With several months of hearing, how does it compares to Zhaolu 2.5 versions ?
I have had both CS4398 and 2 AD1852s
Still have one AD1852 which is modded with
-LM4562s
-AD08 (power board)
-new main 4300µF 35V caps + rubycon ZLH on the power board
-rubycon ZLH on analog stage (100µF)
-Muse bipolar caps removed
-1% appaired film caps (MKP2 0,15µF) instead of 0,1µF green film caps
-1% appaired PIO
-47pF 5% silver micas (as written on the board)
-470pF 1% polystyrene caps
-1000pF 2,5% FSC polystyrene caps
-clarity caps PX 6,8µF soldered on gold plated RCAs
-2mm blackson film
-resoldered fuse socket
-removed headamp
-Teflon "shielded" snubber
Would you think a Citypulse DA 7.2 will sound better ?
Have the issues (background sound and so on) been fixed from factory ?
What are the good and cheap mods to do on it ?
First aim will be to use it as dedicated DAC behind a Teac P-500 transport.
Thanks.
