I am selling a Chord DAVE with Sean Jacobs ARC6 DC4 power supply and Sean Jacobs capacitor board already installed. I prefer to sell this as a package deal. If you want to make an offer on the power supply only, I will listen but it will need to be a serious offer. Both DAVE and ARC6 are black...

This is the headphone, non-APEX version of the dCS Bartok in excellent condition. I bought this from an authorized dealer in 2021. It has been updated to the latest firmware. The listing price includes any PayPal fees (I will eat the fee) and includes shipping via UPS or FedEx. That means you...

Good suggestion!

I don't post very often on head-fi but have recently been using some new cables in a headphone system that have elevated my system's performance to a new level of performance. Specifically, I've been using a power cord on my dCS Bartok DAC/headphone amp and a DC power cable with an Uptone...

I'd like to chime in with some thoughts on on PGGB-256, the latest and greatest version of this program. Folks should know this is more than your standard "update." It is really a profound change in what is possible with off-line "remastering." I just posted the following review on...

Fontainedh was a great buyer and timely communicator. Would definitely do business with him again.

I hope you received the headphones. If so, you may be receiving an email from PayPal asking whether you in fact received them. If you can respond positively, then PayPal should release the hold they put on your payment. If you have not received the headphones, please let PayPal know when you do...

Hi David-- I shipped these via USPS Priority Mail. Tracking # 9405511206207450552586 Probably about three days. Enjoy! Jon

I see your payment. For some reason, PayPal has put the payment "on hold." It will continue to be "on hold" until Dec 21 unless they receive confirmation that you received the goods (even then, I don't have total confidence in PayPal). I will go ahead and ship to you and provide a tracking...

Very gently used Nighthawk Carbon semi-open back headphones with original padded case and product literature. Very little wear on pads and headband. Leather and suede pads in excellent condition. OEM thick cable included. If you pay my asking price, I will cover any PayPal fees and shipping in...

This is certainly a good question that can only be answered by individual listeners making comparisons. I can add two points that may be worth thinking about. First, I own a dCS Bartok with headphone amp that now retails for $19,950 USD. I use it in a headphone system in a vacation home...

Good question. I have listened to both headphones and speakers. Headphones were HiFiMan HE1000 connected via WyWires Platinum cable directly to DAVE. Source material, served up by my Taiko Extreme, was the same. IMO, the ARC6 benefits headphone listening just as much as it benefits speaker-based...

For two weeks now, I have been listening to a Sean Jacobs ARC6 DC4 power supply hooked up to my Chord DAVE. It replaced a Sean Jacobs DC3, so I had already modified my DAVE to remove the stock SMPS. I bought the ARC6 used; a new one with the proper connections to a DAVE will cost you $10,000...

Yes, sold long ago.
