CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

801evan has a point, system synergy is so important, i now bacon audio (not triode) tested all these power supplies and the farad was noticed as dark but that was in his one way setup. It gave a very one sided story of a test. I am at this moment experimenting alot with my system and just adding some bypass caps of 0,01uf destroyed the open sound and made it fatiquing and others find it opens it up.

Not saying the one or the other is good or bad just saying you cant apply the same results on other setups. And ears. Plus the fact that dark is good, less rf noise. So if the sound is darker you can adjust other things in your system to add detail. He passed on that completely. Just switched a bunch of powersupplies in the same system it just dont workes like that. It can give an impression but one has to be carefully with that.

Hard to believe people who are admin and founders of the fb Holo Audio owners group and making content that dumps on other brands.

The other admin and Holo owner bought a Dave, barely broke it in and sold it under 2 weeks to be used as marketing material...

Hardly credible. If you still wanna believe em... So be it

@Sajid Amit is this you? Looks like your May and your wallpaper.

But, why bring up Holo in a Chord discussion thread? Rob is a good guy a lot of people have met with and Chord has been around block; Jeff is a person that no one knows personally and there is no electronics company called Holo. Between the 2 I would pay more for less just for a peace of mind that I will be taken care of if anything is wrong with my stuff.

Well i know Golden likes his May stuff, but not sure what he has to do with this.
I believe that was Sajid and not Golden.

A first world problem. Most of us have a box or drawer full of ‘kettle’ leads. Just reach in and away you go! I mostly use my Sean Jacobs power supplies with normal kettle leads!

OK.... you all convinced me.... unfortunately all Kettle Leads are being actively used in the rooms so I'll have to go in to the loft tomorrow and locate my bag of 'shizzle' and grab a few.... if I can gain access without breaking my neck and then if I can actually find it 🙃

Three of Farads own 1mtr UK Connector. They are now on their way to me via Priority Courier. Fingers crossed for a delivery before the weekend.

Get some std leads and go for it. Also good to see when the other come what the change is. See it as a good a b thing. And pull them out of those polluting computers and feed that dave some fresh farad dc 😎

Oh damn. Hehe. Silver would be nice but I’m happy either way.
