Thankx alot ,Rudi,it's really helpful........by the way my s/n CLAS02260,any1 confirm on those s/n within a clas 2,0vrms?
Your unit should have at least 1.69Vrms.

It's actually balancing the backend IC side between the -dB & the Rx Mk3 that the volume of the scratching sound increases. I've played around switching back 'n forth between the Rx Mk3 & the standard SR-71b and the SR-71b has less noise but still there. It's just that -dB and Rx Mk3 combination.
It is normal but don't worry. You're good!
Im charging & using the clas -db(out of my computer) at the same time ....and i was shocked that my unit got so hot(50-55c i think,by touching the unit ),im wondering if this is normal ?doesnt feel like normal
And yes, mine runs pretty warm while charging and using it at the same time. It's normal.
Something you guys with the 2v version should try, is controlling the volume from your computer and using the line-out of the -dB directly with your headphones. It won't power high impedance stuff, but the output Impedance is very low, near zero, so it will drive quite a bit and sound good with low impedance headphones. And with some headphones sounds very very clean. No need to add an amp in and make the path of the music more convoluted.
A non-tube dac that run this hot???not an ideal for long-term use for sure,recharged battery doesnt like heat (
The analog signal is not amplified and the volume can't be controlled. There are many good amps for low impedance available in the market, and you shouldn't be stingy anymore since you own $699 DAC.
Yes, yes, I know. I think you kind of missed what I was saying. I have many portable amps including the P-51 and SR-71B - not to mention the fact that I work for a high-end amp manufacturer. I was saying connect your -dB to your computer and use your audio player to control the output to the -dB. So you CAN control the volume.
And this was not a way to be stingy, but a potentially new way to hear your headphones if they do synergize well straight out of the -dB. When you add an amp, you're adding Op amps. That is more stuff for the music to go through. What's the point of an amp? To amplify. But if your headphones can work straight out of the -dB, it MIGHT sound better, and you may not even need an amp. An amp will add it's own sonic signature to the sound. By removing that, you are potentially hearing a cleaner version of the signal.
