the player gains quality with a good external psu, i made one some days ago, a sigma 11. to my surprise not only the extended headphone modus gains the quality of the other modes but the whole signature is slightly more refined. the transitions are a tad nicer and the music gains stability...

i have the m17 since nearly two weeks and want to share some impressions. this year i was less active buying new gear, mainly because i’m very satisfied with the gear i own. main reason for buy this dap was the beefy output stage and my preference for ess dacs beside that i like r2r dacs often...

no, sorry didn't seen good inside pictures of the wa33.

i would not take that as a point to not hear/test and if you like the amp to buy a riviera aic-10. i buyed my pathos 2nd hand because i like hybrid desing, best of both worlds. i thrust these few people that reviewed the aic-10 over longer times, so i often asked myself to buy one. at the end...

i have a pathos inpol remix amp and it's my preferred amp with the susvara. the soundstage opens very nice with this amp and with a tube that matches your taste it's superb. i use siemens halske cca tubes. the pathos inpol remix is the 10watt speaker amp from pathos (1st version) and technical...

i used different usb-c to usb-c cable with my samsung s10e (and other android smartphone) with my dmp-z1, most cable work fine like this one...

lethality of the seasonal flue is 0.1 % and under for this coronavirus 2019-nCoV around 2.5-3% at the moment not as bad as sars (11%) but similar to the spanish flu: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu so take this serious anybody, but no need for panic, take care please...

yes sony with their special plugs:rolling_eyes: but i have a lot of power bricks in the attic, i throw away old gear/recyle but never their power bricks, hope i find the right one, had some sony laptops over the years. otherwhise thanks for the tip. i have some case left, for the power brick i...

thanks for the info, i done a quick measurement, the sony dont take more then 9 watt from the brick, so 25-30va is fine. project list is allready finished @ mouser, like also the vishey resistors. don't worry, build a lof of amps over the last 30 years, from 1-350 watt :-) i have some here...

Cool that you tested that. i use also the sigma 11 for my aries femto streamer and another network streamer, a nice psu. think i try this also, have a spare sigma 11 pcb in the attic. may i ask you which transformer you used, when i look at the sony powerbrick with 45va i should be a 20v/2.5a or...

being a big fan of class a amps and have build a lot of them over the last years i hoped for a high biased amp/dac modul when i saw the only singelended output from the e01 treaser - and the wish was fullfield :-) so i ordere the module asap. it's now in the house since around 2 weeks - well...

exact my feeling, sony tuned this dap/amp very nice so at the moment i dont change that even if know that kimber cable has some limitation. i like kimber wire for the smooth presentation and use it often for internal wireing of my diyamps but the neotech silver gold plated is simpy 2 steps...

nice work and very good cable choice, the neotech goldplated silver wire ist the best sounding wire i know/use. expensive but for gear that scales well the best choice, made a iem cable for my brother 2 weeks ago and he loves it. saldy the price jumps quite a lot the last months via hifi...

the diana phi has a quite linear bass down to deep bass. most of the totl iem and ciem i had/have have a small bass boost but often strugles with deep bass. in general my expierence is that iem have very often a boosted bass and are not as linear as headphones. it think this comes also due the...

i have also this p.. and r... things, nice if the brand has some history :-).
