    Chord Electronics Qutest DAC - Official Thread

    the UltraCap supplied wallwort is rubish... feed it with a decent power supply... noise spreads trough the ground plane... the alternating circuit that switches caps banks every few seconds must have a common ground linking both banks... so, we are talking about the power supply of the power...

    What's an example of a "good DAC"?

    To me they do not sound the same at all… some people may argue that there is no difference, but… as I always say “there is no difference and I HEAR no difference, are two totally different things”… if someone can hear the difference someone else is not hearing and CAN point that difference in a...

    Best music player for Android? (Samsung GSII)

      One of our readers owns a pair of STAX Earspeakers with a STAX SRD4 adaptor . Due to overload a pair of resistors in the SRD4 burned up, so badly that it is impossible to determine their value. Would any one be so kind to, ideally, send us the schematics of the SDR4 adaptor so a repair...

    I have a problem with a SRD-4 adapter: 2 resistor blown up, so badly that there is no way to know their value. Any positive information about this? (pictures of the damaged zone in my photo album) Thanks a lot :)
