I've been on the Steve Hoffman forum Head-Fi 'Sound Science' forum a few times.
There's some very helpful and educational stuff on there. Also some disturbingly militant opinion-holders and fanboys, but it's all entertaining

Just a slight correction.

You're welcome

Just a slight correction.

You're welcome

I didn't want to say anything because I recently got my head nearly bitten off for being critical of that part of the forums, but yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

LOL nooooooo. From the website:

Premium PLUS
4-wire single ended, 8-wire balanced+2 pairs of tantalum capacitors wired parallel to analog output: S$1049 (dual 1960s wire for DC ground section)

I'll reserve comment bcos I have zero engineering background.

Wow! Is this mod a similar design like the hs venom? Cant imagine how out of this world this would sound.

Hehe.. Don't even get me started

Hold on though, don't get it just yet! I wouldn't be surprised if soon there will be the mod with 1950s wires, which makes me feel strangely schizophrenic...

That is soooo cool!

If by "cool" you mean an expensive way of getting new materials for a man thong.
(Sorry, couldn't find a Monchhichi smiley, so I thought a pink Poodle would do instead.)​

Ms new mod

I wonder what those tarantula capacitors do.

 

[Layman1]

I wonder what those tarantula capacitors do.

I believe they act as a kind of buffer so as not to overload the vibranium resistors

 

[bvng3540]

I wonder what those tarantula capacitors do.

The use of tantalum allows for a very thin dielectric layer. This results in a higher capacitance value per volume, superior frequency characteristics

help, i cant stop listening to music, its already 1 am, i have class tomorrow, help...

Just get your blanky and curl up for a good night's sleep...

It has something to do with Marvel‘s Infinity War, but I would have to watch the movie first and then I‘ll tell you!

having aja - steely dan , shows me he did his homework on audiophile albums

i laughed hard with this pic btw , great combo of references

ps : SH forum is good when they talk about the music(ians) and the stories behind the albums etc - but i have to say that it also gets extra dorky/boring when they start talking about which cd/pressings sounds best

Calvin told me that there will be 1950 wires mod when I tested his 1Z mod at Can Jam Singapore

Layman and others...... nearly all 2 channel forums are opinions and not helpful...We have a 4 year old thread going on top end DAC's. My close friend Matt runs it. I was at CanJam with him for those who met me. This is one of the. only decent threads on Audiogon, lol....Over here, it's better I think.
