I see many mentioning ASIO. During my direct comparison I found WASAPI substantially better with the MM02. Agree, or not? Comments..?

Ektalog - That's exactly why you didn't hear from me for awhile.. I did many mods to my amp, several caps, opamp etc. So, I as well need to get used to the sound so that I may establish a base for comparison. In addition my listening room has recently been changed and will change again very...

Ektalog - How is the elna working out? Any final conclusions or continued upgrades?  

Ektalog- Have you chosen a replacement for the WIMA 1.0uF cap? Any thoughts on the higher value uF Pannys? I originally bought larger value caps for these two positions but they all wouldn't fit (b/c of the 470's..)..   Maybe we could even locate which position makes the largest...

mfaughn - Not that I remember.. Maybe someone else can help you out with this. From what I recall, and its been awhile, I was able to install the really old drivers (pre-precision mode etc.) on up to the newest drivers with no issues at all. I remember this because I had AMD compatibility issues...

mfaughn -   You can send him this link:   http://www.musiland.com.cn/downloads/drivers/   That has many different versions of the drivers. I've experienced similar issues. He can install any that have -M1CyMon- in the file name.. I would suggest to try an earlier one then one of the...

Interference is something that I have noticed the MM02 is susceptible to as well. I have it positioned as far away as possible from any other equipment. It definitely calmed down some of the scratchy highs but I feel I can still do more in regards to this. I run my computer off of a large...

MHDT Paradisea+ is compatible with an S3 via OTG... Add it to the list!

Excellent that you got the stock WIMA back in there..   and good to hear that you observed positive gains with added time. Any final conclusions?  I haven't had much time for comparisons but this DAC does work very well as a transport. It greatly improved the sound of my NOS MHDT Paradisea+...

Ektalog - I used:   Elna Silmic II 4x 16V/10uF 2x 50V/4.7uF (stock were 100V) 1x 16V/47uF Panasonic FM Series 5x 16V/470uF 2x 6.3V/1000uF Mundorf MKP 400V/1uF 630V/0.1uF     Your finds are interesting for sure. I would like to hear your impressions after ~300 hours. I...

Ektalog - I'm definitely interested in hearing your opinion on the individual changes. As mentioned previously my situation required that I do all of the mods at once.   I'm still currently using the MM02 but am waiting on the arrival of an MHDT Paradisea+.. It should then make for an...

I don't find the headphone amp that impressive. I have used it with Grado 225s/RS1s. WAY too bright for me. Could be synergy.. Then again its too bright with my JMR Duets as well. Considering that, I figured I would play around to decrease the edge a bit.. I have completed all of the upgrades...

From what I've quickly googled 1 is for med/high resistance, 2 is low.

Just an update: the latest drivers cleaned up a vast majority of the ticking and popping I was experiencing on high sample rate tracks (though not all of them). Another driver release as progressive as this one and I should soon be trouble free...   On another note... I was reading how...

For me it manifests as a randomly consistent crackle or popping noise only when attempting to play 96 or 192. This occurs on all driver editions past and present in both ASIO and WASAPI. Otherwise it sounds great. Also, it runs perfectly on my HP Intel laptop. 

Does anyone know if the Monitor 03 suffers from the same AMD compatibility issues as the 02?
