The JPS Labs: Abyss AB-1266 Impressions Thread
I would say yesterday was the first day i started to hear the headphones disappear. After some proper burn-in. Just the cleanest, smoothest most amazing music I've ever heard. My journey went from "oh crap, I think I prefer my Arya's" to "ok these sound good, amazing at times depending on the...- WafflesID

I tried that route. I got a chord TToby because it was cheaper than formula s + powerman. Ttoby is really fatiguing to me. The formula s was a significant improvement for me. Maybe ask @Dukei about a price to build a CFA3- WafflesID

That's what I'm doing. I'm not hearing anything coming out of my 1266 at full volume. Currently have an su-9 plugged in via xlr. With a mini PC (a MeLE fanless) feeding the su-9 via USB.- WafflesID

Anyhoo, $22 difference. I'll be upgrading from an SU-9, this should be interesting. I still can't believe the price. Seriously, how is an R2R with these kind of specs at this price range?- WafflesID

holy crap. So i let the amp and headphones play overnight and all day to get a little more burn-in time, and...good lord. I can't barely believe what i'm hearing. The headphones just disappear. And there is still a lot I can do to improve my setup. DAC, cables, power. and yet still can't...- WafflesID
