Think these are big, look at the audio note silver or copper caps or the jensen caps.LOL even bigger at the same value. Compared to the 50 cents cap, every custom made cap IS big.

Post one of the Alo thread pretty much has all the pics one needs anyways to gauge the size of the caps:

Big? you should see Mundorf M-Cap Supremes. Coca Cola cans more like it LOL!

It looks like even the inside of the dock was well thought out in terms of Cap Placement etc.

Pending...

 

[trose49]

Anyone else get wooden or new portable V-docks? I would love to read others thoughts and impressions?

Reviving thread...as I have an 80GB iMod with portable Vcap and Jumbo Cryos on the way! I am SOOOOO very excited! Also ordered up a Hornet to power it all and a Yo Tank to protect it.

Can't wait to report back on my thoughts!

I honestly did not notice any sq dif after about 200 hours. Most changes were 0-100hrs with some slight improvemnt in the highs from 100-200hrs.

The Bass freq seem to tighten and go deeper after about 50-60hrs I would say.

Sounds amazing.

I am going to set up a music server (19"LCD>Apple TV>DAC>Raptor>DT990 (600ohms) with an external DAC for my new Raptor that is coming soon.

But I am going to try the V-dock as a source first and compare the sound of the HR-2 and the Raptor with a source that I am familiar with (V-Dock).
