Just about to try my Infinity with the Uptone Regen. Will let you know how it turns out. Cheers


Recently ordered one myself Michael.  Won't get it until September though.

I'm out of town but it will be awaiting me upon my return next week. Good times ahead! Cheers

  No idea about the impedance. I actually tested the 1G, 2G and 10G against each other. 
 
Even after a lot of burn in, the 1G was limp and thin sounding. Really boring. 
 
2G is what I use and I think it has good soundstage and decent details and air, etc. Miles better than 1G. 
 
10G is better at everything and sounds the most natural but because of the price/cost I would say the 2G is the value champ. 


+1.

If you use a printer cable, you will only be able to perceive everything in 2D. Also, your DAC will begin to print paper.


And if you listen carefully you'll find that the sound is made up of a bunch of little dots...

Hmmm...Let me try out today using the 2G cable on my printer.
Let's see if it has more definition, clarity, saturation and depth...

So if the 1G sounds limp, thin, and boring, how does a printer cable sound?

 
HP cables are bassier, Epson more trebly and Canon has great midrange

Plug the power section to the LPS... cleans up the edges better.

I almist feel there are two Pulses. One is a bit lacking in the bass department and needs to be paired with warmer headpones and the other cersion does not.

Either that or people are just different.
