Can you telling us more about the recabled job on your phoenix and on your xlr connector with the resistor on it ? The fact of single end sound better than XLR is a stop for me atm.

Anyway,my problem,the amp started farther back than any amp I've owned.Muddy base,harsh highs,no soundstage.The dac {Northstar Mk 2 } was there from day one,I can't explain.Now after many hours of burn in IT has finally happened.MUSIC IS BACK,GOTTA GO. |

Yes the sound improved,everything cleared/cleaned up.Instruments have there own distinct spot. Instruments so REAL.My music sounds incredible. On the soundstage,what I hear is me ON the stage with the band.As opposed to being in the audience of a large music hall. Remember,this is just what I'm hearing.Would I buy it again?Yes.Would I recommend the Phoenix to others?You bet. |

I traded my Havana to Tyson for his DAC8 plus a couple hundred bucks, I may or may not upgrade it to Ref1 later by soldering in the fancy new DSP. Pretty happy with the deal, I'll have full cast in a week or so hopefully. |
