I use the Ifi usb 3.0 with my dave when i use it plugged in and find it a very solid choice
draytonklammer, this is very strong praise for the Abyss Phi. I have read some pretty strong praise for the HE-1000 v2 out of DAVE, to the point that I was thinking to pick up a pair at some point. When you mention the Susvara, I'm guessing that those clearly better the HE-1000's, but I haven't really looked into them (I wonder if you've heard the HE1000 v2, and how you'd rank them). To some extent, it may be hard to definitively rank those you mentioned if you haven't heard them out of DAVE (as they may all sound better, more or less), but you've got my attention. I haven't really seen the Abyss headphones discussed in the Chord threads that much, but a quick look at the Phi's and they seem pretty great.
Anyone have any experience with DAVE, their computer as a source and a power conditioner?
Would it be worth buying one?
If so, which? (Without killing the bank too much)
A review of Dave and Abyss Phi will be much appreciated by the community.If I can give you anymore detailed thoughts on anything, let me know!
I am considering a full review of the Chord DAVE driving the Abyss Phi (along with my Phi review finally)
It's the BEST I have heard in a headphone to date. It bests many loudspeaker setups I have heard as well (to my ears -- I love microdetails)
YES, I have tried the Orpheus, Stax 009 (not the 007 mk1 sadly), Susvara, LCD-4, HD800S, etc. -- no flagship has crossed the line like the Abyss Phi for me.
Now with the Chord, it's even better.

A YouTube video will be even better
I suppose - just be yourself. I had to do a promotional video once, and it wasn’t easy to look natural, but with practice, you get there.Currently building my website to release the review on it!
Considering a Youtube video, but I am a little bit nervous about that part.

Having your script, easy to read, like a teleprompter in front of you on laptop can help.
