There was some discussion in the MOVE thread about noise transmission over the USB bus. The problem lay with the computer and it was solved through the use of a powered USB hub. I use the MOVE with a PowerBook G4 directly connected to the USB port and it is absolutely silent.

Thank you for that. It seems weird, even so. I can understand a powered USB hub solving a problem with a passive hub, but a powered hub being better than plugging into the computer....?

Due to the many requests for the DAC opamp upgrade to the AD8656, I will be able to provide a mounted AD8656 on a standoff, but my opamps will not be available until the middle of October due to availability delays from Analog.

D1 is already out of stock - any idea when it can be back?

If nothing else, the folks at iBasso seem to be exceptional in their communication:

You are correct. Heck, even with the 300 ohm HD580 I will not go past 10:30 or 11:00 o'clock.

Would using task manager to set the priority of the software being used to view the movie or listen to music to "high" help?

how was the sound of 580 with d1?

 

[Monster_Omelette]

Hmmm, I placed an order for one of these back on the 11th, still no shipping confirmation (seems like it takes 3-4 days though), although now I wonder if that delay will affect my order...

My D1 is out on the truck for delivery today. I ordered over the weekend. Received email notification on Tuesday and should arrive today. Im excited.

 

[Sisyphos]

I received my D1 a few days ago and although I think it's a great combo (particularly with the HD650) I'm selling it right again to afford a big DAC.

If you're interested please have a look at my offer.

I received a D1 from a fellow Headfier today for a bit of comparison to my Corda Move. Is it normal for the leather casing to bulge out a bit at the seam? As it is not mine, I thought I should ask if this is a defect.
