Does anyone know how much Eddie currently sells the citypulse for?

I've searched his website but can't see a price.

I have received my DA7.2 II and my AKG K701s yesterday. Is the headphone output that weak or are the K701 that quiet? I have to turn up the volume to max to get something like loud, but then it distorts a lot in the highs. Any suggestions? Will another headphone be much louder/less distorted, like the Sennheiser HD650 or Denon AH-D2000?

Check your windows WAV and line out vollume ... it's probably that.

Citypulse play VERY VERY VERY LOUD.

I've now had my Citypulse 7.2x modified by Discovery Hi-Fi in Bangkok (link in my post above) and can only say good things about the upgrade and the shop. For just 2000B ($60USD) for modded caps, power supply and low pass filter I'm very very impressed. Comparing two modded units there we found the power supply upgrade is particularly significant. Really a terrific shop if you're in the area.

Could somebody please explain to me what exactly upgrading the capacitors does, also whats the general consensus regarding amount of burn-in and finally could somebody please more information regarding the blue-tak mod

 

[jmudrick]

Burn-in time seems crazy long. My unit sounds completely different (better) than it did four months ago, with the most dramatic changes kicking in after about three months of regular use.

Any more people buying this new baby and pls give your review. How is it compared to say Benchmark DAC1?
