Thanks tom for the invaluable kits that are close to effortless to build.

Thats a really nice DAC loserica!

  Finally got around to making a CIEM cable.

And a reminder to all building the torpedo! Ground the ALPS RK27 before soldering on the OTs! Had a small issue with it as my screw driver wasn't small enough, and had a tough time putting on the ground wire.

yeah! i realized you sent me 2 nuts short. I had to use 2 stand offs for the choke and improvise for the rest.

Just built the Torpedo in 6 hours, worked the first time I powered it up. Initial impressions are really good. Setup as follows. AL88XX optical out > AMB y1 DAC > DIY Belden, Switchcraft Mini to Neutrik Profi RCAs > Torpedo with Mogami Power cable/Cryoed Oyaide IEC plug/GE 5844s > HD600/1964...

sorry double post.

hi n_maher, is that a stepped attenuator? what brand is that? looks pretty neat.

Just a question. If I were to use 250VDC for the paraders caps. Will be enough?

sweet. i might order myself a torpedo soon.

would the torpedo drive a lcd-2 properly?

hi guys, i know the bijou is different in design, but i would like to ask if anyone has listened to both of them?

Quote: Canare quads are generally pretty good. I did my first cabling with it and it gave my SR60s some warmth that they needed. :)

sorry if i didnt put it clearly enough. i just wanted to warn you regarding solid core wires for headphone recabling because i recabled my KSC75s with the mundorf silver/gold wires (26awg) and they snap so often it wasnt viable to use them anymore.
