revisit the topic in six months and save along the way. You'll know at that point.

Thanks to @walterboss mentioning GY!BE earlier today has helped me revisit them yet again.

one US unit left - https://headphones.com/products/zahl-hm1-reference-desktop-headphone-amplifier

I've used search both within the thread and Google with no success to answer the following - what is the length of the connecting cable between the mains adapter and the main unit? I recognize this is a option that can be defined by the user when ordering but for those who didn't/don't, what is...

I received this item today to help integrate my system a bit. I worked with Arek at Hattor.com to obtain an I/O selector. This has five inputs and four outputs, like his Big Preamp but without the volume control. Outputs are selectable from 1 through 4, with a fifth choice of all active at the...

One can buy a Shang Sr. without the HiFiMan amp.

Yes, it took that long. It's a long game purchase but I don't expect I'll ever replace it.

I ONLY waited 12 months for my Stellaris - S/N 24. I have no plans of ever selling it. I waited for 13 months for the following which just arrived today. Eksonic T2 S/N 23.

Day 406 and the wait is over. Serial number 23 has arrived.

Holo Bliss is good. CFA3 is good. Headamp's CFA3 is about to be released and is the one I'm looking forward to owning.

optimal for your DAC would be 48kX256 versus the 44.1 you have set. I also use full checkmark on adaptive rate. I don't think XLA at NX brings as much value as having it set at the 1x level. Try poly-sinc-gauss-hires-lp at Nx or even use the same as you have at 1x now (PSGL).

same results if you move away from xla to long for Nx?

In the same video, @GoldenSound noted he was a fan of the CA-1a and prior, on the Headphone tier list, he ranked them a 6 (on a 7 scale).

Bringing a post back from the dead, as Paste magazine posted their top 300 albums and this one caught my eye. Three spins in the last 24 hours and a purchase.

It has been mentioned that @SageM plans on sending them after the initial rush of orders has been fulfilled

If memory serves, they are working on a move to a different facility, so that might be the reason. I suggest contacting them directly to discuss. @zach915m

I don’t recall if Jriver takes exclusive control of a DAC. Please check to ensure Jriver client and server isn’t running on the machine the DAC is connected to.

Original poster, please clarify if you’re running Roon desktop. I don’t think Roon Remote runs on a PC

Have you installed the Holo May driver on the Roon remote machine?

I use this. https://www.westerndigital.com/products/accessories/sandisk-mobilemate-uhs-i-usb-3-0-microsd-reader-writer?sku=SDDR-B531-AN6NN

@Mr.Sneis provided timely communication throughout the process, the item described was the item received, and I received it in a timely manner. He even upgraded shipping to ensure timely arrival. I would work with him again.

concur, and in this order, with WE & Susvara combination

The data/statistics is the first step. The why and how it applies to you is the next step. I wasn’t blindly advocating the applying the results nor was any one reviewer a 1.0 correlation to my scores.

I did something like this for my own use with a limited population. I took the scores from the "GIANT headphone tier list" - and scored the headphones I've also owned or listened to for an extended period. I then calculated correlation scores with each of the three reviewers to assess which...
