU under1000dollars will better it, when you get your Audiophile PCIe card. Even higher JCAT Optimo Duo will...

Gamer computer is the most fun part in this hobby. The achievement of turning it into something new. That $424.00 USD if you spend it on Corsair AX1600i. Why? Because you need something that can take care of the transient response for the GPU. AX1600i will make the computer like new. I...

Computer, a normal PC?

Audio-gd sound is like - If you like it - You will probablly really like it. Hate it or love kinda experience. That is my impression. It is not an abstract different sound, but rather somewhere - adding what is missing to the sound, without the listener noticing it vs. without standing in the...

As a starte I assume the best possible buy from Audio-gd is the R28NOS. It is the best to get for the money if one is really interested in R2R and wants to go all in later.

I agree. Thanks to the black version, this congested look will be eliminated

The REGs does take up space so I am assuming R8MK3 at same size😍 - wait that one is already in new chassis. Hmm I am thinking one will match the 9MK3 but which one Nice combo! However I still believe a smaller formfactor/entrylevel AIO could be possible

@cpurdy After some testing with tweaking I found the best configuration so far is just to turn off the Powersaving/EEE. however I gain better performance from subnetting the respective network to /29 (255.255.255.248) - and all host/switches on static IP adresses and static ARP on the Router...

So you saying 3 different gateways on the same Router(1)? - I am going to see if this is possible, I never tried this.

Go all in while you are at it. Non-HE or HE models. I can verify DI20 is not the same(day and night) as DI20HE. I am assuming you will get much more love/analog velvety sound on MK3. That, you can not get from external power optimizations --- I am just saying it because I regret not...

Depends on the usage. I would never let the tap water run all day if I only used it for 1-3 hours, just enough for it to get cold or warm. The same with AGD. 1-2(2 hours MAX) hour is enough. The rest is waste of resources imo. Try it out for yourself. I found absolutely zero improvement in...

What is more interesting than Master 19 vs Master 9MK3 Is the placement of the PSU. Now the amp is "wider" but not as deep. Very very nice to see. I think Kingwa took notes here. However it opens up real big assumptions for the next releases. Or not? Master 19 Master 9mk3 Very close to...

I soldered the connectors. However I have sold it recently as I only used it for one DAC with 15V

Personally I believe without trying all the headamps, they are really good, only real "match problem" will be the performance of the DACs. I am happy owner of HE-9 LE, but that is mostly because I need the inputs as I have three 3 DACs as main and always have 2 dacs in testing on the 2 outputs...

@cpurdy That was a long run let me illustrate more detailed on the picture down below. The network has its own life/pulse of MAC and IP adresses resolution. With intervals ARP is broadcasted from hosts or Routers requests. The idea is first to isolate devices so this broadcast/multicast can be...
