I am a very happy Holo owner, I have the May KTE, Bliss KTE and Red.
I am wondering if anyone can recommend a high-quality i2s cable to go between the Red and the May, I know nothing about i2s cables, do I need a specific one or will say any audioquest HDMI cable work?

Also should I run plss off or on, it's currently off because the delay at the start of every track when on shuffle drives me crazy.

I would recommend tubulus concentus i2s cable v2.

Mine gathers dust. But that’s because I don’t dust it enough. It doesn’t affect the sound.

Good luck with your search. They come up periodically. Used ones are better. You don’t have to endure the 500 hour burn in.

Finally ordered a May KTE from Kitsune after about a year and a half of deciding which DAC to get! Very excited to listen but realize it'll take some time to settle in.

I think you’ll thoroughly enjoy it, Matt! Congrats!

There's one on the classifieds in EU for a price that makes me think about whether I have use for a second May!

I saw that! But I am in the U.S and the voltage is different. Is it easy to swap over to 120v?

You have to be willing to open the case up but then I believe it's a matter of flipping a switch and maybe changing a fuse. Anyone in this thread with experience on that maybe?
