Actually that's a DIY SLA battery pack I made up for the Empirical Audio "Freeway" USB/spdif converter, which is the small black box on top of the Zhaolu. To explain my setup a little bit:
Dedicated silent audio PC with fanless PS w/ Foobar2K/FLAC/ASIO dll
Digital output via Lynx 2B via DIY spdif output jack adapter, OR
Digital output via Empirical Audio Freeway USB/spdif converter with DIY SLA battery PS
Ori-mod Zhaolu D2 DAC
EVS Ultimate Nude attenuators for gain matching/preamp
Bryston 10B active crossover w/ crossover point 140Hz
VAC Renaissance 30/30 300B push-pull amp with AVVT AV32B tubes >140 Hz
Marsh A200S SS amp for <140 Hz
One-of-a-kind custom speakers with Aurum Cantus G3 ribbon tweeter, Focal 7K2 midrange, and Dynaudio woofers, actively bi-amped.
The rack is DIY Ikea Lack rack with drilled-in spikes. Zhaolu sits on Brightstar Little rock, and the audio PC sits on Greater Ranges Neuance shelf.
