I noticed it, but since i don't have a legit muses, so i can't take photos even if i wanted to.
 
Let's wait for turokrocks to get his, it's already being shipped.
 
We'll see if he's able to get a picture taken of the gain switch.

So I found an article on opamps that had a specific section on the AD797 and its output distortion compensation. Apparently the AD797B was designed to have a 50pF capacitor connected between pins 6 and 8. So that's what I did.
 
 
 
Yes, I also installed a fan. Turns out when you take the voltage selector switch off of its mount the space it occupied is perfect for a small fan.
 
As far as the mod goes I can say that I honestly believe that I have tamed the AD797 on the Essence One. The sound quality, at least to me, has improved all around.

My 100mF capacitors on the ad797 didn´t worked, it didn´t help the sound. I am going to try 220nF later. What op are you using for the buffer? The 49720 is a bad combination if it is also used in the lpf.

Thanks Tim... but I thought there were a few more muses user in this thread.... I could be wrong.

Lets wait then....

Thats unfortunate

Turockrock is also the only one I know of that got/will get the muses ed. However, I am sure there are some more users following this thread right now but haven't replied to it - or simply aren't registred to head-fi just yet

Hi Kenion, me too... I register to this particular thread just to find out about this. Though I already monitor and read all your postings from day one. Ha!

Turockrock.... It's now back to u.... as the only hope.

It's just weird that I can't find any info about this gain jumper anywhere, google all sorts of photos and website - no go as to where its located. Did a one to one internal comparison with base/plus vs muses, also can't tell the difference. Also even the official muses E1 manual is nowhere to be found... Including official asus website. I got a feeling its a simple solution that doesn't require much mod on the E1 board. But still have to see the real thing to confirm that.

Leave them a message. I do that quite regular and they always respond to me there.

The gain jumper is near the headphone section of the MUSES unit. From what I know, it's not really mod friendly (circuit gain will be set by SMT resistors) and the jumper pads won't be part of the standard or plus edition PCB (a PCB revision was made for the jumper).

Guys...I am feeling the pressure...its too much....

I was right into buying the Muses new Xonar One edition for my Denon AH-D7100 headphones but then found that there is a new version of Soloist amp on the market - the Soloist SL.
 
I will be happy to hear any tip or experience from people here!
 
Thanks.

Noted with thanks.

I guess one of the representative from asus just replied one post after yours.

Hi asus!

Thanks for your special appearance and response to my inquiry.

Due to the location where I'm from (Singapore), there is a MOQ imposed to our distro which makes it difficult for them to bring in E1 muses. As such, i'm left with few options - either I parallel import one without warranty or get an E1 base version (with warranty) and mod it to muses.

I already chosen the latter and done with getting the muses 01 opamp. However the next mod which is the gain control now may seems a tad too difficult for me to implement. I might have to look at the schematic or replicate that portion of the revised PCB onto a stripe board or self fabricate and get the necessary parts, e.g. Jumper switch, Resistors (non-SMT) and hardwired that small PCB into my PCB. Which is why I need to find out more before executing this in real time.
