I have been enjoying high quality audio with a black background with my PC Audio gear per signature below for over a year, until the last several weeks when an annoying low level hiss has become evident during music playback. It is especially noticeable in quiet passages of classical piano...

I've not seen much written about this DAC/AMP here or on Head-Fi, but I wanted a portable to stack with my DAP and to run balanced output to my 64 Audio A6, that would also serve me well as a USB DAC for PC. I took a leap of faith on this unit, bought from Moon Audio, and thus far pleasantly...

I've read on this and other forums that the dac drivers for PC / Windows are unsigned and won't load automatically after a reboot. Some have commented that the PC <--> DAC downsamples to 16 bit even if source material is higher def. I'm not sure what is fact versus fiction and having just...

I appreciate the difference a high quality interconnect can make and am researching options for an upgraded mini-mini for my portable headphone amp. and player. However, my player is a Treo 755p with a phone-styled 2.5mm plug, so the 3.5 mini - mini's require an additional adapter to my Treo...
