Official New York Spring Meet Saturday June 11 2016
Hey everyone, I'll have @avitron142's 3 DUNU IEM samples at the meet: Dk-2002, DK-3001, and DK-4001. The first is in production and the later two are prototypes. They'll be set up with my surface pro, GO 450, and leckerton. I'll eventually pack my setup up so that I can walk around but you can...- thegunner100

Ibasso Dx90 Audio tuning issue 1to 90 volume could not hear able at all.
I'm really not sure what the problem is. The OP has PM'd me, asking the same thing, and keeps insisting on using 0-90 volume on low gain while it's possible for the dx90 to go up to 255 volume with THREE GAIN SETTINGS. Obviously it's going to be inaudible if you only use the lowest portions of...- thegunner100

Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)
I had the parasound d/ac-1100, which could have been "upgraded" to the pcm1704. But based on my experience with the M7, I did not go for it. The parasound with a cheap usb/spdif converter already sounded better than the M7 to my ears. But YMMV. Maybe you'll like the thicker, more syrupy...- thegunner100

Stick with the PCM63s. 1704 is a downgrade.- thegunner100

Official New York Spring Meet Sat May 2nd 2015
It depends on the what transport is being used. I'm bringing my surface pro, which only has one USB output for my dac. It uses a microSD card though, which people can use their own music for. I have my own music too, but I don't know if it'll be up to everyone's tastes. Bringing a USB stick...- thegunner100

No ZD here, but I will be hosting Maxx's pimped out/modded Little Dot MK VIII SE as well as a friend's modded PM-2s. I recommend bringing music in microsd format if you're visiting my table!- thegunner100

Why not just get a cheaper schiit stack like the modi 2uber and magni 2 uber? They'll work well for your momentums and gives you leftover money to spend on the hd600s/650s. You can find a pair of used hd600s for about $220 nowadays, and they scale up like crazy. Or just get a GO 450, which you...- thegunner100

Head-fi meets aren't the greatest places to listen to dac differences. Were you using your own music, amp, and headphones? If not, then the comparison isn't truly valid. Like Maxx said, the better your upstream gear (amp and headphone), the bigger the differences will be between dacs. I...- thegunner100

Based on how the 1100 sounds, I would love to hear a 1600. But I'm afraid that the price for a 1600 would be much more expensive than what I paid for the 1100.- thegunner100

Well the ZDAC isn't a vintage dac and perhaps you would have been better getting something like the Geek Out or Modi 2. No idea really, as I've only heard the GO but it's really damn good for the size/price. Thanks for the offer on the ride but I'll be driving there myself from Long Island...- thegunner100
