iFi audio NEO Stream - Sweet Streams!
Issue too is the mixer doesn't even stay on "none". After 10 mins it will kick out of "none" and be back on software volume control especially when in exclusive mode.- 801evan

iFi Audio Zen Dac 3... Plug In, World Out!
Wow so many upset people her3 came to comment. I appreciate the IFI Dac releases. I love the zen one sig especially since when paired with quality digital player and mqa files, it easily exceeds the Holo May KTE + 1.5mhz hqplayer. Looking forward to future dac releases that has toslink in...- 801evan

Optical is much better and better to avoid USB on mscaler and other chord dacs even on battery.- 801evan

HiFiMan Susvara
Yep. Imagine taking the advice of people who can't hear the difference in cables. Funny thing is the stock Susvara cable is amazing performance and it's sad they updated it to one with black sleeving as it sounds worse. The more you improve your chain the more you will realize the less power one...- 801evan

Even someone prefers the transparency and dynamics of an Esoteric n-05xd hp out (320mw) vs a huge >16w amp with a susvara.- 801evan

HiFiMan Susvara
I use a cdt + ocxo + custom psu and a pro-ject rs2t. But despite using 3k-8k usd cd transports, I've preferred using a tp-link archer with zen stream with custom psu for both to play mqa to an mscaler + dave or tt2 using custom occ silver cables. Even with the original stock susvara cable, it...- 801evan

Yes. Transport and chain is very important. Exactly why ppl think a tt2 or dave cant drive a Susvara. With a good transport and cables, an mscaler + Dave will make a Susvara sing more than a 16w amp.- 801evan

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
Well no amp advertises its current limits on a range of resistance levels. A Go Blu drives the Susvara with very good bass at above proper listening levels with something demanding like Cradle to Grave and doesn't clip. Diablo 2 and Phantom has more power than a Go Blu.- 801evan

Phantom is better than the violectric and burson. There's no problem with the specs including the diablo 2. You only need 200mw for the Susvara.- 801evan

I rest my case on why such people don't hear a difference and wrongly blame other stuff and is proud of it too. Up to the rest to decide if they wanna follow the advice of people who cant hear a difference.- 801evan

Yea I've always said Roon is not a transparent ecosystem. On top of that it needs a noisy pc and a noisy network system. All that interference will just go on top of MQA's quality. Even Roon MQA decoding sounds odd but if his unit has it switching between mqa and 44.1 then maybe he has it on...- 801evan
