    New Unique Melody Triple Dynamic CIEM announced

      I agree on this. The wait on UM is ridiculous. If you seriously want some chinese stuff. LEAR is one with short waiting time. JHA, 1964 Ears, UE, Westone, etc. sound aside, anyone of them is better than UM/Rooth

    Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp

        the clicking is normal as discussed by many some time ago. Just set to a constant sample rate and you wont hear the clicking. also.. the relay will reset every 8 seconds or so. so yea.. make sure the relay is always active then you won't hear that click. if not it will click on everything...

    1964 Ears

        dude. polyclinic is not the place. in Singapore - digisound, the hearing cetre, or if you are rich go to a ENT doctor. These are the places to get ear impression done.   just complete the order form, put it with the ear imoression and ship it off to the usa. it's pretty much the same for...

    Two Germans for HD800?

    If it's good, it must be a Violectric. (no pun intended). Lehman is ok but I feel that the BCL is a thing of the past. As for Burson, I previously own a Burson 160ds and the USB froze up and died with Wasapi. I had to RMA for that.   I'm currently using a violectric v100 and it's great. Do...

    Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp

    Quote: I own a V100 with HD800 and I think there is some merit to your points. I experience some channel imbalance to the right sometimes and a power off/on seem to solve the issue. I don't know.. Persistently there seems also to be a slight shift to the right.. I can't really confirm. It...

    Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp

    My v200 click on every song with wasapi. This is normal due to the relay in the usb module not receiving any signal in 8sec or something. mine also click every time sample rate changes. My burson also clicks the same way You can verify this with fried reim.

    Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp

    from what i can see Violectric uses quite a number of Jamicon capacitor, whether it's in v100/v200/v800. but it seems that most people in the audio community aviods Jamicons caps. so why does violectric amp still sounds so great? i wonder!

    Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp

    oh! i've found a fix. i went to the device manager and uninstalled burson audio under the audio section. now my violectric shows up as "TE7022 Audio w/ SPDIF"   Is that what you guys are seeing on windows for your violectric dac? I believe it probably confused windows as both burson and...

    Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp

    Anyone knows why did my violectric usb dac shows up as Burson? i believe both uses TE7022 for the usb receiver. but did my previous burson screw up my computer? I've since 2 months ago removed burson from this system. My violectric works perfectly fine in foobar with wasapi even as i output it...

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    yes. wasapi in execlusive mode.. i've confirm with Alex in Burson this behaviour is normal. I think when it's in execlusive mode and so there is no upsampling or anything by windows  the frequency keep changing with the file and thus the tick tick noise. it's kinda irritating Anyway i'm...

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    I've checked with burson and realise that through WASAPI USB output, 24/96   When switching from 44khz to 96khz music, there is a machanical click sound produce by the amp due to a relay. interesting..

    NEW Burson HA-160DS Integrated DAC/Amp

    Don’t get me wrong. It is 2 entirely different issues. I’m working with the seller to fix the input selector problem. I’m just disappointed that I’m hit with a defective selector out of the box. And from Burson facebook page you can see that I'm not the only person facing quality issues..  ...
