Yeah, I noticed that as well!
But with a power strip, 3 chargers (MacBook Pro and 2x RWA), AirPort Express, and a couple of other cables (power and optical S/PDIF) below there it is hard to keep it all tied up in line.. Please have me excused.

I am a minimalist kind of guy and like clean "simple" setups.. :wink:

Its a great DAC, really happy with it. When i first started using it i noticed the 48hhz button was lit and wasnt massively impressed with the sound, i then found my settings in ASIO4ALL had "Automatically Upsample to 48khz" checked for some reason? So i changed unchecked that and im alot happier. Not sure if i was just getting used to the sound but its spot on now. I auditioned all the major players at Canjam, Benchmark, Lavry and Meko Audio and this was my favourite. My V-Dac was very good but my music has more presence / authority, and the music has a weight behind it that you'd expect from a good system. Im really really happy with my setup now, still keeping my eyes open for rare 6922 valves for the Melos but thats about it.

Good to see you went with it after the thread you wrote up awhile ago.

SilverShadow,

I recommend making your desktop background a photo looking out your window, taken from where you sit. Make it look like your monitor is see through
