I'd agree to just blue for all, just so that incredibly neat set up matchs up on Richard's mega rig....

No accounting for taste, i loved the Amber. From different manufacturers every where, normally its LED brightness with people expecting a dimmer switch on the side...
Thank you for the option though Justin.
That PCB layout maybe functional but an OCD work of art.

Hope things are ok State side with you and yours..

Kind Regards
David

Yes, i will contact everyone who has previously ordered a Gilmore Lite, and ordered the Dedicated Power Supply recently, to see if they want the old (amber) or new (white) LED color

and blue (richardloh)

Hi @justin w. , do you have an estimate for when we might hear from you? I'm excited to try out the new power supply :)

Hi Fudge,

No worry .. my order also made on 11 June 2020 and had not received shipping notification which I have no doubt Justin and his team are working on them.

Cheers and hurray !

I just got hold of the fine gold Caps so i can hold off until i get the GR PSU before trying them. Bonding my grounds helped a lot in SQ by the way i bought some stackable banana test leads and crocodile clips for £6 and clipped them to the RCA shells. Tryed the IFI AC purifier ground point and worked nice. I went further and bought the Puritan ground master and a dedicated earth rod which is the only safe way to do so and got some more detail...

It shouldn't be called a rabbit hole in audiophile circles.. its a Rabbit warren the size of Texas...

So close now, a nice early Christmas present from Justin....

Dave 😁

Now its just on filtering duties again post balanced isolation transformer. I am using the Grounding rod / Puritain ground master in the garden. The cheap stackable banana test leads confirms a more elegant solution like your custom GH cables. I am using 2 Uptone 1.1s PSUs on your ZEN Blue and Chord Qutest. I thought i may have a ground loop to the Gilmore Lite so experimenting worked into the mains AC puifier ground point. Bonding all Zen Gilmore and Qutest to a ground from the RCA shells

Complicated, technical and a profession for some people ..grounding. This was me seeing if it helped on my gilmore setup and it has... A little OT but Capacitor swapping grounding have boosted my SQ.
If people want to try i think its a cheap experiment and go from there.
Justin's new PSU may change things but currently great..
Cheers
Dave

Understood, thanks!

ZEN Blue and Chord Qutest.

So ZEN Blue serves as a wireless receiver that sends digital data to your Qutest?
