Bravo Audio V2 Review - Big Sound in a Small Package
Thanx Evshrug for some info abaout super simple amp. Strange, that simpler version of Bravo, Indeed, Little Bear etc. may sounds better. All of them has been based on Sijosae MHHA amplifier. Logically thinking the version 3 should represent better SQ. I know the tubes makes big...- Ponczomarinero

Mini Dac TDA1543 X 4 NOS
Yes I have extracted C8 and C9. It doesn't need to be shorten - just extract capacitors. It makes big difference. I am not sure better grounding means just connection chip grounds to the resistor. I think it must be some more, but maybe not. Anyone knows?- Ponczomarinero
