is it easy to replace the fuse inside the US5 pro？

 

[mitchb]

I have read that the fuse is soldered in so that it is a little more complicated than snapping a fuse out and in. This works for me as I find the Niimbus good as is. I replaced all my other fuses with Synergistic Research purple fuses accept for my tuner and Niimbus. I may or may not do my tuner but I am happy with the results of the purple fuses in all of my electronics.

then I won't consider the niimbus. I have audio magic and sr purple in my system. I won't accept any manufacturer making their products being difficult to replace fuse.

even not for upgrading. if the stock fuse burnt, I have to send it back to the manufacturer to repair？just for replacing the fuse？

Good decision. There are too many "connaiseurs" with their magic fuses who instead of managing the eletrical installation inside their house and the overall power management of their setup, think their magic fuse does all the wonder.
And some of them do it even wrong and then claim warranty.

any small part in the electrical path has significant contributions including a tiny small fuse. I can here big difference with those boutique fuses.

I hear a big improvement with the aftermarket fuses as well but the Niimbus is truly glorious as is.

I am enjoying the Niimbus 5 pro amp. I notice that with the remote control that when I turn down the volume with the remote that the volume appears to go louder for a second as I turn down the volume. Is this normal? When I turn down the volume manually with the volume nob I don’t have this issue.

It's normal, i have this too.

Depending on the gain and the sensivity of the headphone you can experience a slight initial overshoot.

I purchased this! It's unbelievable how good it is. I have the Auralic Taurus MKII which I love but the Niimbus (with the same DAC/Streamer in place) gives a wider stage, deeper bass, and is just smoother without losing resolution. Only had it a bit but this is a top notch solid state amp. And the volume knob... just so nice. It does have that scratchy click thing that I've seen others discuss but its not really an issue - I don't notice it at all when playing music. Maybe if nothing is playing but I don't really adjust volume that much.

Next step susvaras?

Haha not sure the next step - maybe the TC... I also think ZMF headphones would pair nicely with this amp and I've been missing that sound signature ever since I had to sell my Eikons last year.
