I did a search and found no conclusive answer.
It seems most DAC-AH owners who have performed the passive mod find the result satisfactory in terms of eliminating the graininess in treble, however, I found very few comments about improvements in other aspects such as sound stage, timbre, etc.
Also the mod invariably involves replacing the stock coupling caps/resistors with higher quality components, has anyone had the chance to do a more thorough comparison on the result of the passive mod against the buffered version with better op amp and comparable coupling caps?
Thanks in advance.
