Hi Curra,
I know you are one of the admirers of Moon HDAM, I received them today morning from kingwa, and the first thing I realized (very easily noticible)how easily I could crank up the volume against the opa627s, the whole thing sounds more musical than before and unlike 0pa627s its less fatiguing and more laid back, without losing the dynamics.. difficult to explain - I love it..
Btw, I also replaced the stock zero optical cables with some decent canare coax and upgraded the stock rca with CMC (all from from kingwa).
he is extremely good to deal with, infact he sent me the Moon with a 20cm earth lead so that I could easily ground it at the RCA earthing..
Well, Thank you for your recommendations on the MOON and Kingwa, I think I'll be getting the headphone amp from him too..
Btw, can you let me know, how long it takes for the MOON to burn in and sing to its full potential??..
Thanks again..

All i can see is rubber feet like those RP Electronics - Test Instruments , Power Supplies , Inverters , Electronic Project Kits and more!

but nothing fancy like you asked

edit: found these ones too, a bit more elegant http://www.surplussales.com/rubber-p...ecialties.html

there are specially designed feet like this SOUNDCARE ** MERCUR ** AUDIO ISOLATION FEET CONES - eBay 2-Channel, Power Amplifiers, Amplifiers, Home Audio, Electronics. (Eindtijd 16-dec-08 14:28:46 CET) but as you can see it gets really expensive :s it was meant for hi-fi racks i think

http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...213d912924b09f there are golden ones there, 4,5 cm diameter, 1cm height, should be good for you

just curious, noob question, but how much do feet really alter the sound?

Depends on the feet of course.
See-- TipToes and Sorbothane

Look at the thread title. Somewhere between "Review:" and "24"...

Well I've read somewhere on the internetz that vibrations can affect the clock (crystal?) in a dac which can cause unwanted noise. Special feet are mostly use with speakes (which causes lot's of vibrations) though I think.

Hi thee :
I finally received my HDAM and ALPS Pot from LC yersterday . (I didn't received it with my zero (partially modded).
The OPA leed is badly soldered on some pins, will have to resolder it.

I wonder one thing.
There is multiple HDAM (moon, eath, etc..).
How can I know wich one it is, there is no inscription on it...
where can I find a picture showing where you fix the hdam in the zero case (not the pins connexion, but the HDAM itself to avoid it moving in the case...).
thanks

^AFAIK, Lawrence only ships the Earth HDAM.

Most people tend to fit the HDAM to the space between the DAC PCB and the headphone amplifier PCB. There are quite a few images scattered in this thread detailing this, as well as methods of electrical insualtion

There are a billion and one things on the internet. Given the number of people who have had vibrating transformers in their Zero, with no adverse effect on actual sound quality, I think you'll be alright with the standard feet.

Speakers tend to use spikes, so they can sink into the base of the carpet.
